| Are the royals lives heavily scheduled? Do they take time off? |

| Extremely scheduled, for the working royals. See here - the Court Circular shows all of the official engagements they have each day. https://www.royal.uk/court-circular |

I want to know what they argue/get upset about.
Normal people fight over money, family budget, household duties. The royals have none if this to worry about. So do the young royals get pissy about old fart royalty protocols? Do they argue about who has to do what appearance? Surely there some sort of angst |

| I don't think anyone on DCUM can really offer insight into that! But I'm sure they do argue about fairly normal stuff - money (on a different scale to most people, but other than the Queen, lots of the royals receive an allowance so I'm sure there is some carping about who gets what); work - complaining about boring events they had to go to, trying to get others to go to boring events instead of them; schools; and probably lots of gossip about other royals/their friends. |

I'm very well off, though not royalty and my parents argued all the time about the help and whether or not they were, well, helpful enough or not. They argued over what things to sign me up for, which experts to hire to teach me things, etc. |

| Who all lives in the palace? Or do they all live in different castles on one property? |

Have you watched The Crown? According to that portrayal there is plenty to argue about. |

I wonder what their daily routines are like. Do they have people dress them every day?
Also don't royals change clothes for different meal times? Can Kate just walk around without makeup and in her lululemons? |

Going to luncheons and kissing hands. Lots of work. |

William & Kate live in a 20-room apartment in Kensington Palace Harry & Meghan will be living in a 21-room apartment in Kensington Palace next door to them - right now they're staying in a 2-bedroom cottage on the grounds called Nottingham Prince Michael and Princess Michael of Kent live there as well. The Duke & Duchess of Glouchester moved out to let Harry & Meghan have the apartment below and its being renovated. Those are the most important royals. 
Prince Charles lives 2 miles away with Camilla in Clarence House which is attached to St. James Palace. William and Harry used to live with him there until 2011 and 2012 respectively. 
The Queen of England lives in Buckingham Palace which shares grounds with St. James Palace.
