The royal family has long had close ties with Scotland, with the King and Queen taking their annual summer break at Balmoral Castle.
You'll often see male members of the Firm, including King Charles, wearing kilts while carrying out engagements in the country.
The British royal family even has its own Balmoral tartan, a grey, black and red design created by Prince Albert in 1857, and can only be worn with permission from the King.
The only other person allowed to wear the Balmoral tartan is His Majesty's Piper, whose kilt and plaid are made in it.
As Holyrood Week or Royal Week in Scotland begins on 2 July, HELLO! takes a look at some of our favourite photos of the royals wearing kilts.
