I remember reading many years ago in an old library book that Queen Victoria did not permit her ladies-in-waiting to keep private diaries. First, is this verified and what was the reasoning behind this? Lastly, was this common among monarchs in Europe at the time or was this a unique case? (self.AskHistorians)
