The "Household of the Sovereign" refers to the official residence and administrative body that supports the reigning monarch in a monarchy. This household is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the royal family, including ceremonial duties, public engagements, and personal affairs. It typically includes various departments, such as finance, communications, and event planning. In the context of the British monarchy, the Household of the Sovereign includes key figures like the Lord Chamberlain and the Master of the Household. These officials oversee the staff and ensure that the royal family's needs are met while maintaining traditions and protocols associated with the monarchy.
