keeping a breast of things

Prince Philip lowered his newspaper.
"Our Kate is in trouble," he pronounced sagely and not a little roguishly.
Queen Elizabeth The Second sniffed.
"She's done nothing wrong," said the Queen.
"You don't think she's been a little indiscreet?" prodded the Prince.
"She is entitled to her privacy just like anyone else." insisted the Queen.
"But disporting herself nude in public Queenie?" challenged the Prince.
"She has a divine right," said the Queen.
"She has a divine left too," mused Prince Philip.
The Queen gently lowered her head into her hands.
"Oh Pheeleep," she murmured, "you've done it again."
Behind them a footman discreetly dropped a tray of tea things with a loud crash among the rhodedendrons.
