Royal Hemophilia is a reference to Hemophilia B, also known as Factor IX (9) deficiency. This is a genetic disorder that can be inherited. Also near 30% of the Hemophilia B cases result from spontaneous mutations and are not inherited at all. That being said, once the mutation has occurred, that individual can pass the mutation on.
