Ideas
sannajopink I have had some of those same issues. The buffs are really weird -like the "hot" swordfight with non-romantic family members - gross. 😖
And my husband and wife have bad buffs because she is Queen, and the husband views her as a rival even though he has the title King. It is creating all sorts of bad things in their relationship. The wife feels compelled to apologize all the time, he critizices her poor leadership, and their perfect relationship keeps deteriotating even though I used cheats to get it back to 100% it drops down way too quickly.
Their personalities and prefrences all lined up. Everything was in perfect order until she was promoted to Queen. I wanted them to be a good, loving team. NOT Rivals who despise each other. It is ruining this entire pack for me. I feel so extremely disappointed. 😞
I want an option where we can choose to have close family/friends NOT be Rivals. I think that would help so much.
I might have found a solution to this by talking to a modder (Tyjkor! THANKSSS!!) who told me that it looks like the issues were caused by the "Poor Leadership" relationship bit. Basically, you have to edit the relbit off of the characters to stop the bad behavior. I have played all day and NO BAD MOODS! No anger at all! It seems like this relbit got added to everyone in my household. I am not entirely sure if it's EVERYONE or not I haven't yet checked--I was just TOOOO happy to have my precious sisters back to normal again!
I used MCCC to remove the relbit from the sisters (and assume it would work to remove it from anyone else it got added to!) I am not sure if there's a specific cheat to remove this relbit or not but it was super easy with MCCC. (I hope it's okay to give instructions here--if not please remove them mods!)
--ensure testing cheats are on
--make your Queen your active sim
--click on your Queen's husband (King)
--open the MCCC menu
--scroll down to the bottom to "Relationships" and click to the next menu
--scroll down to the bottom to "Relationship Bits" and click to the next menu
--click "Remove Relationship Bit"
--scroll through the bits to find the one that is from the Royalty and Legacy expansion--it should reference something about "poor leadership"
--click it to remove it
After that you should be able to close the windows and your sims relationship should return to normal. Not gonna lie, I did edit a few of the other relbits from the negative behavior out too so that it was like resetting them to their original friendship/relationship dynamics without any hurt past feelings. (I used cheats to remove the negative milestones and such too lol I just couldn't handle my babies being so mean to each other!)
I hope this helps you get your precious Queen and King back to their loving selves! <3
(PS I did NOT find any relbits that would remotely explain the horrifying act of becoming flirty with your family members thus far. Thinking it's a different issue than this one all together!)

sannajopink Thank you so much!!! I was able to follow your excellent instructions and remove the Poor Leadership and a couple other negative bits. It has improved their relationship!
The husband's career panel still shows his wife as a rival, and while that is annoying, I am hoping at least now their relationship can stay good! I currently have him as her advisor and that has given them a positive relationship bit.
Thank you so much for your amazing help!!!! 🌠
