Kate Middleton and Prince William have reportedly ensured their eldest son, Prince George, has a stable and normal school life.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, who have admitted their children to a £47k per year school in Lambrook, have ensured normalcy especially during Kate’s cancer diagnosis.
Speaking to OK!, Royal expert Katie Nicholl says: “When Kate was in hospital, George was on the football pitch playing with his friends.”
She adds: “That sense of normality, of keeping the family going at one of the hardest times they’ve ever gone through, was important. The school gives them a great infrastructure and a great support network, and allows the children to live a regular childhood – a low-key, happy, albeit privileged childhood.”
Adding on to Kate’s plans for George’s future, the expert suggests: “Kate’s preference is for George to be at a co-education school, so he can be with his siblings, which is what Kate experienced at Marlborough with her sister, Pippa, and brother, James.”
She noted: “It was a very happy school life for her, but William has very fond memories of Eton, which has a long history with aristocrats and members of the royal family.”
