It’s never a dull day in the world of members of the British royal family! Prince William and Princess Kate are doing everything possible to ensure their kids have a normal school life. Sounds easy? Not when you’re raising a future monarch and paparazzi have a habit of popping up uninvited. So, the Wales royals have come up with a game plan for Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Let’s dive in for the deets!
Princess William: Prince George to Switch Schools
Princess William’s kids are currently studying at Lambrook School in Berkshire, a short drive from their cozy home, Adelaide Cottage. But with George turning 11, he’s about to move on to secondary school. Prince George and Princess Charlotte previously attended Thomas’ Battersea, a prestigious institution with a £10,450 per term fee.
The top contenders for secondary school? It could be Oundle School in Northamptonshire or St. Edward’s School in Oxford. However, that’s where things get tricky! The Wales royals wish their son doesn’t become a constant headline. They have already mastered the art of being present at school events without stealing the show.
Meanwhile, Royal expert Richard Palmer recently revealed that William and Kate are trying to blend in as much as possible. They are “keen not to make life difficult” for other parents at Lambrook. He shared, “At Lambrook School in Berkshire, where all children are pupils, discreet security is in place to protect them.”
The Challenges for The Wales Kids
Still, their royal status is enough to intimidate everyone from parents to those pesky rogue photographers. Remember the picture of George playing soccer? Talk about an invasion of privacy! Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, addressed the challenges.
She believes that security is extremely crucial for the Wales kids, especially since taxpayers are footing the bill. She added, “I think Kate and William are very conscious of how much it costs the taxpayer to guard them.” Come on, having kids in three different schools across the country? It’s a logistical nightmare!
So, while the dedicated royal parents try to keep their kids lowkey, the challenges persist. Don’t miss out on more updates on Prince William and other royals at Soap Opera Daily. What’s your take on this celebrity madness? Drop your thoughts in the comments down below.
