Kate reveals homemade gift from 80s popstar that Prince George is 'obsessed' with

It was revealed last week that the Princess of Wales will not travel with Prince William to Singapore in November for the third annual Earthshot Prize Awards ceremony. Instead, the devoted mother-of-three will stay at home in Windsor and support Prince George, 10, through his school exams - those of which will decide if he enters a top-ranking school such as Eton College. Despite some initial sadness that the Princess will not be in attendance at the awards ceremony, after she showed her support during the first year in London and the second in Boston, a leading royal expert has heralded the move as the "best decision".

It is a huge challenge to name any new royal baby, especially if that youngster is destined to one day be king or queen. Almost every royal name has at least one, if not more, links to previous royals. Whether it is William, George, Henry or Elizabeth, it is important that there are no overriding historical associations which will affect their future.

Kate Middleton was once left "disappointed" by William when he cancelled "big plans" at the last minute. It's hard to remember a time when the Prince and Princess of Wales weren't a married couple, but the pair had a brief rocky road before their fairy-tale ending. When Prince William and Kate Middleton first started dating, there was one report that he left her in tears after cancelling an important plan last minute.

Thanks to her extensive and impressive work in the field of early years development, the Princess of Wales is in the perfect position to practice what she preaches at home with her own children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. As well as this modern approach, Kate has her own family upbringing to look to which is undoubtedly a source of great strength as both she and Prince William juggle their official duties with raising their young family. It is these normal family experiences which former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond feels will stand Prince George is good stead for his future as a senior working royal, and subsequently as King.

Mirror, “Kate does not want to disturb the youngsters’ schooling and works hard to ensure the trio have a stable home life in preparation for their royal careers later down the line.”One insider close to Middleton noted to the Daily Beast on Friday that she “is tirelessly working on behalf of the monarchy.” “The fact is that her youngest child is 5, so I don’t think she should be expected to hop on a plane every two minutes,” the source added of the royal’s absence.Middleton previously attended the ceremony in 2021 and 2022. William created the Earthshot Prize in 2020 to spread awareness abut environmental changes.

The Princess of Wales is known for highly creative and artistic side from drawing and painting to cooking and photography, Kate has an impressive array of crafty talents.

Kate Middleton has found a new confidant in the royal family following years of feuding with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

In the fishbowl of royal life, there are very few people those at the very top can trust, so it must be a great joy and a relief to find an ally behind palace walls. That is exactly what has happened for the Prince and Princess of Wales as they have both formed a close bond with the Duchess of Edinburgh over the years thanks to her dedication to duty, devotion to her charities and all-round discretion.

Catherine, Princess of Wales (aka Kate Middleton) often finds herself traveling throughout the UK and sometimes, across the globe, for her job as a senior member of the royal family.

Prince George is someone in a unique set of circumstances for more reasons than one. Not only is he a member of an unbroken chain of monarchy that stretches back over 1000 years, but his entire life has already been mapped out for him.

Hot on the heels of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the Invictus Games in Germany, it was the Prince of and Princess of Wales’ turn to shine. While Kate stepped out for important engagements in the UK, William jetted across ‘the pond’ for the Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit in New York, armed with his ambitious goal to save the planet via the ten-year project. But there was heartache behind William’s heroism, arriving on Prince Harry’s adopted US ‘home turf’ amid no sign of a reconciliation between the two brothers.

King Charles, Prince William and Prince George — made its debut.“The royal couple suspected that the entire institution was conspiring against them. As they saw it, the evidence was all around them.

The Princess of Wales is continuously praised for the way she has expertly navigated life in the Royal Family and made a name for herself in her main areas of interest, such as early years development. While she brings her own character to the role - whether it is sitting on the floor to join in with activities or trying any local foods offered to her - there are key figures who have been instrumental in creating the future Queen we see before us.

Just like his father before him, Prince George was born at St Mary's Hospital in Paddington.The day after he was born (July 23), the little prince made his public debut outside of the Lindo Wing in his parents arms.The couple happily spoke to the world's media who were waiting outside the hospital and revealed everything from how George had a "good set of lungs on him" to how he had Kate's looks but already had more hair than Prince William. While presenting their son to the world's cameras was clearly a daunting process, the Prince and Princess of Wales had a clever plan to ensure that their departure from the hospital ran as smoothly as possible.

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth, the country does not look set to have another Queen Regnant for many years as the next two heirs to the throne are male.The first female in the queue is eight-year-old Princess Charlotte who sits in third place behind her father and elder brother. While it is incredibly unlikely that Princess Charlotte will ever come to the throne, it is fair to say that she stands a far better chance of wearing the crown that her great aunt Princess Anne ever did, despite being in an incredibly similar set of circumstances at birth.The reason behind this is down to a significant change the late Queen introduced which alters the rules of primogeniture and who can overtake who in the Line of Succession.The adaptation to the rule meant that Princess Charlotte was not leapfrogged by younger brother Prince Louis when he was born in 2018.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are well-known for their dedication to the roles, as well as their loveable and supportive behaviour toward one another in public. Very few of us need reminding that the royal couple met when they were both students at the University of St Andrews in Scotland in 2001. While they both started out as just friends, their closeness quickly blossomed into a relationship.

Prince William inspired a temporary ceasefire with his feuding brother Prince Harry during the mourning of their grandmother Queen Elizabeth II one year ago. Following the relocation of Harry, his wife Meghan Markle – plus their two kids Lilibet and Archie – to California, essentially ditching their royal duties, familial relationships were certainly not at an all-time high when the late monarch passed away, aged 96.

Everyone knows that the Royal Family must abide by a series of strict rules and codes of conduct at all times, whether that is adhering to specific protocol, attending events or arriving in a certain order. While those seem enough to remember, there is another rule that affects Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

The Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Edinburgh are well-known for their close bond and are frequently seen chatting and laughing together at royal events.The two families both live near Windsor Castle - Adelaide Cottage and Bagshot Park respectively - and have spent years dedicating themselves to their royal duties and responsibilities. While the Prince and Princess of Wales have Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis to look after, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh have raised their two children, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex.

Very few of us need reminding that the Prince and Princess of Wales' love story began at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.The couple met during their first year when they were both living at St Salvator's Halls of Residence and would go on to move in together. While the pair have now been married for 12 years and share three children, their first years together sound idyllic.The couple lived with two other housemates in the second year of their studies but ultimately made a home together for their final two years in a private home that belonged to one of William's cousins.
