Teenagers across the country will likely be full of stress as they collect their GCSE results today, a feeling that even the Royal Family will not have been immune from. And while the Royals may have had the privilege of attending some of the country's most prestigious schools, with both Prince William and Prince Harry having attended the £42,501 a year Eton College, that doesn't mean they all achieved straight A*s and As. Attending schools such as Eton College, Gordonstoun, and Marlborough College, the royals are a rather mixed bag when it comes to academic success, something that's likely true of families up and down the country.

Prince Harry apparently has "no intention" of rendezvousing with his father King Charles III and brother Prince William next month. It was reported just last week that the Duke of Sussex, 38, would engage in "peace talks" with his estranged family members as the royals mark the first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death. However, these plans have been seemingly ripped up and binned, with a source telling The Mirror that their relationship remains "firmly rooted at rock bottom" and will not be burying their grievances.

Mirror.The cook also revealed that even for Christmas, the trio will eat with their nannies in the nursery until they become of age to be more presentable during public affairs of state.“The children always ate in the nursery until they were old enough to conduct themselves properly at the dining table,” McGrady explained.The food connoisseur worked for the late Queen Elizabeth for about 15 years and previously dished all about the meals that she used to eat on a daily basis.The royal, who died last year, once claimed on his YouTube channel that the monarch loved to munch on jam sandwiches during high teatime.“The queen was served jam pennies in the nursery as a little girl. She’s had them for afternoon tea ever since,” McGrady said.When the queen would spend time at her summer residence, Balmoral Castle in Scotland, fresh strawberries were picked from the garden and used for the jelly spread.Butter and jam make up the delicacy and are cut into small circles the size of an old British penny.

Members of the Royal Family have hugely important titles which date back centuries - and it is no different today. But what you may not realise is that royals such as the Princess of Wales or the Duchess of Edinburgh don't just have one title, but several.

Mirror reports. Charles plans to chisel out specific roles for his son and heir Prince William, as well as Princess Kate and Queen Camilla.“His Majesty is very clear.

King Charles III is set to hold a royal summit to decide the future of the monarchy, according to royal sources.

As students around the country anxiously open their A-level results today, it may serve as some comfort to know that just like them, even members of the royal family have suffered with the same nail biting nerves before opening the all important envelope. From King Charles to Kate Middleton and even the most recent royal to sit her exams last year, Lady Louise Windsor, there has been no shortage of variety in grades either, with some of the senior royals performing better than others.

Soon the Royal Family will mark the first anniversary of the Queen's death, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are said to have "not been invited" to the gathering, according to a royal expert. Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96 on 8 September 2022 at Balmoral in Scotland, after reigning for 70 years. Historian, writer and broadcaster Tessa Dunlop spoke exclusively to OK! and said there's going to be a "royal gathering at Balmoral" for the family to commemorate the Queen in private, without any public events planned.

As a member of one of the most famous families in the world, going incognito presents quite the challenge. But the likes of King Charles and Prince William are, after all, only human and crave some peace and quiet without photographers surrounding them.Though their privacy is usually respected, some have been known to take drastic measures to ensure they get some peace.

The Royal Family’s time at the Balmoral Estate will undoubtedly be filled with physical pursuits such as long country walks, deer stalking and horse riding, with quieter moments punctuated by picnics, barbeques and fly-fishing in the River Dee. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond spoke to OK! about how the royals typically spend their time together in the Highlands.

Kate Middleton and Prince William have received more new titles.

Kate Middleton uses a special secret trick to avoid being spotted in public when she wants to head out on a private outing, it has been revealed.The Princess of Wales, who is married to Prince William, both 41, was outed by former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown in a thrilling tell-all from her latest book, The Palace Papers.Tina claimed that the princess opted to set her alarm unsociably early every day just so she could slip out of the royal households and get some "me time".The royal then decided to head out to her favourite public spots so she could enjoy some time alone before anyone else appeared, according to the magazine journalist. By setting off for some solo adventures at dawn, Kate could then also avoid photographers and reporters, as well as regular people going about their day.

Balmoral in the Scottish Highlands is always a magnet for the royals each August as the extended family gather for their annual staycation. But this year’s get-together will be tinged with sadness - not only is it the first year without the late Queen Elizabeth II hosting, but it’s where she passed away, just 11 months ago, on September 8. However, one expert has told OK! that the first visit of King Charles' reign will also be far more "relaxed" as the royals were "in awe" of the late monarch.

King Charles III, Prince William and Princess Kate are figuring out how to honor the late Queen Elizabeth II on the first anniversary of her death later this year.
