Heartbreak for Kate Middleton as William Makes Family Future Decision
Despite speculation that King Charles III may have reservations about how his son and daughter-in-law are raising his eldest grandchild, it’s evident that Prince William and Princess Catherine are charting their own parenting course. For Prince George, who stands second in line to the throne at 10 years old, there’s much growth ahead amidst ongoing familial tensions regarding his upbringing.
Princess Catherine reportedly feels heartbroken following a disagreement with Prince William over where Prince George should attend secondary school. Sources suggest William favors Eton College, departing from the traditional Gordonstoun School attended by older generations, including both William and his brother, Prince Harry. Catherine, however, opposes this choice, recalling her own difficult boarding school experience and expressing concerns about George facing similar challenges.
King Charles, known for his adherence to tradition, prefers George to follow family footsteps and attend an elite boarding school. This traditional stance has sparked disagreement with Catherine, who sees such institutions as out of step with their efforts to modernize the monarchy.
Insiders reveal that Catherine’s objections have been a point of contention in the royal household, leading to lengthy discussions between the couple. Despite her initial reservations, it’s been reported that Catherine has acquiesced to William’s educational preferences for George.
Amidst personal challenges, including Catherine’s recent cancer diagnosis and treatment, she has maintained contact with her children via FaceTime while William cared for them at Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor estate.
Looking ahead, Prince George’s future as second in line to the throne necessitates separations from the royal family during travel plans starting next year. Royal protocols dictate that only certain members can travel together, meaning George may travel separately from William, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis when he turns 12 in July 2025.
While King Charles appreciates tradition and duty to Britain, Catherine’s views on modernizing the monarchy differ significantly. Her commitment to her children’s well-being and educational choices remains steadfast, even if it leads to occasional disagreements within the family.
Well, at least there’s one thing that these two can agree on. There’s a new report that says Prince William and Prince Harry have been able to see eye-to-eye over this one thing in their lives.
Prince William And Prince Harry Agree On This One Thing Only
Apparently, they both wholeheartedly agree that their father, King Charles, could have done a much better job in raising them and supporting his two sons throughout the years. But sadly, that never happened.
One source close to the situation says that both William and Harry have agreed that their father has always been emotionally distant, which has made it hard for them to bond with him and especially during their younger years.
However, one insider says that wasn’t the case at all and that King Charles was the best father he could possibly be, despite the circumstances they dealt with while growing up.
The insider put it this way, “I don’t think he was emotionally distant. That was one of the great myths and one of the great untruths that Diana propagated, that Charles was cold and not fun with the children, and that she was the fun one.”
Of course, the internet certainly had a lot to say about the matter. Some have even commented with, “I don’t really get who Charles is. He seems to have always embraced royal duty. He’s not lazy.”
“So basically he wanted to be honored as the heir, have his mistresses, and breed the heir/spare. He didn’t want to be a husband or father? I suppose most kings haven’t played those roles either. The 20th century didn’t suit him.”
Was King Charles Really That Bad of A Father?
Another royal fan wrote, “Yes, this was never so evident as during the coronation when William had to grit his teeth in pledging allegiance to Charles. William seems to actually hate Charles, while Harry seems more disappointed.”
And then there was this comment as well: “Diana was right about Charles parenting. Charles also disrespected his first wife from the get go.”
So far Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the matter just yet. Watch this space for more.
