An insider has claimed that William and Kate have “done their level best to let George have as normal a childhood as possible”.
However, now, the source said that it’s “time to start the preparations”.
‘Wants to make his parents proud’
Speaking to Closer, the source claimed: “They have done their level best to let George have as normal a childhood as possible but it’s now time to start the preparations.
“He’ll be 13 next year, so they believe he’s ready. You can feel a real shift happening with George, it’s clear he’s starting to fully grasp his place in the bigger picture and what’s wonderful is that he doesn’t seem to be daunted by it.”
They added: “Luckily he’s the type of kid that wants to make his parents proud. And he does. The way he handled himself for the Remembrance outing was impeccable, he earned full marks from everyone that observed him and by all accounts he’s going to be attending a lot more official engagements in the coming months.”
