Prince William reveals Prince Louis’ hilarious remark about school

Prince Louis and his siblings are back at school after a long Christmas break with their parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton. The family of five experienced a very tough 2024, what with their mother battling cancer, and one can only hope they’ll have a less-complicated time of things this year.

As Kate is now cancer-free, many believe she will return to her regular royal duties. However, reports suggest that she will continue to focus on George, Charlotte, and Louis, as the last year has changed her perception of what is important in life.

George, Charlotte, and Louis all attended Lambrook School, and as George will be the first to graduate, a huge discussion between William and Kate has reared its head. Meanwhile, the parents are doing their best to support their children, but according to William, Louis and his siblings usually say a surprising thing when they come home from school.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis had a tough time of things last year. Their mother, Kate Middleton, received her cancer diagnosis in February, 2024. Though she and William gave their children an explanation of what cancer was, since they are very young, it’s fair to imagine that it was hard for them to fully grasp.

To everyone’s joy, Kate revealed in September that she was cancer-free. The entire family finally got to take a deep breath of relief, and William and Kate made sure to spend a lot of quality time with their children over Christmas.

What will come next, no one really knows, though reports suggest that William and Kate, despite their royal duties, are intent on focusing on family life and their children. Speaking to Hello Magazine, royal expert Ingrid Seward claimed that William and Kate will be sure to treat their children to some extra special surprises in 2025.

“Kate will be wanting to spoil them a bit, because it’s very frightening for children when their parents are that ill, so I think they will be up for a few treats this year,” she told Hello! Magazine.

“I think William and Kate might take the children skiing during the Easter holidays and will probably be planning a big summer holiday, because as far as we know they didn’t go anywhere last year.”

Prince William and Kate Middleton “actively encourage” their children to be playful in public

The Prince and Princess of Wales have made no secret of their desire to give their children a normal childhood. Being royal children means a life and future very different from the norm, but as far as their everyday life goes, William and Kate are doing their best to be “ordinary”. According to royal and body language expert Judi James, that goes for every aspect of their children’s daily lives.

“George, Charlotte and Louis are not only allowed to be playful, fun, spontaneous, and even cheeky in public, they are actively encouraged by their mum and dad, who often look at their most proud and most doting when they are doing so,” James told the Daily Mail in 2023.

Though the expert acknowledged that William and Kate have a “unique” parenting style regarding their children’s future lives, the freedom to have fun is vital for the kids.

“William and Kate’s parenting duties were always going to be unique as they’re inducting a prince, princess, and future king into the rules, traditions, and formalities of the royal family as well as allowing three small children to have as much fun and freedom as possible as they do so,” she said.

In 2016, before Prince Louis was born, William talked about how he and Kate wanted to keep things as normal as possible for their kids despite their lives being anything but normal.

“As far as we are concerned within our family unit, we are a normal family,” William said in 2016. “I love my children in the same way any father does and I hope George loves me the same way any son does his father. We are very normal in that sense.”

Prince George, Princess Charlotte & Prince Louis’ school

While George, Charlotte, and Louis have royal relatives, they also have loved ones from more humble beginnings. Their mother’s parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, aren’t from a royal background, and that has had a vital impact on the trio’s childhood. During a primary school visit in 2017, Kate spoke about how her parents’ way of raising her children has affected her own.

“My parents taught me about the importance of qualities like kindness, respect, and honesty, and I realize how central values like these have been to me throughout my life. That is why William and I want to teach our little children…just how important these things are as they grow up. In my view it is just as important as excelling at maths or sports,” Kate said.

One setting where George, Charlotte, and Louis are getting to be really like normal kids is at school. They all attend Lambrook School, but in a few years, Prince George will leave his siblings and move on to another school. This, it’s said, has caused William and Kate to clash – and it could be speculated that the same thing might happen when Charlotte and Louis are set to switch schools.

Traditionally, royal children have either been home-schooled or, as was the case for King Charles and his two sons, sent to boarding school. Charles boarded at Cheam School in Berkshire, aged just eight, making him the first heir to the throne to attend a “civilian” school, while William and his brother, Prince Harry, both attended Ludgrove School, also in Berkshire and then Eton.

George has been spotted alongside his parents looking around Eton College, the same prestigious boarding school both William and Harry attended. Eton’s tuition is around £46,000 ($59,000) a year. Though Prince George won’t join the school until he turns 13, children have to be registered for the school during the year that they turn 10, according to the school’s website.

Kate Middleton “heartbroken” over school decision

George could well become the first in the next generation of royals to attend Eton. Time will tell if his siblings will join him, but at the moment, they’re enjoying their time at Lambrook. And while Eton might be an outstanding school, Kate reportedly has mixed emotions about sending her son to boarding school.

According to In Touch Weekly, Kate has reluctantly agreed to George’s wish to be “just like his father” and attend Eton. But it’s not something she would’ve wished for in the first instance due to her own negative boarding school experiences.

Meanwhile, George will be able to visit his family at weekends, an insider said. Even though the school lies only a five-minute drive from the Waleses’ Windsor home, Kate is worried that she will miss George dearly.

Kate’s own experience at boarding school was far from ideal. She first enrolled at the all-girls boarding school Downe House, where her parents, Carole and Michael, reportedly paid around £28,000 in tuition. But it soon became a nightmare for the future queen.

A friend at a later school, Gemma Williamson, previously told The Daily Mail, via Yahoo: “Apparently, she had been bullied very badly, and she certainly looked thin and pale. She had very little confidence.”

Prince William reveals Prince Louis’ blunt remark about school

Prince Louis, the youngest of William and Kate’s brood, is currently at Lambrook. The six-year-old is exploring and finding new hobbies, and perhaps he will follow in his older siblings’ footsteps and in taking an interest in sports. George and Charlotte have both been seen with their parents at the Wimbledon tennis tournament, and Kate has been known to have taken them with her to play tennis as well. For Louis, though, music appears to be his main passion.

In December, when speaking with Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood and Dire Straits lead guitarist and singer Mark Knopfler, William revealed that his youngest son had found the drums – which makes quite a lot of noise at home.

“My youngest is learning the drums that’s why I spend my entire life with my fingers in my ears,” William joked.

While Louis appears to have taken a keen interest in the drums, the same thing might not be said about school. At least not if you listen to Prince William, who earlier this week delivered a hilarious update on what his youngest son and his two siblings are telling him after school every day.

While meeting local primary school children outside the Tiber Football Centre in Toxteth outside Liverpool, William told the students that he always asks his children if they had a good day at school and what they had learned.

Their answer? “Nothing,” William revealed.

Prince William and Kate Middleton’s plan for Louis to avoid “Spare curse”

Not much is known about how Louis and his siblings are doing at school, and that surely is a good thing. William and Kate won’t hurry to expose their children to their future royal duties, though they have joined their parents for some outings in recent years.

Prince Louis and his sister, Princess Charlotte, of course, find themselves in the same position as Prince Harry was to William, and the estranged prince has even gone on record to state his concern that Louis will suffer the same fate he did. However, according to one expert, there is little risk that the Prince and Princess of Wales will ever let Louis fall foul of the so-dubbed “Spare Curse,” but rather encourage him to walk his own path in life.

“I imagine they will encourage Louis to explore life outside the royal fold… it could be the military, but it could also be working in the charity world or whatever he finds appealing after his education is finished. I’m sure they will encourage him to go to University, which they both enjoyed and where, of course, they found love,” former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond told the Mirror in April last year.

The royal expert continued: “And from there they will want him to find a life that is meaningful to him as well as appropriate for the son of a future King. They will try to ensure that he feels he is living a life of value, irrespective of his place in the line of succession, and that will probably involve service of some kind as they have emphasized from the start that they want their children to understand that having empathy with others is not only a kindness but is rewarding as well.”
