Kate Middleton admires one of the royal family’s most daring members as she remains firm in her decision about the next phase of the royal family.
The Princess of Wales is a loving mother of three children (Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis) and has not shied away from prioritizing her interests over royal tradition. Protection of children is a particular trait that Princess Diana, who had a more rebellious streak with the Firm, shares with her daughter-in-law.
Although Kate is known for honoring royal protocol and tradition to the letter, the future Queen appears to have put her foot down for Prince George, as Diana once did for Prince William and Prince Harry.
While it was reported that George will be heading to the prestigious Eton College in September next year, Kate wanted her son to enroll at her alma mater Marlborough College. Kate did not have a pleasant experience at Eton and found that she thrived at Marlborough.
However, The telegraph latest report implying royal 12-year-old is heading to Marlborough.
This move seems reminiscent of the one Diana made, a major break in royal tradition after seeing how miserable her husband Charles was at Gordonstoun, according to the book Dianaworld: An Obsession written by author Edward White.
The headmaster of Gordonstoun had “publicly urged that the princes receive a comprehensive education”, but Diana “rejected all these suggestions”. She “insisted that the boys be sent to Eton College” as all the men in her family had attended the school.
