It seems that Kate Middleton and her sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, are on a losing streak. Days after it was revealed that Markle caved to Prince Harry‘s relentless request to have a home in London, Kate Middleton was forced to give in to Prince William.
It has been confirmed that Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, fought for years over one thorny issue: Prince George‘s education.
Middleton and the heir to the throne did not go to the same schools. Prince William and Prince Harry, like all members of the British royal family, were sent to the fanciest and priciest boarding schools in England.
The monarchy believes these educational institutions are perfect for shaping the future kings, queens, and leaders of England.
Middleton never wanted her three children — Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis — to attend boarding schools.
The future Queen does not have a positive opinion of these institutions. A source claimed that Middleton finally caved into Prince William’s endless push to have their oldest son attend boarding school, but deep down inside, she feels like a failure.
According to the person in the know, Kate Middleton thinks having her son in one of these institutions is “against her best efforts to modernize” the most archaic of institutions in England — the monarchy.
Middleton is also upset by the decision because she will dearly miss her son. The insider said, via OK!US: “Kate thinks sending him to such a stuffy, upper-crust institution goes against all of their efforts to modernize the monarchy. Plus, she’ll miss George desperately. She and William argued about it for years, but he has finally won.”
It has been claimed that Kate Middleton is trading in her heartbreak for her son’s happiness. Prince George, who is preparing to take the entry test to enter Eton College, is “reportedly happy about the move.”
The source went on to say that Prince George wants to be like Prince William and added: “He wants to be just like his father, though Kate finally gave in, she’s still heartbroken.”
Another reason Catherine, Princess of Wales, is unhappy about the move is that she had a terrible experience at boarding school.
The source stated: “She was horribly bullied at her first boarding school, and can’t bear the thought of George suffering through that.”
Middleton is worried about Prince William’s next move — Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis to boarding schools.
The source stated: “There’s also the worry that William will insist the other two kids be shipped out next. Kate knows this is all part of her ‘royal duty,’ but there’s a lot of tension between her and her husband right now.”
The monarchy wins again.
