One of those contributing to the new show, Ailsa Anderson, a former Press Secretary to between 2001 and 2013, revealed one way in which Kate tries to give her children a sense of normality: “Apparently Catherine has a WhatsApp group where she communicates with other parents, so it’s very much, quite a normal upbringing.”

Meanwhile, psychotherapist, Lucy Beresford echoed similar sentiments as she explained how the Royal couple make a concerted effort to ensure that their offspring can experience childhood somewhat removed from the spotlight. She said: “I think William and Kate, making sure that George, Charlotte and Louie have these normalising experiences where they just interact with really normal people, actually gives them that grounded sense that they are human beings like the rest of us, they’re not rarified, they’re not elevated and it could hopefully dilute that sense of ‘I’m invincible’.”
Some experts mused that Kate’s parenting decisions come from those that were instilled during her own upbringing, with the Daily Telegraph’s Royal correspondent, India McTaggart explaining: “She’s brought so much from her Middleton uprbinging and her family values, that I think has completely informed the way that she is raising the next generation of Royals.”

Amid the latest discussion surrounding their parenting techniqes, Kate and William will soon face another huge decision when it comes to Prince George’s education. With the 11-year-old fast approaching primary school leaving age, his parents will soon be tasked with the tough decision of where he will continue his education throughout his teenage years.
A number of top schools have been mooted recently, and one of those reportedly high on the list is Princess Kate’s former school, Marlborough College that she attended from 1996-2000. Another option could be his father and uncle’s former boarding school, Eton, that has seen a huge number of prominent British figures attend down the decades.
