Prince George, the 10-year-old eldest son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, is set to undergo a significant royal protocol change next year when he turns 11 on July 22.
This milestone marks the beginning of preparations for a strict rule that will come into effect once he reaches the age of 12.
According to insights shared by Graham Laurie, King Charles’s former pilot, Prince George will have to adhere to a protocol similar to that of his father, Prince William, when he turned 12 in 1994.
Specifically, this protocol involves separate travel arrangements, requiring Prince George to travel alone in a different plane.
Laurie elaborated on the historical precedent, stating, “We flew all four: the Prince, the Princess, Prince William, and Prince Harry, up until Prince William was 12 years old.
After that, he had to have a separate aircraft, and we could only fly all four together when they were young with the written permission of Her Majesty.”
Detailing the transition in travel logistics, Laurie recalled, “When William became 12, he would fly normally in a 125 from Northolt, and we would fly the 146 out with the other three on.”
This protocol underscores the strict security measures and operational procedures observed within the royal family, ensuring the safety and protocol adherence of its members, particularly those in direct line to the throne.
As Prince George approaches this pivotal age, preparations for his solo travel arrangements reflect the ongoing traditions and adjustments within royal protocol.
With Prince George currently second in line to the throne, following his father Prince William, and his sister Charlotte third, these protocols serve to safeguard their well-being while maintaining the integrity of their royal responsibilities and public engagements.
As the countdown begins towards this significant royal milestone in 2025, the focus remains on Prince George’s upbringing and preparation for his future role within the royal family, guided by longstanding traditions and protocols established over generations
In a jaw-dropping decision, Kate Middleton and Prince William have announced their plans to move out of the palace with their children.
The royal couple’s surprising move has stunned the public and royal watchers alike.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, known for their dedication to royal duties and public appearances, have decided to relocate to a more private residence to provide a more normal upbringing for their three children.
This decision marks a significant shift in their lifestyle, signaling a desire for greater privacy and a focus on family life.
As the news spreads, many are eager to learn more about the couple’s new home and how this change will affect their roles within the royal family.
The move underscores the evolving nature of modern royalty, balancing public responsibilities with personal priorities.
Earl Spencer has rejected Meghan Markle’s request regarding Althorp House, stating firmly that the estate belongs to his son.
Meghan had expressed interest in the historic family home, which holds significant sentimental value and history as the Spencer family residence and the final resting place of Princess Diana.
However, Earl Spencer, Diana’s brother, emphasized that Althorp House is intended for his son, Louis Spencer, Viscount Althorp, as part of the family’s legacy.
This decision underscores the Earl’s commitment to preserving the estate within the direct line of succession, ensuring its heritage and history remain intact for future generations.
The rejection has drawn attention to the complexities of managing historic family properties and the responsibilities tied to aristocratic traditions.
Princess Diana’s childhood home of The Althorp Estate is a prestigious and historic property in Northamptonshire but it is not set to be inherited by either Prince Harry or Prince William.
This expansive estate which covers over 13,000 acres has been the Spencer family’s ancestral home for more than five centuries will be passed to the prince’s cousin Louis, son of Earl Spencer, Diana’s younger brother.
Despite having three older sisters, 30 year old Viscount Althorp, Louis, will inherit the estate due to the aristocracy’s system of primogeniture, which sees titles passed down to the eldest son, rather than the firstborn child.
The estate is where Diana spent her younger years and serves as her final resting place. Over the years, Althorp has been carefully preserved and remains a testament to the Spencer family’s legacy.
At present, the Althorp Estate is owned by Charles Spencer, the 9th Earl Spencer, who has overseen numerous events and exhibitions at Althorp, including tributes to Diana’s philanthropic work and life, the Express reports.
The actress spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about the royal connection to one of her looks at the show’s season 3 premiere on May 1

Bridgerton is tapping into a piece of true royal history when it comes to the wardrobe for its latest season.
Speaking at the season 3 premiere of the series on May 13, actress Florence Hunt revealed to PEOPLE that she had the honor of wearing a dress cut from the same fabric as one of Princess Diana’s dresses.
“I wore this beautiful blue dress, and I believe it was a cut off from Princess Diana’s dress that she wore at some point,” Hunt, 17, tells PEOPLE at the New York City premiere.
“A cut off from one of her dresses that they made for Princess Diana and they made a dress out of that fabric, which was mental. It’s crazy, yeah,” she adds, noting it is favorite look her character wears in the new season.

Princess Diana Has a Surprising Connection to ‘Bridgerton’ — and Her Brother Approves!
The star, who plays Hyacinth Bridgerton in the Netflix series, added that the wardrobe team on the show “let me keep a little piece of the fabric” after filming.
“I just thought it was amazing. I felt like I was wearing a piece of history,” Hunt tells PEOPLE.
Some of Princess Diana’s most iconic style moments from over the decades include her wearing statement blue dresses.
In 1981, the late princess wore an ethereal off-the-shoulder Bellville Sassoon ballgown at a Victoria & Albert museum exhibition in London, while four years later, she dazzled in an emerald blue Emanuels gown while dancing with her husband, the then-Prince Charles during the Melbourne royal tour.

The Real Story of Princess Diana’s ‘Revenge Dress’
Princess Diana also famously sported a light blue strapless chiffon gown by Catherine Walker while attending the 1987 Cannes Film Festival, followed ten years later by wearing a sparkling blue shift dress by Jacques Azagury in one of her last looks in London in 1997.
Bridgerton costume designer John Glaser listed other style icons influencing the third season’s looks as Audrey Hepburn from My Fair Lady for the character of Eloise Bridgerton, and Grace Kelly and Katherine Hepburn for Franscesca Bridgerton, per British Vogue.

Along with Princess Diana’s memorable fashions, Bridgerton has also been inspired by the late princess’ childhood home.
In December 2020, show creator Chris Van Dusen revealed that the Bridgerton family home was influenced by the Spencer family’s ancestral home — Althorp House — after he developed a connection with it while making the show.
“The interior of Bridgerton House was inspired by my visit to Althorp when I was developing the show. Elegance. Opulence. And that #staircase,” he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter) at the time.
DIANA revealed the real reason her marriage with Charles ended shortly before death, says a royal expert.
Royal author Ingrid Seward spoke on The Sun’s Royal Exclusives Show about a conversation she had with the late princess before she died in 1997 aged just 36.

The royal expert told The Sun’s Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson, Camilla was not the reason their marriage broke down, despite the stories.
“She had this spectre of Camilla in her head the whole time, she was obsessed, yet when I last spoke to her I brought Camilla up, and she said ‘Oh it wasn’t Camilla that ruined our marriage’,” said Ingrid.
“She said, ‘It was the people around my husband’.
“I thought to myself ‘It wasn’t Camilla? You’ve been complaining and complaining about her all these years’.”
The author continued: “But she changed tack, and said it was the environment in which keeping a royal marriage together, you’ve got to be very strong, and probably far more mature than she was.”
When asked about Queen Camilla stepping up for King Charles since his cancer diagnosis, Ingrid hailed the royal for taking on extra duties.
“She led them into King Constantine’s memorial service, but it was different on Easter Sunday and people really respect her,” said the expert.
“She was 50 when she got into this family and now she’s 76. Unless you’re born into it, it’s quite hard, the Windsors have massive energy.
“Charles as a young man used to run everywhere, Prince Philip would run everywhere.
“Camilla doesn’t have that kind of energy, and it really takes it out of her and I think a lot of people have a lot of respect for her.”
Harry should be William’s key adviser. That’s out of the window. It would break Diana’s heart says royal expert
His Majesty bravely opened up about his diagnosis after doctors found the disease while he was in for prostate corrective surgery in January.
Princess Kate has also been receiving preventative chemotherapy after her shock diagnosis following abdominal surgery earlier this year.
While the pair have been leaning on each other throughout their recovery, Queen Camilla and Prince William have taken on more responsibilities.
The future heir has also been a pillar of strength for his wife, as the couple continue to keep things normal for their three children.
INGRID SEWARD: Prince William is a pillar of strength for Kate
STEADFAST when his family needed him, William has proved himself as a man and future monarch of strength and compassion.
While he might not have been present during Kate’s courageous video address on Friday — make no mistake, he has been by her side every step of the way.
William has stepped up with school run duties and provided a “great source of comfort and reassurance” to his wife.
But he has also been a comforting and reassuring presence for the public.
From leading members of the Royal Family at the Commonwealth Day Service to enjoying cheerful banter with youngsters on a youth centre visit, he hasn’t put a foot wrong.
Just this week he visited Sheffield to highlight his Homewards project to end homelessness in the UK.
Even then there were few chinks in his facade — but Kate was clearly on his mind.
“She needs to be sat here to hear this,” he smiled, when the discussion turned to the challenges of young families.
But ultimately he is only human.
To have your father and your wife diagnosed with cancer within such quick succession is heart-shattering.
It’s a remarkable insight into the character of this young man that he has been so incredibly brave.
Theirs is a very private turmoil which has been brought into the public arena by nature of their roles as future King and Queen.
William must feel the weight of enormous responsibility, both personally and for the monarchy, of which he is now the public face.
But he knows his most important role is that of dad and husband.
He will make that his priority.
This is a distinct difference from the ways of the past, where your royal role came before the role of spouse and parent.
Think back to when the Queen was young.
WILLS’ PRIORITY
It was a man’s world then — and she was forced to abandon her children in a way that William is determined not to.
William and Kate waited until the school term was over and their children were home before making their public announcement.
They needed to be prepared.
In this, they will have had the wholehearted support of Charles — who knows what it feels like to be brought up by nannies.
William was also acutely aware of the lack of his own father’s presence in his life, especially when things went wrong.
In 1991, he was accidentally hit over the head with a golf club when he was at school and Diana was having lunch in her favourite restaurant San Lorenzo.
The call came through that William had been bashed on the head and they thought he might die so it was very serious.
Both Charles and Diana rushed down to Ludgrove.
William was taken to the Royal Berkshire Hospital and then to Great Ormond Street Hospital and Diana went with him.
But ever a man of duty, Charles prioritised his engagements.
William is determined to do things differently.

KING Charles was “so miserable” married to Diana but Queen Camilla has given him a “backbone”, according to a royal expert.
Royal editor Ingrid Seward revealed on The Sun’s Royal Show that the key to Charles and Camilla’s strong relationship is “laughter”.

Speaking to The Sun’s Royal Correspondent Matt Wilkinson, Ingrid shared: “Charles used to look so miserable when he was married to the gorgeous Diana – how could a man look so miserable married to someone so beautiful and lovely – but he was obviously very unhappy.
“He just looked so happy around Queen Camilla.
“And you can tell that she’s sort of given him a backbone.
“She is really a glass half full, and he is a glass half empty – and she said that – and she makes him laugh.”
Ingrid shared how King Charles and Queen Camilla’s London home Clarence House is a “really happy place” and it is “full of laughter” and a “little bit chaotic.”
The royal editor added: “I think that they really have a laugh.”
“And I know that being royal really separates you from the rest of the world – it’s a very lonely place to be.
“And if you have someone that you’re not getting on with, it’s even more difficult.”
Ingrid claimed that Queen Camilla is also “so supportive” of King Charles, which is something he “never had” growing up.
She continued: “She praises him all the time, ‘darling you were wonderful’, ‘your speech was wonderful’.
Diana told me the real reason her marriage to Charles failed just before she died – and it wasn’t Camilla
“And he needs that, because in his youth, he never had that.
“So in his dotage, I suppose you can say, he’s really being praised.
And you can see how happy he is when he’s meeting the crowds.
“I’ve never seen Charles look so joyous as he was over the Easter weekend, shaking hands and smiling, and every walkabout he’s done since he became king, he looks a really happy man, despite the fact his health isn’t great at the moment.”

King Charles married Lady Diana Spencer on Wednesday, July 29, 1981.
They tied the knot at St Paul’s Cathedral, in a traditional Church of England wedding.
It was thought to have been watched by a global TV audience of 750 million, and the UK had a national holiday on the day.
However, the couple split in 1992 and finalised their divorce in 1996.
King Charles and Camilla’s highly-publicised romance began at a party.
They were introduced in 1971 by Charles’ college girlfriend Lucia Santa Cruz and quickly bonded over their love of polo.
How King Charles’ year ahead may look
THE rejuvenated King could have a busy year. Here are some events he could attend…
MAY 8 and 21: Buckingham Palace Garden Parties.
MAY 21-25: Chelsea Flower Show. Charles would follow in his mother’s footsteps — she visited 50 times during her 70-year reign.
JUNE 6: The 80th anniversary of D-Day in France and UK.
JUNE 15: Trooping the Colour birthday parade in London.
JUNE 17: Garter Day parade, Windsor Castle.
JUNE 18-22: Racing at Royal Ascot.
JULY 3: Holyrood Week. The Ceremony of the Keys sees the monarch receive the keys from the Lord Provost of Edinburgh and be welcomed into the “ancient and hereditary kingdom of Scotland”.
OCTOBER: Two week state visit of Australia.
They started dating almost straight away and attended a number of polo matches together.
However, when King Charles left for the Royal Navy they split up, and Camilla got engaged to Army officer Andrew Parker Bowles, and they tied the knot in 1973.
Their love didn’t last and they divorced in 1995, with Camilla going on to marry King Charles in a civil ceremony in 2005.
Charles revealed on January 16 that he needed treatment for an enlarged prostate. While in hospital doctors discovered cancer and he later had treatment.
Buckingham Palace sources said the monarch is feeling “positive”, and medics “optimistic”, after he was able to go on a walkabout at Easter Sunday.

The mansion, overlooking Biscayne Bay, has a 124ft pool, chef’s kitchen and cinema room.
An insider said: “David and Victoria are loaded but buying a £55.6million house with cash is impressive.
“They adore it and want to spend as much time there as possible.
“It’s their dream property and the culmination of all their hard work.”
David, 49, and Victoria, 50, have an impressive property portfolio.
As well as an £18million flat inside Miami’s One Thousand Museum building, bought in 2020, they own a £31million townhouse in Holland Park, West London.
The pair also bought a £12million converted barn in the Cotswolds where they spend a lot of time with their children, Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 19 and 13-year-old Harper.
The Sun revealed this month that they were buying the Miami base.
The Beckhams were said to be worth more than £450million at the start of this year.
David coins it in from brand partnerships and licensing deals and Victoria’s fashion firm has grown profits.

David launched Inter Miami CF in 2018 and the football club, with star player Lionel Messi, is now reported to be worth £803million.
It’s no “coincidence” that the boys have chosen these women
THEY say a boy’s first love is his mum and Victoria Beckham’s influence certainly runs deep when it comes to her sons’ pick of partners.
That’s because the women who catch the eye of Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 19, all seem to share some striking similarities to Victoria.

From their shared passion for fashion and showbiz connections to their elegance and even their looks, it’s clear the Beckham boys gravitate towards women who are in fact ‘dupes’ of Victoria and ones who mirror her qualities.
Psychologist Emma Kenny says their choice in partners speaks volumes about the bond they have with their mum:
“This pattern suggests that Victoria has not only set a high standard but has also provided a blueprint for what a strong, supportive, and independent partner looks like,” she explains. “Her sons feel safe and understood around women who echo their mum’s qualities.
“It highlights a deep respect and genuine affection for the values and attributes she’s instilled in them.”
And Cruz Beckham seems to be floating on cloud nine with his new girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, who is ten years older than him and even has a look of Victoria.
Brooklyn’s wife Nicola Peltz, 29, appears to be following in 50-year-old Victoria’s footsteps with similar fashion choices and a shared love for letting loose on the dance floor.
Even Romeo’s new hot date, Gray Sorrenti, 23, daughter of Mario Sorrenti, one of the most iconic photographers of all time who once shot Victoria in a shoot for sports brand Reebok, mirrors his mum with her love of fashion and photography.
Emma believes it’s natural for men who admire their mums to gravitate towards women who have the same, or very similar, traits.
She adds: “By connecting with women who are like their mother, they are likely to feel reassured that their relationships will be based on the foundations they enjoyed growing up.
“Essentially, the Beckham’s sons’ choices speak to the comfort, guidance, and unwavering support Victoria has given them, which they now seek to replicate in their own relationships.”
Victoria has always been a powerhouse who has somehow managed the roles of celebrity, entrepreneur, and mother with a seemingly effortless poise.
She embodies not only glamour, but resilience and dedication to her family.
Emma explains: “Victoria’s influence extends far beyond her professional achievements.
A keen eye for success can all be drawn as parallels between Nicola and Victoria
Emma Kenny, TV psychologist
“It’s the way she at least seems to stay grounded, despite her fame and the way she’s fiercely protective and loving towards her children.
“When boys grow up watching such an inspirational woman leading their home, they will have a tendency to seek those same qualities in their own partners.
“Take Brooklyn, for example. His relationship with Nicola feels like a reflection of what he’s seen in his mother.”
Nicola is an American actress and model, best known for her roles in films like “Transformers: Age of Extinction” and the TV series “Bates Motel” and she married Brooklyn in a lavish ceremony back in April 2022.
Life is a runway
Both Nicola and Victoria have a keen eye for fashion.
Victoria is a renowned fashion designer with her own successful brand, while Nicola is often seen sporting high-end designer outfits and gracing the pages of fashion magazines.
The pair are also no strangers to the limelight, often invited to high-profile events.
Much like Victoria, Nicola exudes a sense of chic elegance and neither of them are caught letting their polished yet trendy looks slip.
Victoria has spoken openly about the struggles she and David have endured over the years
Emma Kenny, TV psychologist
And although Victoria has 33 million followers on Instagram, whilst Nicola has 3 million, the pair often share the importance of family time together with their videos and snaps to showcase their strong bond.
Emma says: “Nicola, like Victoria, is not just stunning but is also confident and accomplished in her own right, pursuing her ambitions as an actress and now taking strides in directing.
“The qualities of elegance, assertiveness, and a keen eye for success can all be drawn as parallels between Nicola and Victoria.”
Before his most recent fling with American photographer and model Gray, Romeo was dating Mia Regan up until recently who also has similarities to Victoria.

Mia has a distinct fashion flair and a thriving social media presence, an element Victoria herself has mastered with ease.
Emma says: “The admiration for a woman who is comfortable in the limelight yet shows a real, down-to-earth nature is not just coincidence.
“Victoria’s balance between the two worlds, the public and private, has clearly left an impression on Romeo, inspiring him to seek that balance in his own life partner.”
Gray and Victoria both have connections to the fashion world.
This again will mean that are considered attractive as life partners
Emma Kenny, TV psychologist
And while Gray is behind the camera, capturing striking images for high-profile brands and magazines, Victoria is a fashion designer with her own successful label.
VB designs are known for their modern, sleek, and elegant aesthetic, whilst Gray’s photography also embodies a contemporary style, often capturing moments that are both raw and sophisticated.
Emma says: “Where Gray is concerned, she is again a reflection of Victoria to some degree as she is a talented photographer which shows her creativity, ambition, and natural talent and independent nature.”
And the same goes for Cruz’s new love interest with Jackie, 29.

Is it normal to end up with a partner who is similar to your parents?
By Emma Kenny, TV psychologist
Psychologically, it’s not unusual for men to choose partners who reflect their mothers.
It’s about familiarity and comfort, qualities that have been nurtured within the family home.
Here with Victoria, as a public figure and a mother, has shown her boys that you can embrace ambition and elegance without losing your sense of warmth or love for family.
For her sons, this has set the benchmark of what a supportive and accomplished partner looks like.
Victoria Beckham exudes charisma and confidence, both on and off the runway and Jackie shares these traits, making her a captivating presence in social and public settings.
And they both certainly have a taste in clothes as the pair have been spotted wearing similar outfits.
Emma says: “Cruz’s new girlfriend Jackie Apostel even looks like a younger version of Victoria and is apparently making waves independently in the fashion world, so like Victoria she combines elegance, ambition, and drive.
“All of the girls who the Beckham boys are dating seem to have very strong family values reflected in their own ‘lived’ experience.
“This again will mean that are considered attractive as life partners.
“Even though Victoria has spoken openly about the struggles she and David have endured over the years, they have for the most part had an incredible marriage.”

It was a big occasion for the Beckhams‘ with Inter Miami competing in the MLS Cup play-offs, having won the Eastern Conference.
Miami got off to a fast start as Luis Suarez scored in the second minute, and they went on to win the match 2-1 with another former Barcelona player Jordi Alba grabbing the winner.
Beckham, 49, was in a good mood even before kick-off and he planted a kiss on his daughter Harper, 13, who looked less than impressed.
Cruz, 19, was spotted back alongside his dad having watched Lionel Messi score a hat-trick for Inter Miami last week with his girlfriend Jackie Apostel.
Miami’s win over Atlanta means they need just one more victory to progress to the Eastern Conference semi-finals.
Eight teams qualified for the play-offs with Atlanta winning a wildcard match in order to take on Inter Miami in a best of three.
The next game will be hosted by Atlanta on November 2 and if the home team win a third match will be played – back at the Chase Stadium.
Inter Miami already have one foot in the semi-finals and will have to win that tie and the Eastern Conference final to qualify for the MLS Cup final.

Beckham’s side have only once qualified for the MLS play-offs, in 2022, but lost in the first round to New York City FC.
This time around they are one of the favourites to go all the way after winning their conference by eight points, while Messi has hit brilliant form with 22 goals in 23 games.

On Wednesday’s instalment of This Morning, Alison Hammond decided to drop a crude confession when speaking to the Loose Women ladies.
Dermot O’Leary was left red-faced during Wednesday’s instalment of This Morning after Alison Hammond’s confession.
It comes after the programme headed over to the Loose Women studio where Coleen Nolan was informing people what was coming up on their show later on.
She said: “Dawn French has done it, would you hang a naked picture of yourself up? We shall be revealed all next.”
As the studio audience seemed to give a sound of interest at the upcoming raunchy topic, Alison decided to share a confession.
She said: “I’ve got naked pictures everywhere all over my house.”
Joking, Dermot quipped: “Of me?”
Alison’s confession caught Dermot off guardColeen, who was still on camera, burst out laughing at their conversation as Alison continued to give people an insight into her home.
Dermot, shook his head as he joked: “Please, that’s too much!”
Shrugging her shoulders, Alison replied: “I don’t see anything wrong with it.”
However, Dermot managed to steer the conversation away from the nude topic as he continued on with the show.
Coleen found Alison’s comment hilarious
At the beginning of the episode, Alison shared that the This Morning dog Buddy had paid her a visit at her home.
Dermot shared an adorable snap of his co-star with the labrador as they posed together in her garden.
He joked: “Never mind the dog, look at the grounds. Come on look at that, look at the fence at the end.”
Laughing, she replied: “That was for the dog actually. The person who owned the house before, she had a dog so she left that fence in place.”
Buddy joined the show earlier this yearThe show first introduced Buddy to viewers earlier this year and revealed he was training to become an autism assistance dog.
Jan Kiley, Chief Operating Officer for Dogs For Autism, says: ‘We train them for children and adults with autism. Training is all about manners and teaching them about what is acceptable and what isn’t, but also giving them lots of interaction with lots of different people and going to different places, but being very careful not to push them too far.
“Then in the future, around 12-18 months, during the training he will learn to do things specifically for autistic people.”
At the time, he didn’t have a name and allowed people to tweet in with suggestions, with the majority opting for Buddy which the bosses seemed to agree with.
