Prince George,Princess CharlotteandPrince Louisare starting their summer.
Kate MiddletonandPrince William’s three children recently completed their year atLambrook School, where the triostarted together in September. After the family’s big move last yearfrom London to Windsor, this will be the first full summer for the Prince and Princess of Wales and their kids based atAdelaide Cottage.
George, 9, Charlotte, 8, and Louis, 5, may not have class again until September, but they’ll be plenty busy in the next couple of months.
“Someone did ask me the other day, what would you want your children to remember about their childhood?” she said. “And I thought that was a really good question, because actually if you really think about that, is it that I’m sitting down trying to do their maths and spelling homework over the weekend?”
“Or is it the fact that we’ve gone out and lit a bonfire and sat around trying to cook sausages that hasn’t worked because it’s too wet?” she continued.
Prince William and Princess Kate shared a rare glimpse at their off-duty life in asurprise videoreleased in honor of their 10th anniversary in 2021. The video opened with the family walking up dunes on the beach. They are also seen running around — at one point, Prince William pops out of the trees to chase Princess Charlotte, much to the delight of Prince Louis!

In addition to possible domestic getaways — favorite spots include theIsles of Scillyor the Lake District — Kate and William might take their kids abroad. One popular royal destination is the Caribbean island of Mustique, which the Queen’s sister Princess Margaret famously called “the only place I can relax.” The Prince and Princess of Wales have also had a family vacation in Jordan, where theyposed for their 2021 Christmas card photo.
Each summer, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis join members of the royal family in Scotland. Queen Elizabeth traditionally spent the summer months at Balmoral Castle, where she died in September at age 96. It’s likely that King Charles and Queen Camilla will continue the royal tradition, with plenty of visits from their family members.

It’s also possible that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will accompany their parents at a sporting event or two. Last July, George made hisWimbledon debutin the Royal Box to watch the men’s final with his parents.
Prince George also has an exciting event on the calendar this month: on July 22, he’ll celebrate his 10th birthday.
While lots of fun is surely in store, Kate previously revealed that her three kidshelped with farm animalsduring their school break.

It’s been a big year for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, who have stepped into the royal spotlight more since their grandfather became monarch. In addition to attending King Charles and Queen Camilla’s coronation on May 6 — with George taking on the role of a Page of Honor during the crowning ceremony at Westminster Abbey — the cute trio appeared again during theBig Help Outdays later. The day of volunteering with a local Scout troop saw Prince George using a drill to work on a project, Princess Charlotte painting and Prince Louis shoveling dirt into a wheelbarrow.
