Diana's sacred 'work and play' parenting rule is Kate's secret weapon, says royal expert
ok.co.ukPrince William and Kate Middleton are following the late Princess Diana 's methods in preparing their children for life in the monarchy, according to OK!'s royal expert.
The couple's "brilliant" and "effective" techniques are about giving Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Prince Louis, who turns five on 23 April a "balance", says royal expert Jennie Bond.
Speaking about how Princess Diana raised her own sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, Jennie explains: "I remember her telling me that she was adamant that she would give them work days and play days. "On work days, William and Harry knew that they had to be like royal princes, and they had to dress like a prince and behave like a prince and be on show like a prince – but on play days, they could put on their jeans and baseball caps and go and eat a burger and drive a go-kart crazily around a track." She believes that Prince George's development into a "pretty confident young man", in particular, comes thanks to the balance adopted by Princess Diana, which will prepare the prince for the "privileged but tough" role ahead of him.
The young prince attended the first Easter service of King Charles' new reign with his family at St George’s Chapel in Windsor over Easter, following the revelation that William and his brother Harry 'have no plans for a reconciliation meeting' at their father's upcoming Coronation.
