Prince George, who is celebrating his ninth birthday today, is set for a “special upbringing” as a future King, a royal commentator has claimed.
George is the eldest child of Prince William and Kate Middleton and is third in line to the throne.
Even though George could be King one day, William and Kate have “arranged matters” so that he has a “normal childhood as possible”, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams has said.

“He appears periodically, with photographs released on birthdays and anniversaries.
“He has attended events such as Trooping the Colour, the Chelsea Flower Show and Wimbledon as well as accompanying his parents on trips abroad and attending sporting events.”
The expert continued: “As he is the future king his upbringing will certainly be special.
“Gradually this will become evident, at Wimbledon, where he appeared without a sibling, Catherine was quoted as saying it was ‘his treat’.
“However, at such a young age the emphasis will be on as much normality as possible for him and his siblings as, when they do appear, the scrutiny surrounding them is positively seismic.”
Mr Fitzwilliams added that the children will reportedly attend the same school in Windsor once the Cambridges have relocated.
