Rumor has it that mornings at the new residence start with a 7:30 AM wake-up call—no lie-ins even for the future king. Kate handles school runs with a reported “cheerful but firm” tone, a phrase every parent should tattoo on a coffee mug. The kids attend Lambrook School, a co-ed prep school just 15 minutes away.
Mealtimes are intentionally informal. The family eats together whenever possible, with classic British fare like fish and chips balanced by seasonal veggies. A fun detail: the kids help set the table, learning responsibility amid the silver. It’s a reminder that even in a castle, chores keep us grounded.
Evening routines involve reading aloud (a nod to Kate’s work on early childhood development) and short walks with the family spaniel, Orla. No phones at dinner—a rule many of us could adopt.
