In 2025, Prince George showed a great deal of confidence by attending several important events without his siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. As the future King, 12-year-old George has a huge future ahead of him, which Princess Kate and Prince William have reportedly been preparing him for. And according to one royal expert, the Prince and Princess of Wales are playing the "slow game" when it comes to their eldest son.
Writing for People, royal expert Simon Perry shared, "Prince William and Kate Middleton have very gradually immersed him further in the duties that will inevitably come his way in the decades to come." Perry pointed to the Buckingham Palace tea party George attended with his parents in honor of the 80th anniversary of VE Day, where he met World War II veterans in a "landmark" move for the young prince. Per the expert, the occasion "presented a perfect opportunity for George to experience some of that legacy firsthand."
