The Strict Parenting Rules Of Kate Middleton And Prince William

It’s no secret that the members of the British royal family must follow some seriously strict rules that go beyond proper manners. Those rules are even more rigid for royal children, including Princess Charlotte of Wales, Prince George of Wales, and Prince Louis of Wales.

The three children aren’t just subject to strict rules because of the etiquette they must learn as royals; some of them are directly related to Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis and the resulting chemotherapy treatment she’s undergoing as a preventative measure.

According to one source who spoke to OK! Magazine in April 2024, some of the new rules include cleaning up after themselves and preparing snacks for themselves. Besides this increased responsibility, they were also told to wash their hands more frequently, as Kate is very susceptible to germs while undergoing chemotherapy. Based on what the same source reported, Kate and William’s firstborn, George, is doing a superb job helping out his siblings with these tasks, and Charlotte “loves keeping Louis in line.” Teamwork makes the dream work!

The kids even started stepping up for their mother before the world heard about Kate’s cancer treatment. A family friend who spoke to Us Weekly in January 2024 said that the kids made heartwarming ‘get well soon’ cards for Kate and even made some of her “favorite snacks.”
