It seems like Prince George was born yesterday...time has flown and he is almost a teenager!

What! I thought he was about nine. 🤯

I was reading that now George is 12 , he will no longer travel with his father .
Apparently the late Queen had expressed concerns about the Cambridge/ Wales family travelling together .
When you consider what would happen should the unthinkable occur, it will be a wise move .

It’s been royal protocol for many years. Nothing to do with the queen worrying about William and his family!

I love the behind the scenes video of him with his siblings

Indeed but William has always wanted his family to travel together and the Queen wasn’t happy .
I am old enough to remember when Charles and Diana undertook their Australian tour in the early 80s and took William with them as Diana refused to leave him for 6 weeks . There were lots of discussions about Charles and William travelling together.

I can’t get over how much Prince George is showing his Spencer genes — he really looks like John Spencer and Diana.

Prince George turns 12

All 3 kids are tall. I can't believe George's height!

I agree with the posters who think he will be taller than his father.

He does, but I’ve also always been reminded of Edward VIII as a child and PoW. OK, I know that’s not the most fortunate of connections but Edward was undoubtedly a very handsome man.

And I think Catherine’s side are in their too!

CalicoPusscat · 22/07/2025 20:55

12 already?? Time flies, doesn't it!

So sad if it’s true he can’t fly with his family any more. I hope he flies with his mother and siblings and his father goes separately….

If we're talking worst case contingencies, Louis should fly with William, to spread the risk.

somewhereintheworld · 22/07/2025 21:31

He looks like Kate's dad.

Isn’t Charlotte after George?

Yes, but I was thinking best for Charlotte to be with Catherine.

bluegreygreen · 22/07/2025 21:40

Horrible for all of them to have to think like that - another way it's not an easy life.

KnickerlessParsons · 23/07/2025 23:15

I think he looks like Edward VIII too.

I agree there, he certainly resembles the Spencer family, but has his father's teeth.

Why?

HonoriaBulstrode · 24/07/2025 00:06

Because she's a ten year old girl.

crumblingschools · 24/07/2025 00:11

My parents had friends who used to travel separately in cars if all going to the same place, dad with one child in his car, mum had the other child with her in her car. They weren’t royalty

That’s so weird

BurntBroccoli · 24/07/2025 00:16

I thought he must be at least 15!

He has the late Queen’s teeth. She had those little pointy canines (I think) too.

I think they'll make sure George only travels with one sibling. Again if the worst happened and William was the only survivor wed be back to having a Sussex as heir. God help us.

I think they'll travel so William has at least one child with him
