Has HAMs school choice been announced yet? Moneys not on Lambrook!
Would parents of said school need to be informed? Or because they are no longer working royals would they not need to announce?
Will they go state or private? Can they afford the top private schools now? I gather the state won't pay for their kids education?

I think they own the Montecito mansion but it’s heavily mortgaged

after the sale it’s probably only leaving them with a couple of mill

10 million dollar mortgage, imagine the cost of their interest on that alone!

Cant imagine how they will make money. The brand has so far been about California lifestyle and slagging off Brits

How do people like Charles Spencer make money?

The California thing hasn't worked, its probably cost them more than they have made.
I remember being very cynical about the multi million dollar deals they were meant to have made at the time they left, Spotify, Netflix etc

They thought they could turn the wedding interest into sales and TV audiences.
They missed their are people, mainly women, who would watch anybodys wedding, doesn't mean they'd follow them as a TV presenter

They could easily get 100k for one speaking engagement.

Speaking about what? Do either of them have anything to say?

They only have lies and made up stories to pedal and nobody is paying to hear those anymore.

I just don't think she had a clue what she was getting into, I think she thought it was all glitz and tiaras.
95% of the time is reading up on people and charities, and going along to meet them.

Yep going to to nursing homes, railway stations, schools etc.. & always second fiddle to Kate!
I'd say it irks her that George, Charlotte & Louis are so well loved here too

He is the king’s son. Of course his kids aren’t going to a state school.

Princesa Anne was the queens daughter.
Her children went to a state primary school until age 8

Well apparently they were running out of money in California?

"Running out of money" is a relative term. The ultra wealthy think that they are poor and struggling if they have less than £200,000 per year, and can barely make ends meet, but can still afford school fees. They have no conception of what it's really like for ordinary people. It's perfectly possible to realise that you are too poor to keep up with the billionaire lifestyle in California but still be in the top 1% wealthiest people in the UK

As if they did. They did not. Zara definitely went to Beaudesert. Not sure about Peter. No royal has ever been to stayed school.

She went to that school at age 8...

"state till 8" is a perfectly normal thing for the upper classes to do. A lot of prep schools don't start till age 8 many sons and daughters of lords and dukes have been going to the local village school for Reception to Year 3 ish for many decades.

SomersetBrie · 20/08/2026 10:03

I'm amused that people think they might not be able to afford private school.

I am genuinely surprised though that they are coming back here after all the hoo-ha!

Tom Sykes (The Royalist) is tipping Beaudesert Park in Minchinhampton.

Oh god no!! Please don’t let them move there

The Montechito mansion was bought for $14.6 million in 2020 - it’s now worth $29m - Montechito has boomed in 6 years. So even if they had a 100% mortgage - they’ve made millions. I suspect it will be sold over the coming year.

She did not. Unless a phot with her dropping her there when she was little is lying. She boarded at 8 in Port Regis.

Mike won't be happy. Seems.to absolutely barely tolerate Harry now and his kids are there. Youngest in Lili's year I think (depending on birthdays). But if they are moving to that neck of the woods. Its the most obvious school.

I’ve said this on another thread- can’t keep up 😂. But I think the Tindalls are above all this. They can afford to be friendly with both sides. I think they probably enjoy H’s company when he’s on form, MM too no doubt, but weren’t impressed with the nonsense. I’d expect both of them to be comfortable saying so and MM will have to take it on the chin if she wants to fit in.

ETA Neither H nor MM have the gumption to choose a school based on their own solid research so they will definitely copy what others have done first.

Can they afford private is the question?!

I doubt they will be attending an inner city sink school. Charles will probably cough up for the school fees. I wonder if H&M will become working Royals again?

Which happened to be Beaudesert which is local. An actual picture of her in the uniform there doesnt lie.
