THEY’RE the heirs to the throne, so it would be fair to assume Royal siblings Prince George, Princess Charlotte and little Louis would have grand plans for their summer holidays.
However it seems their parents Prince William and Princess of Wales Kate Middleton have other ideas, keen to ensure their children experience a very down-to-earth break.
They’ve just finished their first year at £7k-a-term Lambrook School after relocating from London to Windsor last year, so no doubt after all the upheaval, the family will be relishing the opportunity for a rest.
