However, the 13-year-old was dropped by his parents at the prestigious all-boys boarding school, Prince George arrived in “home clothes” wore a dark blazer suit with tie while Prince William wore a nearly identical and Princess Kate, a deep green long-sleeved dress.

Notably, they were welcomed by the headmaster, Simon Henderson, who said, “Welcome.”

He added, “Good luck. Enjoy it.”

The young prince will be assisted by his parents to get comfortable in his new room at the boarding school.

Moreover, it is said that the next in line to the throne, Prince William, also went to the same college where George has now begun his studies.

It is worth noting here that it was disclosed by the palace in June that Prince George will attend Eton College.

At that time, an American journalist and author, Sally Bedell Smith, revealed to People Magazine that “Eton was a much-needed haven for William.”

“It will give George a rigorous education that he will need for his role,” she added.

While an insider added, “George has always wanted to follow in his dad’s footsteps.”
