Prince William at Kate Middleton would be elated as Prince George is not allowed a specific luxury at his new boarding school.

The young Wales, who has turned 13 today, is not allowed to keep a smart phone when he’s away from home – a rule that would highly be appreciated by both William and Kate who who have a no phone policy at home.

Speaking to Eugene Levy’s series The Reluctant Traveler last year, William revealed: “None of our children have any phones, which we’re very strict about.”

“William’s experience of Eton was a happy one, but both he and Catherine realize their children’s school lives may be considerably different in today’s world,” Myers shared.

“It is really hard. Our children don't have phones,” he earlier told Brazilian TV host Luciano Huck, adding, “When George moves onto secondary school, maybe he'll have one with limited access,” he noted.
