James Middleton reflects on Marlborough as Prince George considers schools

James Middleton is reflecting on his own experiences at Marlborough School

James Middleton has voiced criticism of Marlborough College, the boarding school he and his sister, the Princess of Wales, both attended. 

The prestigious institution is reportedly being considered by Kate and William as a potential school for Prince George, alongside Eton, where the Prince of Wales studied, reported GB News.

James said regarding Marlborough: “Perhaps my criticism was that it was too focused on what one would call success, or being the best, or the top.

“So it’s all about the best grades, the top of the class, the top teams.”

However, James also said that Marlborough was a “fantastic” school and he was lucky to have gone there.

James said there were eight different teams in all of the sports played at Marlborough but that it was “only really the first teams that ever got spoken about.”

“I was never in the first teams. My sisters were, and they did very well and it worked fantastically for them in how they operated.

“But for me, it wasn’t like that. I was dragging at the bottom.

“It was a shame, in a way, that some of the things that I found challenging in my life were not picked up then.

“Because I think that could have gone on to help me manage myself, my own expectations, a bit further down the line, so perhaps not allow me to go where I went to because I would have felt more accepted, not felt like perhaps a failure.”

In 2023, Prince George and his parents visited Marlborough College, where he could potentially cross paths with one of his mother’s former teachers.

Louise Moelwyn-Hughes, 53, who taught Kate Middleton Latin and classics during her GCSEs, is now the head of the school. 

Choosing Marlborough, a co-educational institution, for George would also pave the way for his siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, to attend alongside him. 

Currently, all three young royals are enrolled at Lambrook, a co-educational day prep school.

Buckingham Palace releases King Charles important video message

King Charles III has spoken about his and the royal family’s deep affection for Scotland and the enduring relationship with its people.

The 75-year-old monarch got emotional while revealing the Buckingham Palace’s strong bond with the Scottish Parliament in his latest speech.

The King’s speech video, shared by the royal family’s social media accounts, attracted massive praise from the royal fans as the King said: “We are all, at the end of each day, united by our love of Scotland.”

The video was captioned: “Today, The King spoke of his family’s deep affection for Scotland and the enduring relationship between the Parliament, the Crown and the people of Scotland during his address to the Scottish Parliament to mark its 25th anniversary.”

The British monarch went on showering praise on the people of Scotland in his statement, saying: “Because of its natural beauty, of course, but also because of its strength of character, based as it is on the extraordinary diversity of its peoples, whose range of ideas, skills, energy, passions, and frequently deeply-held beliefs, never cease to inspire me.”

The King added: “From the central belt, to the North Highlands, across the islands, in Ayrshire, in the Borders, the cities, towns, and villages, or the coastal communities, who, I wonder, could not fail to be moved by this complex Caledonian Kaleidoscope?”

King Charles’ meaningful words about unity and family affection come amid Prince Harry’s visit to the UK on Monday (September 30), giving hope of reconciliation with the Duke of Sussex.

The meeting occurred at Wembley Stadium in June

Travis Kelce’s mother recently discussed his reaction to meeting Prince William and his children at a Taylor Swift concert in London. 

In an interview published on September 26, Donna Kelce shared her son’s modest viewpoint on the experience, reported GB News.

Donna revealed: “He said that ‘When you meet people like that, you know when the royals come in or Paul McCartney or Hugh Grant… you’re just like, who in this picture doesn’t fit? Why am I here and why am I even allowed to talk to these individuals? It just doesn’t seem right.'”

The meeting occurred at Wembley Stadium in June, where Prince William, 42, and his two children, Princess Charlotte and Prince George, were in attendance for Taylor Swift’s first Eras concert in London. 

Travis Kelce, 34, was there to support his girlfriend, the pop superstar Taylor Swift. The day after the concert, Swift posted a backstage selfie on Instagram that included herself, Kelce, and the royal family.

She captioned the photo: “Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start”, tagging the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Prince William also shared a version of the photo on his official Instagram account. Later, Kelce expressed his thoughts on the royal meeting during an episode of his podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce.

He expressed uncertainty about the proper protocol, saying: “[I] wasn’t sure if I was supposed to, like, bow to them, curtsy, just be an American idiot and shake their hand”.

Despite his initial hesitation, Kelce had a positive impression of the royals, particularly Prince William.

Kelce said regarding the heir to the throne: “Dude, he was the coolest.

“He was awesome. They were an absolute delight to meet”.

Donna Kelce noted that her son is handling such high-profile encounters well, adding: “He’s a pretty friendly guy”.

Prince Harry takes smart step ahead of UK trip

Prince Harry – who’s set to visit to the UK on Monday – has made a unique request about his much hyped-trip to his homeland, where he may meet his royal relatives to begin a new journey.

The Duke of Sussex, who has been open about his security fears in Britain, will attend the WellChild Awards in London on September 30.

The King Charles younger son Harry has requested that the location of the event is not made public until he lands in the country, an insider has claimed.

“Harry is still very concerned about his security in the UK and his team have asked that the location not be shared with anyone until the day of the event, the source told the Express.

They continued: “It’s one thing for Harry to come over last minute for a funeral or to see family, but completely different when the event is publicised and in the public domain.

“He [Harry] could become a target so the team have ensured that the location only be known on a need to know basis.”

It comes amid reports that Queen Camilla allegedly does not want the monarch to hold a meeting with his son.

In February, the father and son held more than 30 minutes meeting at Clarence House after Harry rushed back to the country of his birth following the news the monarch had been diagnosed with cancer. Harry has made two trips to the UK since then, including in August for his uncle’s funeral, but has not seen King Charles during either of them.
