At the gathering in Portsmouth on Wednesday, Prince William interacted with a young fan, the great-granddaughter of Captain Alastair Bannerman, a D-Day soldier. After reading an excerpt from Captain Bannerman's diary, William engaged with the little girl, asking her about her interest in the Red Arrows aerial display.
As the girl's companion mentioned Charlotte's absence, William promptly explained, "Charlotte's at school!" He further elaborated, sharing that Charlotte had exams, indicating her dedication to her studies. Expressing his daughter's apprehension about the school day, William crossed his fingers in hopes of her success, saying, "Hopefully it's all gone well."
Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle faced criticism for their reported consideration of prestigious and expensive schools, including one with annual fees of up to £40,000. Royal commentator Lee Cohen denounced the couple, questioning their commitment to progressive causes while considering such expensive institutions, labeling their actions as hypocritical and elitist.
