Kate Middleton at Euro 2020: memorable blazer and despair with George
George, the eldest son of Kate Middleton and William, turns 8 years old next July 22nd. But this time around it is highly likely that the Dukes of Cambridge will not be sharing new photos of their son, as is tradition for senior members of the Royal Family.
According to reports from the Daily Mail, Kate Middleton and William refuse to publish new photos of George after what happened at Wembley stadium during the England-Germany and England-Italy matches, which the Principino witnessed.
On those occasions, George was exposed to fruitless criticism and was targeted on social media to the point of seriously worrying William and Kate, always very careful to show their children in public, just to avoid them being exposed to futile and cruel comments for how he was dressed.
As a result, royal biographer Angela Levin has suggested that Lady Middleton may break tradition this year by avoiding posting new pictures of her firstborn to protect him from media and especially social media attention.
A decision that, if implemented, will cost a lot to the Duchess of Cambridge, a well-known photography enthusiast. So much so that during the first lockdown he launched a photo contest that immortalized the country in such a difficult moment.
Since her children were born, Kate has started the custom of portraying them herself, posting photos on special occasions, such as birthdays or the first day of school. Lady Middleton is also usually the author of family Christmas cards. Probably also on the occasion of George’s 8 years, he will have already made some special images to celebrate the august birthday of the future King of England. But, at present, the Duchess does not necessarily show them in public.
Indeed, according to the expert, William and Kate were unpleasantly surprised by the nastiness with which George was targeted. “There are rumors that we may not see the photograph [del principe George] for his eight years, because they were so upset by the rudeness of people that they made fun of a 7-year-old child ”.
Royal expert Roya Nikkah praised William and Kate’s educational methods and supported their choice to take him to the stadium, dressing him in a suit and tie, according to court protocol: “It is an official duty for Prince George, even if he is 7 years old ”.
