The Wales children are always the center of attention at royal public events as they're otherwise kept away from the spotlight. Such events, with Trooping the Color being the latest one, are rare occasions when public gets to catch a glimpse of the young royals. While Prince Louis was his cheeky self on the big day, and Princess Charlotte looked graceful twinning with mom Kate Middleton, it was Prince George who stirred discussions with his calm demeanor. Analyzing footage from the day, a personality expert has cited George's many characteristics that suggest he would make a good monarch.



 

According to Hello! magazine, body language expert Arthur Cassidy lauded the Prince’s posture during the prestigious event. The expert noted how the 11-year-old held his head high and chest wide, reflecting on the importance of the development of a future monarch during his teen years. He said, “Prince George reveals the positive impact of good posture – his head is held high with an open chest, while his personality type serves to positively reinforce just how vital his childhood and teenage development will be for his future role as monarch.” Cassidy added that the young Prince was also aware of his ‘gestures and expressions’ as he watched the ceremonial parade and flypast. He said, “George has his hands in the clenched overlap position just below his belt, demonstrating a relaxed mode and positive self-confidence.”



 

Experts have often noted how Middleton and Prince William are doing a good job with imparting important values to their kids from an early age. George’s gestures during the event were evident that he is a responsible brother, as he was seen keeping enthusiastic Louis in check as he waved continuously at the crowd from the Buckingham Palace balcony. While Charles, William, and Middleton were unbothered by his actions, George gently nudged his brother to make him stop.

As George’s future is somewhat mapped out before him, being second in line to the throne, the Prince and Princess of Wales are determined to give him as normal a childhood as possible before while they still can. Author Robert Hardman, in his book King Charles III: The Inside Story, has written how George may not take up royal duties until he reaches a certain age. Comparing the situation to that of the monarch and William, the author penned, “Whereas Charles III had his future mapped out without consultation, Prince William had a significant degree of autonomy in his choice of university education, his engagement with the armed forces, and his introduction to regular royal duties.” He added, "He [William] is determined that Prince George should have a similar, if not greater, involvement in the way he develops his own royal role.” Middleton and William may also break royal tradition and not send their eldest to Eton College given the former’s recent health struggles. According to The Mirror, experts have revealed how the Wales’ are researching good schools for George, and they may try to keep him closer to home with his siblings.
