Prince George knows he’s ‘very different’ from his siblings because he’s often ‘singled out’ to spend time with his great-grandmother the Queen and his grandfather Prince Charles, a royal expert has claimed.
The seven-year-old future king ‘gets taken away’ from his sister Princess Charlotte, five, and brother Prince Louis, two, for photoshoots with his father Prince William, 38, Her Majesty, 94, and the Prince of Wales, 71.
Royal commentator Katie Nicholl claims this exclusion from his siblings means George ‘understands that he’s different from them’ – despite the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s efforts to treat their children as equals.
Speaking to OK! she added that the idea of him being king is ‘being introduced to him gradually’.

She added: ‘The true enormity of what his life will one day be isn’t something he’s fully aware of yet.’
Katie went on: ‘I think George understands, like William did from a very early age, that he’s different from his younger brother and sister and that he’ll have a different future.
‘After all, he gets taken away to do photoshoots with Her Majesty the Queen, so he must notice he’s been singled out.’
In 2019, for the Queen’s Christmas Day message, footage was filmed of George learning how to make Christmas puddings alongside his father, grandfather Charles and the monarch.

His siblings didn’t feature in the clip, while the youngster was also photographed in a portrait with the monarch and her son and grandson, which was released in January 2020.
Katie said that William and Kate, 38, who have been staying at their Norfolk residence Anmer Hall throughout lockdown with their children, aim to ensure all the youngsters feel equal.
Despite George being third-in-line to the throne, they aren’t raising him to be spoilt or get special treatment, Katie said.

This is a far cry from the different treatment William and his younger brother Prince Harry received, according to the royal author.
She told the publication that when the brothers were taken for tea with the Queen Mother, William would apparently be allowed first choice of the selection on offer.
The future king is also said to have struggled with the realisation that he had ‘no choice about which path his life would take’ and doesn’t want the same troublesome thoughts affecting George’s childhood.
