The one royal who ‘rules the roost’ among Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Louis
The Cambridge kids share an adorable bond, but a parenting expert reveals who's really in charge in the trio.
Prince George might be the eldest of the Wales children and a king-in-waiting, but he's certainly not top dog among his siblings. It's actually Princess Charlotte who reportedly “rules the roost” at home.
Speaking to Hello, world-renowned parenting expert Jo Frost revealed her belief that Princess Charlotte is running the show.
Frost, known best for her ‘Supernanny’ TV appearances, said: “Charlotte knows the rules. She's the one in the middle.
"She knows how to keep everyone in good stead. There are moments when I've watched George and he's looked over at his sister, and he's probably annoyed with her one minute and then grateful that she's there being able to remind him of things, when he's taking it all in as well."
Immediately, royal-watchers will be reminded of the young Princess correcting her older brother Prince George’s posture during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022.

Offering her thoughts on the Walses’s parenting style, Frost speculated that Prince William and Princess Kate were raising their children to know royal protocol like the back of their hand.
On this, she said: "I think really what we're seeing is awareness.
"Prince George and Princess Charlotte are being informed, certainly George, our future King. He's no doubt started learning little bits here and there. He has the wonderful example of looking up to his grandfather and his father from a young age.
"They're raised with an understanding of royal procedures and protocols. And they're raised to understand, there's a time and a place."

According to Frost, the Cambridge’s family dynamic was “relatable”, and very well-executed.
She elaborated: “It's relatable to any family. For example, there's a wedding or a christening coming up and we know that it would be good manners and etiquette to be quiet while the choir is singing and the service is happening. That, to me, is just responsible parenting, and we see that.
"They have a lovely balance of that and behind closed doors, no doubt they're playing games and winding each other up as siblings do, teasing each other, having fun and baking cookies and being out in nature."
Frost also praised Prince William and Princess Kate for raising their children on equal grounds.
According to her, there would “never be the ‘heir and spare’ mindset in the Cambridge family.
She went on: “I think William and Catherine understand the importance of nurturing the sibling relationships between the three of them.
"The understanding that it really takes a team, with the important roles in upholding the crown and the monarchy. And so, we're seeing these very early seeds now, with respect to what it means to support each other and to nurture together."
