THE Duke and Duchess of Cambridge WILL retain the services of a nanny when they move to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, according to royal commentator Jennie Bond.
Responding to reports they will not have a nanny looking after their children after moving to their new home, Ms Bond said she understood them to be incorrect.
Speaking to GB News, Ms Bond said: “I’m not so sure that’s true. No. Their nanny has been with them since William was very, very young, and they’re very attached to her.
“So I’m not sure that’s true. I don’t think we can believe everything we hear.”
Ms Bond also said that Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir was likely to leave senior Royals fearful and that it was sad to see William and his brother remaning at loggerheads on the 25th anniversary of their ate mother’s death
“I think the problem with Harry writing his account of his life is that it has eroded trust, really.
“There is very little trust after the Oprah interview particularly between William and Harry and other members of the royal family.
“They don’t know what bombshell is going to come next.
“Trust is something that’s very important in royal circles. There aren’t very many people they can trust. Discretion is everything.
“Both Megan and Harry have demonstrated they’re no longer willing to be traditionally discreet about what goes on behind palace walls.
“They are fearful of what is going to come out and yes, it is still I think poisoning the relationship between the two brothers who were so close.
“It’s so sad that with the 25th anniversary of Diana’s death coming up to see her boys still loggerheads with one another.”
Asked if William and Kate were less elitist than other royals, she told GB News: “They’re much more relatable, aren’t they? Which is the way that William has been brought up and I think Catherine has made that clear as well.
“They are quite popular with young people.”
Commenting on their decision to send Prince George and Princess Charlotte to Lambrook. she added: “Yes, it’s an expensive school, Lambrook. We wouldn’t really expect them to go to the local secondary school.
“It is a private school but it’s one that has the ethos that they very much like. It’s very sporting, it’s very outdoorsy, it has a croquet lawn, it has a cricket pitch, obviously, but it also has an ethos which states that with great privilege comes great responsibility.
“The are encouraged to give back to people who are not so privileged. For example, on their annual trip, which recently has been to Sweden they had to raise £500 per pupil if they were going to go on the trip to give to someone who was less privileged and who could have the same holiday.
“It is an ethos that chimes very much with William and Catherine’s idea of how they want to bring up the children.”
