William’s conversation with Mohammed also echoed a relatable moment he shared about his own kids. According to Hello!, students from Princes Primary School and English Martyrs Catholic Primary School admitted they couldn’t remember what they had learned in class. Laughing, William confessed, “I ask my children this every day, and they always say absolutely nothing at all.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales’ three children attend Lambrook School near their Windsor home. Recently, the family took a break from their routine to enjoy their half-term holiday on the private Caribbean island of Mustique, a long-time favorite getaway destination for them.
