Prince George and Princess Charlotte’s lives will soon change forever as they are expected to be ‘separated’ due to a long-standing strict royal rule protecting the Crown.
Once Prince George turns 12, the young royal siblings will no longer be able to travel together – and he will also no longer be permitted to share a helicopter or aeroplane journey with his father, Prince William, according to this rule.
