Prince William wants to send his son to the school where he and his brother Prince Harry went which was Eton College. However, Princess of Wales is adamant that George should not attend an all-boys school.

In the report, a source mentioned that Kate was against it because she was “horribly bullied at her first boarding school” and she "can't bear the thought of George suffering that."

As per the report, Kate earlier attended a girl's boarding school in Berkshire called Downe House, however, she left it mid-term due to bullying. From there, she later enrolled in Marlborough College which was a co-educational boarding school.

Meanwhile, Kate Middleton, 42, received an outpouring of global sympathy after her video message on Friday revealed she was undergoing "preventative chemotherapy".
