The Prince and Princess of Wales have strict rules for their three children when it comes to eating during the school holidays and official royal meals. Kate and William are parents to Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and llittle Prince Louis. According to former royal chef Darren McGrady, who worked for Queen Elizabeth II, Princess Diana and Prince Harry, the youngest members of the Royal Family 'aren't allowed to sit with the adults until they have learned the art of polite conversation'.

"The children always ate in the nursery until they were old enough to conduct themselves properly at the dining table," Darren told Harpers Bazaar. Kate and William are known to adhere to strict rules when it comes to ensuring that their three children behave.

It was recently claimed that instead of a 'naughty step', Kate and William, who is now first in line to the British throne, have a 'chat sofa' for their kids if they break a 'no shouting' rule.

A source told The Sun: "Shouting is absolutely 'off limits' for the children and any hint of shouting at each other is dealt with by removal.

"The naughty child is taken away from the scene of the row or disruption and talked to calmly by either Kate or William. Things are explained and consequences outlined and they never shout at them."

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond spoke exclusively to OK!, as she explained why Kate is the perfect person to help her eldest son, Prince George, prepare for the daunting task that lies in his future - becoming King.

Referring to a busy period which involved celebrations for the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee, her sad death, King Charles' accession and the events surrounding his Coronation, Jennie said last year: "I think the events of the past year will have focused young George’s mind very clearly on his future.

"He was likely aware of his destiny and he had quite a close relationship with his great-grandmother. He had watched her on official duties and stood with her on the Palace balcony as the crowds cheered her.

"She [Kate] might gently have told him what lay ahead for him and perhaps explained how, when she was a little girl, she had not expected to become Queen. But George was born in direct succession; his destiny has never been in question.

"Nevertheless, both William and Catherine have been keen from the outset to allow their children to live as normal a childhood as possible. Catherine is in a perfect position to show them what 'normal' life looks like."
