A thread to discuss the personal relationships between the members of the British Royal Family


Kate Middleton dotes on Prince George and Princess Charlotte during charity polo match


QuoteThe Duchess of Cambridge had a lovely day out with her oldest two children on Sunday when she took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the Maserati Royal Charity Polo Trophy at Beaufort Polo Club in Gloucestershire to support Prince William, who was participating in the game. Photos published on Daily Mail show Kate wrapping her arm around George, who is dressed in a navy polo shirt and a pair of beige shorts. Kate, meanwhile, looks stylish in a light blue summer dress with a flared skirt, from one of her favourite high street shops, Zara. The doting mum was there to keep an eye on her son, as well as his young cousins Savannah and Isla Phillips ? who were also in attendance. In another photo, Kate is seen sitting on the floor with George, Charlotte and Savannah - who has her arm wrapped around the little Princess.

William and Harry typically participate in a series of charity polo matches through the summer to raise money for their charities.

Prince William kicks off series of charity polo matches he will take part in with Prince Harry ? Royal Central

Their once a year polo pictures ;) Kate used to go to every polo match pre royal. 

But as it seems after marriage, the press go bananas...front page news, the pattern has changed to one polo match only. She and children look very nice.

^ The DM KM polo dash...the Harry and William friend, big ears a la Charles et all, but he's good looking. 

I'd jump the mini hill and run for (Kate) and do the hug and 'air' kisses.

That is one vivacious child. She was quite something at the balcony appearance.  :hehe:

Ohhhhhhh  Savanah  , Ohhhhhhh  Don't  you cry for me. I 'll  be  from round  the hill with  a  scar  on my  knee.

To my  fellow Americans here...Oh Susana  song.

SavanahP. BuckBal was funny. kids being kids. Autumn did  discipline her child  here for the push and  I am sure  when  she got home,  no  cookies...no tv...off to bed. I am sure  next time  before an outing,  she will  bribe her  with a  good dessert  if  she stays  away  from  George and  keeps  hands  to herself.
Kids are kids.
BUT when  they  are  a group like this  of QEIIs  greatgrand children and cameras  are recording  every  minute, it  is different.
Bully, no. Overly playful and  not  knowing her strength, yes.  She is  7  and he  is  4.
Also, Charlotte feel back but her mom  was right behind her.  George  got consoled.  Was it because  of  the  hill roll? I  do not know.
Some parents  coddle their kids  for  sneezing. Kate, hmm,  helicopter  parent...No. She  seems to  let them be and get dirty and  fall, tumble   and things  at the  polo  matches.

Ohhhhh Savanah  Ohhhhhhhh   Don't  you  cry  for me. Ill be  comingggg        from the hill with  a         scar  on my  knee.

I don't quite see how bribing a child is good parenting.. even if most parents do it sometimes..

Not sure that bribing Savannah is a good idea. IMO it would be better to explain what the behavior expectations are and what the consequences will be if she doesn't behave in a safe,  responsible and respectable manner with any other child (royal or not) Compliment her if she does follow the directions given to her prior to the outing.

No, I think Savannah needs a bit of firm parenting..

^^^And explaining the expectations and the consequences prior to an outing is part of firm parenting. Of course then you have to follow through on the consequences. :D

Setting aside Savannah's bullish behavior, that kid who kicked the book/paper  afterwards also seemed a bit vicious. Maybe George is a sensitive shy child like his grandfather. If that is the case, he really needs to be supported because one day he will have to be the boss.

Bribe perhaps  was not the best word.  Giving an incentive  to  behave  properly  , I think is a good idea depending on the child and offense.  An incentive  can also  be used  as a   punishment  too.
I did say and imply  in my  post,I  bet Autumn  punished and talked  to and will talk to  her daughter before the next outing.

Yes we did see that Autumn immediately turned to her daughter to admonish her in the video. It's all part of a long learning process that has to be repeated now and then.

Charles is decisively not "sensitive." I hope George takes after his maternal grandfather.

But you said that Charles was a loving father.  would that not mean that he is sensitive to the needs of his children

He he. You can't change genes. You will just have to continue "hoping". Some people :wacko:

I believe George gets his shyness from George VI and Queen Mary. While Charles is not a shy man he is sensitive and it seems George has inherited that from him. Savannah seems to have inherited her personality from her grandmother Princess Anne and great-grandfather the DOE while her antics on the balcony were tame her behavior pushing George was not and her mother and father really need to take a firmer hand with her that such behavior will not be tolerated.
