William and Kate Pause Royal Duties for School Holiday With Their Children

The family-first break reflects their long-standing practice of building schedules around Lambrook’s term dates.

Overview

  • The Prince and Princess of Wales, whose school-timed break was reported Tuesday, are stepping back from public engagements to spend the Easter half-term with Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
  • The step-back follows their family appearance at the Easter Matins service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor.
  • The pause lines up with a three-week holiday at Lambrook School, where their children are enrolled.
  • The family often spends school breaks at Anmer Hall on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, though plans for this holiday remain private.
  • Royal commentators say the pause is routine and well earned after recent duties supporting the monarch, even as some outlets revisit past criticism of William’s workload.
