Royal fans say Prince William and George 'won't do one thing together' after July Royal fans are just discovering a heart-wrenching tradition that will come into play later this year when Prince George turns 12.
According to Royal protocol, from the age of 12, the second heir to the throne (George) must travel by plane separately from the first in line (William) to safeguard the Royal lineage, meaning the father and son may never fly together again.
He recounted: "Interestingly, we flew all four: the Prince, the Princess, Prince William and Prince Harry, up until Prince William was 12 years old.".
The late Prince Philip's sister, Princess Cecile, perished in a crash in 1937, while the late Queen Elizabeth II's uncle, Prince George, died in an air accident in 1942.
The son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, who is second in line to the throne, will reach this significant age on July 22, when a major change is expected to occur.
