George in particular appears to have gotten quite tall ahead of his 10th birthday on July 22. According to People, a close family source told the outlet that George is “a cracking lad.”

A palace insider also discussed how Kate and William are handling raising their oldest son, who is now second in line to the throne after his father. “It’s a massive balancing act,” the source said. “William and Kate are doing the right thing, protecting him so he can have as normal a childhood as possible, but he’s also dipping into duties as a future monarch. He’s getting firsthand experience of what it’s like to be a royal and a monarch and firsthand experience of being a normal boy.”
