royal expert Ingrid Seward has previously explained, via Express.co.uk. &#8220;She\u2019s seen it; she\u2019s been around long enough\u2026but they\u2019re not normal children, and I think it\u2019s extremely hard to keep their little feet on the ground.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They can&#8217;t change their destiny,&#8221; royal expert Jennie Bond has previously explained about the Wales children&#8217;s upbringing to OK! magazine. &#8220;But they don&#8217;t have to confront it just yet except on special occasions. So I think William and Catherine have got the balance just right. The children obviously know they were born royal, but they don&#8217;t have to be in the public eye very often &#8211; there will be time enough for that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Celebrity news, beauty, fashion advice, and fascinating features, delivered straight to your inbox!<\/p>\n<p>Well, that\u2019s that.<\/p>\n<p>We will continue to update this story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince William and Princess Kate have been front and centre this summer.
