Looks like Kate Middleton and Prince William are not exactly seeing eye-to-eye when it comes to their eldest son (and eventual heir to the throne) Prince George's education.

The couple's three children currently attend school at Lambrook, which royal expert Katie Nicholl says Kate has been pretty thrilled with.

"When Kate was in hospital, George was on the football pitch playing with his friends," Nicholl explained. "That sense of normality, of keeping the family going at one of the hardest times they've ever gone through, was important. The school gives them a great infrastructure and a great support network, and allows the children to live a regular childhood — a low-key, happy, albeit privileged childhood."

But Prince George will be aging out of Lambrook in a few years, and apparently William and Kate have different opinions on where to send him. Per The Mirror, Kate wants Prince George to attend a school like her alma mater, Marlborough College and is "heartbroken" at the thought of him attending "stuffy" Eton — where William wants him to go.

"Kate's preference is for George to be at a co-education school, so he can be with his siblings, which is what Kate experienced at Marlborough with her sister, Pippa, and brother, James," Nicholl explained. "It was a very happy school life for her, but William has very fond memories of Eton, which has a long history with aristocrats and members of the royal family."

These two have a couple of years to figure it out, so stay tuned!
