As second in the line of succession, Prince George will one day become King. Revealing one hard task that lies ahead for the almost-ten-year-old, royal expert Dr Tessa Dunlop revealed that it’s one the late Prince Philip never came to terms with. Dr Dunlop described George’s path to the throne as a “learning process” as the young royal will likely become accustomed to royal duties from an early age.

Dr Dunlop exclusively told OK!: “The exposure to the press is one of the hardest things and if you have it earlier I think its easier to handle.
“We know that from Prince Philip – he never got used to it, compared to Elizabeth who was born into it.”
The royal expert went on to speak about the exposure that George and his two younger siblings have and how it is “on their terms”.
She added that the way George, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, are “choreographed is clever”.

She added: “Kate [the Princess of Wales] is not a foul, she knows they’ve got a whole life ahead of them.
“It’s just slowly and incrementally upping exposure but very much on their terms and quite choreographed.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales have largely kept their three children out of the spotlight, only exposing them to various royal events.
The adorable trio have been seen at quite a few events over the past year, slowly preparing them for their lives ahead.

Kate appears to hold one technique that allows her to maintain an “element of control” over her three children’s lives.
Speaking on a previous episode of Royally Us, Kensington Palace’s curator Claudia Acott Williams discussed the “intimate” strategy that the 41-year-old has taken upon herself.
Speaking to host Christina Garibaldi, Ms Williams said: “She’s [Kate] taken a slightly different approach to how she creates, or manages, her children’s public image.
“I think by releasing her own photographs, she’s, kind of, maintaining an element of control and privacy for them.”
Kate created a new approach to photographs of George, Charlotte and Louis by taking the photos herself.
The proud mother-of-three uses her love of photography to capture sweet stills of the children, before using them to release to the public on special occasions, such as the starting of school terms or their birthdays.
The three children are expected to appear at this year’s Trooping the Colour, which will take place today [June 17] in London.
