Prince George has started at Eton College, and the young Royal was joined by his parents, Prince William and Princess Kate, on his first day. However, his father appears to have been pictured in an “unlikely fight”
It’s been a big week for the Royal family, as Prince George recently stepped through the gates of Eton College as a pupil for the very first time. However, though it was a huge day for the young prince, it was his father, Prince William, who appeared to catch people’s attention.
Images have surfaced on X showing Prince George arriving at Eton accompanied by Prince William and Princess Kate, though one particular moment caught observers off guard. Numerous onlookers drew attention to the incident after it was captured on camera, and it certainly proved a distraction for more than a few royal enthusiasts.
It comes after another interesting observation was highlighted recently. It’s claimed both George and William are the spitting image of a family member in a resurfaced photo.
Reacting to Prince William’s incident on the school journey, one social media user commented: “Prince William knows how to put his son at ease. Struggle with your umbrella.”
Another shared photographs alongside the caption: “Prince William got in a fight earlier today (September 8), with an umbrella. Clearly the umbrella won and he said ‘sod it, I’ll get wet’.”
The images sparked considerable amusement, depicting the future King apparently wrestling with an unruly umbrella as photographers snapped away. The brolly turned inside out and William visibly struggled to keep it under control in the rain — a sight that appeared to leave Kate, George and onlookers alike thoroughly entertained.
One user wrote: “He must have so much knowledge about Eton that he’s passing down to George.” Another added: “I have a perfect record of losing every umbrella fight I’ve ever had.”
A third replied: “Some light entertainment for George who was probably a bag of nerves.” Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “I love how the other two are enjoying his tussle!”
A further user shared comparable photographs with the caption: “Another cute photo from Eton yesterday. Prince William dealing with a malfunctioning umbrella right before they walked across the quad for the photo call.”
On Tuesday (September 8), the Prince and Princess of Wales also released photographs of the young Prince on his first day, posted alongside the caption: “George’s first day at Eton.”
The images show George grinning broadly, dressed in pinstripe trousers, a white shirt and a black jacket, beaming as he posed for the cameras.
The photographs have garnered over 900,000 likes since being posted, with numerous comments from followers struck by how tall and smart he appeared.
One wrote: “Aww! Prince George! It feels like you were born five minutes ago. Happy first day at Eton!”
Another commented: “He looks so grown up. And such a lovely mix of both William and Catherine! Wishing Prince George good luck and every success as he studies at Eton.”
A third person added: “These pictures are so beautiful! Prince George isn’t a baby anymore and he is looking more and more like his dad. I wish him all the best at Eton! I’m sure he will have a great time there.”
