As the new school year is set to start, members of the public are divided over the expensive tuition fees of the three children of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

They are set to pay more in school fees due to the new VAT rule imposed on private schools by the government. It has been reported that beginning January 1 2025, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis' annual fees at Lambrook School in Berkshire will soar to nearly £80,000.

The significant hike comes as the UK government plans to remove the VAT exemption currently enjoyed by independent schools.

The Wales children are attending Lambrook School since September 2022 when the family moved to the nearby Adelaide Cottage. Lambrook is an independent prep school for boys and girls, aged 3 to 13, located in Ascot, Berkshire.

Here's where Prince William sourced out his income for his family's expenses:

According to the official website of the Royal Family, Prince William's life and work, including his family's expenses, is primarily funded by the Duchy of Cornwall and not by the taxpayers.

He does not receive money from the Sovereign Grant, formerly Civil List, which funded the activities and cost of living of the working royals.

The Duchy of Cornwall is one of the largest and oldest estates in Britain, it is under the management of the Duke of Cornwall.

The Duchy portfolio consists of 52,264 hectares, mostly in the south-west of England, including farmland, residential and commercial properties, and coastline. The income in 2023-2024 is reportedly £23.6 million.

Just like King Charles III in the past, Prince William, the current Duke of Cornwall, also pays voluntary income tax on the Duchy. According to The Telegraph, he pays tax on the full amount, after household costs.

The Duchy is an independent source of income of the Prince of Wales, and is not funded by the U.K. public as per the Sovereign Grant.

Prince William is the 25th Duke of Cornwall. The Duchy was established in 1337 by King Edward III to support his son and heir Prince Edward, known as the Black Prince. Royal charter dictates that each eldest surviving son of a reigning British monarch will inherit the Duchy.

King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden inaugurated the Stenhammar Palace's park, which has a theme of "World music & food".

At the inauguration, His Majesty said: "Today, I want us to see the castle park together as one big living room. A place for entertainment, where we meet, socialize and enjoy good food. Simply where we all feel at home.”

Stenhammar Palace is located outside Flen in Södermanland County, southwest of Stockholm. It is owned by the State and has been leased to King Carl XVI Gustaf since 1966, but is not considered a crown property.

It's a former home of Prince Wilhelm, Duke of Södermanland (younger brother of King Gustaf VI Adolf). Stenhammar was donated to the state by landowner and courtier Robert von Kræmer in 1903, and the will stipulates that it should be leased out to a Swedish prince who is also a Duke of Södermanland, if there is one.

The current Duke of Södermanland is the King's grandson, Prince Alexander, the eldest son of Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia, who was born in April 2016. In the future, he will be most likely granted a lease of this palace if he wishes to live there.
