Prince Harry and his former wife, Meghan Markle, are reportedly exploring the possibility of enrolling their two children, Archie and Lilibet, in a local private school.
This decision comes after several state schools in the area rejected their application, further indicating their lack of intention to return to the UK.
The news was revealed by Richard Minyards, a former Fleet Street reporter, in the latest edition of the Sussex’s local newspaper, the Montecito Journal.
According to Minyards, the couple was spotted visiting a local institution’s campus last week.
In the area, school fees range from $6,000 to $50,000 for higher grades, with a majority of students from these institutions going on to attend four-year colleges.
While there are excellent state-funded schools available, such as Cold Spring School and Montecito Union School, which boast a significant number of children from affluent families, Archie’s admission has been denied due to peculiarities surrounding his birth certificate.
The Office of Admission explained that the requirements may differ depending on whether it is the child’s first enrollment or a transfer from another school.
However, certain essential documents, such as the child’s birth certificate, proof of residency, immunization records, and other medical documents, are expected from all parents.
Unfortunately, Archie’s birth certificate was not accepted due to suspicions of potential tampering or photoshopping.
Additionally, Meghan failed to provide the required medical record, claiming it was lost but later suggesting that it had been sealed by the palace.
It appears that the local private school they are targeting may also be concerned about these questionable record issues.
If Meghan and Harry continue their pattern of causing controversy and upsetting the school staff, there is a possibility that their children may have to be homeschooled.
Furthermore, if they insist on demanding royal treatment, their children may face teasing and mockery from their peers.
The absence of a crown for a prince or the lack of a princess-like dress, magic wand, and carriage for a princess could lead to uncomfortable situations.
The school years of Archie and Lilibet are expected to be exceptionally challenging for Harry and Meghan.
Unlike in other settings, they will find it difficult to have people sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), and their children’s behavior and their parenting skills, or lack thereof, will be prominently on display.
Interestingly, Prince William and Catherine were recently seen visiting Eton with their son, George, suggesting that he may attend the exclusive school.
Meghan seemingly felt compelled to respond and demonstrate that her own prince would also receive an elite education.
However, it is worth noting that Meghan’s attempts to prove herself superior have not been successful.
In an attempt to divert attention from Prince George’s 10th birthday, Meghan sent her mother, Doria, on a staged paparazzi walk.
This move was seen as an unsuccessful ploy to overshadow the celebrations for Prince George.
In conclusion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are exploring the possibility of enrolling their children, Archie and Lilibet, in a local private school after facing rejections from state schools in the area.
However, their admission process has been complicated by concerns surrounding Archie’s birth certificate and the couple’s failure to provide necessary medical records.
The couple’s behavior and demands for special treatment may also pose challenges for their children in a school environment.
Meanwhile, Meghan’s attempts to compete with other members of the royal family have been met with criticism and skepticism.
