Kensington Palace, the office of the Prince and Princess of Wales, has refused to react to the claims about Kate Middleton and Prince William’s elder son Prince George, a royal expert has claimed.
There are claims at 11 years old, the first child of the Prince and Princess of Wales might be considered ready to partake in quite a gruesome activity that has been performed by royal families and aristocrats for centuries: stag-hunting.
However, royal expert and author of book Prince Harry: The Inside Story, Duncan Larcombe has claimed, “The Palace has refused to comment on claims that Prince George will be initiated into one of the slightly more gruesome royal traditions this summer.”
Earlier, the royal expert told the Daily Express, per Hello magazine: “It was reported that he [George] will join his father on a stag-hunting shoot while they visit the Balmoral estate this month. Traditionally, the blood of a hunter’s first kill is spread on their face, a ritual that goes back centuries.”
The centuries-old custom was also followed by Prince George’s great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II at Balmoral.
Prince William and Kate Middleton along with their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are set to spend time at the Scottish retreat.
