The boy who will be king | Inside the royal family and the life of Prince George

The prince has already had to grow up fast among much controversy in the Royal Family, mourning the loss of his great grandmother Queen Elizabeth, and his mother, Prince Kate, recovering from cancer.

Who is the boy who will be King one very distant day from now? And how does one learn to take on the most exclusive job in the world?

In this special documentary 7NEWS Spotlight uncovers the secrets of Prince George’s royal upbringing, including his education, the Royal rituals he must learn and how his modern upbringing is steering the Royal Family into a new era.

With exclusive access to those close to him, 7NEWS Spotlight’s Sarah Greenhalgh is in London to chart Prince George’s journey to the throne – from meeting Barack Obama in his dressing gown to becoming the youngest future King to have an official role in a coronation.

While Prince George’s reign may still be decades away, it is evident that the monarchy he will inherit is evolving.

Being an Irish Catholic Patriot and living in the U.K. 23 years myself, at age 53, I sincerely hope and pray that Prince George will make a good king for the British People and for those of the Commonwealth, but I do very much fear that very tough times lie ahead for all of the current Royal Children in the internet age, who have been forced to grow up very quickly in so many ways

People need to keep in mind even tho she has finished treatment but it will be at least 3 months before they can do a PET scan to see if it was a complete successful healing then she will need frequent follow ups to keep her cancer free . So plz for God's sake give her space and privacy as she needs it.

He seems like an amazing little guy! I love the pictures of George and William at football games. Such undiluted joy, it is wonderful to see.

God Bless The British Royal Family. ♥️

Very well chosen PC, who comes from a loving home and family who stood by William when he was suffering the loss of his mother and must have been so afraid of the life to come for him.
At least PW listens to whoever is training him. As George is doing, that's why George is doing well. Long may he continue to do so.
The main thing is a family environment, that is the bed rock of anyone's personality.

Prince George is a lovely boy. He and his siblings have enjoyed having Catherine's parents as loving grandparents. They all love spending time together. Thankfully, Harry and his awful wife are well clear of the scene.

My partner passed away at 43 from cancer. I wish Catherine all the very best in her recovery. William & Catherine have raised 3 very beautiful children. They are destined for great things, but PLEASE let them be kids for as long as is possible

Prince Louis is so precocious and funny. I'm enjoying watching him grow up. I miss QE2.
