It's the beginning of an exciting new era in the lives of the three Cambridge children. Future king Prince George and his siblings Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have moved with their parents Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, from London to nearby Windsor for a chance to enjoy a more "normal" life.
The royal youngsters are now living in Adelaide Cottage, on the estate that surrounds Windsor Castle, which will give them much more freedom than they've previously experienced while living in the "fishbowl" that is Kensington Palace.
While the four-bedroom house is smaller than the 22-room apartment they've been used to, it is set in huge grounds, so there's plenty of space for the children to run around.
Kate and William, both 40, are keen on their kids spending lots of time outside in the fresh air, but that's tricky at Kensington Palace.
"It can be a bit of a fishbowl," says a source.
"They wanted to be able to give George, Charlotte and Louis more freedom than they have living in central London."
The kids are enrolled at Lambrook, a private school just a 15-minute drive away in the town of Ascot. It will be much easier for Kate and William to do school dropoffs and pick-ups themselves, and for the children's friends to come over for playdates.
That's a practice Kate and William initiated for their kids as soon as they started school, says the insider. "There's never a shortage of friends around for tea. Kate and William insist on no special treatment for any of them. George may be a future king but for now, he's just a little boy. They are always at great pains to make sure the three of them have as normal a childhood as possible."
Adelaide Cottage is also ideally placed for George, nine, Charlotte, seven, and Louis, four, to be able to walk to Windsor Castle to visit their greatgrandmother the Queen.
