Prince George joins Prince William to watch England take on Australia in the Ashes at Lord’s

Prince George has joined his father Prince William on day four of the second Ashes Test at Lord’s, London.

The young royal, nine, dressed in a smart blazer and checked shirt, sat next to the Prince of Wales, 41, in the stands as he took on England against Australia in the cricket series.

The equally smart father of three, William, donned a pale blue jacket and stylish sunglasses as he enjoyed a day out with his eldest son.

The sporting duo seemed deeply focused on the action, with British heir to the throne pointing out certain elements, who often seemed to pull the same facial expressions as his father.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak joined the royals at Lord’s. At one point, the beaming politician appeared to be talking to William and George, after the latter was presented with a replica of the Ashes Urn by Richard Thompson, Chairman of the ECB (England and Wales Cricket Board).

During a break from the action, the young royal family enjoyed a slice of pizza while William chatted with other guests in the box, including actor and comedian Stephen Fry, who shook hands with George.

The father-and-son duo looked strikingly alike — and even sipped similar drinks at one point.

Social media commentators also noted how the father and son looked alike as they both wore blue blazers and light colored shirts as they watched England take on Australia.

Both opted for a relaxed style, with the top buttons undone. They enjoyed the game together and discussed the game, with William pointing out some plays to his eldest son.

William has previously attended football matches with his eldest, including watching their beloved Aston Villa play, as well as the Euro 2020 final at Wembley.

The couple were not joined by the Princess of Wales, 41, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five.

Their appearance comes after Prince George was reportedly spotted last week checking out the boarding school where he could soon become a student.

His parents Prince William and Princess Kate, both 41, were seen on the campus of Eton College, Hello! magazine reported.

In a photo of the encounter shared on social media by royal fans, little George, who turns ten this month, wore navy blue shorts, a short-sleeved shirt and black shoes as he stood next to his father. He was also educated at the prestigious boarding school in Berkshire.

Meanwhile, Kate appeared to be repeating her £490 white and emerald Cefinn shirt dress, which she debuted the week before on a trip to Nuneaton, to visit the school.

The trio stood with a man and a woman, who appeared to be Eton College staff members, and chatted outside, standing next to a sign that read: ‘The Porter’s Lodge’ – and another ‘no entry’ sign.

Prince William and his younger brother, Prince Harry, 38, were both high school students at Eton College, where William enrolled in 1995.

Currently, Eton College lists tuition fees as £15,432 per half – where ‘half’ means ‘term’ and three terms in the school year.

This works out to £46,296 a year for tuition fees at the prestigious school, whose alumni include David Cameron, Boris Johnson and George Osborne.

After moving to Windsor last year, the Welsh children all attend Lambrook Primary School in Berkshire, just ten minutes’ drive from their new home, Adelaide Cottage.

Lambrook boasts ‘first-class teaching and excellent facilities’, including a 25-metre swimming pool, nine-hole golf course, artificial turf, clay courts, squash court, cricket and other sports fields.

The fees cost £4,389 per semester for Year 2 pupils such as Louis, £6,448 per semester for Years 3-4 such as Charlotte, and £6,999 per semester for George through Years 5-8, with an additional £ 1,481 per semester for boarding for Y3-8.

Famous alumni include the actor Alex Pettyfer, the sons of wartime Prime Minister Herbert Asquith, and entrepreneur Giles Clarke, who founded Majestic Wine.

Prior to the move, Prince George and his little sister, Princess Charlotte, eight, attended Thomas’s preparatory school on Battersea High Street.
