As speculation continues to rage about where Prince George will be educated, news reaches me of another royal parent scouting elite private schools.
Sources tell me Princess Beatrice was seen at Eton College earlier this month, eyeing a potential school for her stepson Wolfie, now ten.
It raises the possibility of him being at the all-boys school at the same time as his second cousin George, who is being tipped to go there in his fatherās footsteps.
That possibility seems closer after rumours an Eton boarding house has been redecorated to accommodate Georgeās security staff spread on parentsā WhatsApp groups.
Eton will be handy for Bea, 37, as it is just over an hour from the Ā£3.5 million Cotswolds mansion she shares with her husband Edo Mapelli Mozzi, who is Wolfieās father, and their daughters Sienna, four, and Athena, one.
Wolfie, who Bea calls her ābonus sonā, is already at school in the UK after his mother, Florida-born architect Dara Huang, feared for his safety in the US amid a spate of school shootings.
Earlier this month, the Prince of Wales was spotted at £60,000-a-year Oundle school, Northamptonshire, prompting rumours George, 12, may be heading there when leaves Lambrook prep school in Berkshire in the summer.
But some now sayĀ the visit was actually about his younger sister, Princess Charlotte, 11, who is also at Lambrook with George and Prince Louis, eight.
Other possibilities for George are his motherās alma mater, Marlborough College, or Londonās Highgate or University College schools.
