As Halloween draws near, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—children of Prince William and Kate Middleton—are back at school, specifically the Lambrook School, following their half-term break. Their return coincides with the festive holiday, sparking curiosity about how the young royals might embrace Halloween.
While Halloween traditions like trick-or-treating are not as prevalent in the U.K. as they are in the U.S., Princess Kate has been previously spotted leading her children in this classic custom. A heartwarming photo published by Hello! magazine captured the royal mother standing at a neighbor’s gate with Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, participating in the time-honored Halloween tradition.
Though the costumes that the young royals might have chosen remain a delightful mystery, it’s clear that Halloween holds a special place in the Middleton family’s heart. Carole Middleton, Princess Kate’s mother, expressed her fondness for the holiday in a 2022 Instagram post, reminiscing about the fun and frights from her own childhood and sharing her excitement for decorating pumpkins and going trick-or-treating.
While Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are growing up in the royal family, they share the same enthusiasm for Halloween traditions as other children. Princess Kate’s commitment to providing a “normal” childhood for her kids, with a stable and balanced routine, reflects the family’s approach to parenting.
As Halloween approaches, the costumes that the royal siblings might choose are still shrouded in secrecy, but one can’t help but wonder if their favorite activities and interests might serve as inspiration for their outfits. Prince George and Prince Louis have demonstrated their excitement during a surprise visit to the Royal International Air Tattoo, while Princess Charlotte’s love for ballet and tap dancing might offer creative ideas.
In a heartwarming display of down-to-earth family life, Princess Kate has been spotted shopping for Halloween costumes with her elder children, emphasizing that the young royals partake in the same traditions as their peers, celebrating Halloween in much the same way as any other family.
