Sussexes Deny Reports That Prince Archie Is Registered at Eton

The statement counters weekend claims of an Eton enrollment, offering a rare on-the-record clarification about the six-year-old’s schooling plans.

Overview

  • A spokesperson for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry told People that the Duke has not put Archie's name down for Eton and has no plans to send him there.
  • The clarification follows reports in outlets including the Daily Beast and the Daily Mail that claimed Archie had been registered at the Windsor boarding school.
  • Archie is six years old, and Eton admits boys from ages 13 to 18, placing any potential decision years away.
  • Prince Harry has recently spoken about wanting to bring Archie and Lilibet to the U.K., and he praised British schools and community in conversations recounted by Joss Stone.
  • Both Harry and Prince William attended Eton, though Harry has previously described aspects of his time there as difficult.
