Comparing Cousins
William and Kate’s kids are all older than Harry and Meghan’s kids. Prince George is nine, Princess Charlotte is seven, and the youngest, Prince Louis, is four years old, while Archie is three and Lili is only one year old. Yet, perhaps for understandable reasons, this circle of kids has been compared a lot. Comparing children, in general, is in poor taste, but it makes even less sense if they’re eight years apart!
There are eleven additional grandchildren they could be compared to instead (that are also not preparing for the throne). Some are way closer in age! Still, people like compare the two brothers’ kids. Maybe to satisfy their own inner sibling rivalry craving. One family is preparing future monarchs, another is trying to live their quiet life in America.
