William and Kate still maintain their Anmer Hall residence, having lived there for much of the COVID-19 lockdowns, as well as enjoying time there when the children are on school holidays.

Prince Louis' start to his education was delayed by lockdown and instead of starting in January at the age of two-and-a-half like his older siblings, he began nursery at the start of Willcocks' summer term.
