The newspaper said van Straubenzee, who is also Princess Charlotte's godfather, proposed last week to Lanigan-O'Keeffe, who teaches outdoor learning and mindfulness at the school.

The last time George and Charlotte were seen together was at the beginning of June at Trooping the Colour, along with younger sibling Prince Louis and the rest royal family, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
