"Their Royal Highnesses love their time in Norfolk and it will continue to be their home," a statement read. "From this autumn, however, the Duke and Duchess will increasingly base their family at Kensington Palace. As they have in recent years, their royal Highnesses are keen to continue to increase their official work on behalf of the Queen and for the charities and causes they support, which will require greater time spent in London."

The statement also revealed that their two children, Prince George, 3, and Princess Charlotte, 1, will be attending school in London.

"Prince George will begin school in London in September, and Princess Charlotte will also go to nursery and eventually school in London as well," the statement read.

Although the royal family appears to be excited for the move, it also means Prince William will end his duties as a pilot with the East Anglian Air Ambulance this summer following his two-year commitment. He and his wife will work on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II to assist with charities.

"It has been a huge privilege to fly with the East Anglian Air Ambulance," he said in the statement. "Following on from my time in the military, I have had experiences in this job I will carry with me for the rest of my life, and that will add a valuable perspective to my royal work for decades to come."

"I would like to thank the people of East Anglian for being so supportive of my role and for letting me get on with the job when they have seen me in the community or at our region's hospitals," he continued. "My admiration for our country’s medical and emergency services community could not be any stronger."
