Taimur Will Follow Family Tradition, Go To Boarding School

Taimur Ali Khan will  follow the  family tradition  of  all   children  from the Pataudi clan  attending boarding  school  in England.

But not any time  soon.

A source  close  to  the family reveals, “It’s always been like that in the Pataudi family. Saif’s father Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi studied in  England, then his  son Saif and daughters Sabaa and Soha. Saif’s children  Sara and  Ebrahim from his first marriage(with Amrita Singh) also went to boarding school.And  eventually it will be Taimur’s turn.”

There were  media reports  that  Taimur would “soon”  be sent to  boarding school. This is untrue. Taimur won’t be sent away until he is  12 or 13 years old.

However, and here is the catch, Taimur’s doting father is  not too keen  to send away his son.

Says a  source  close to the family, “Not Saif, but it is Kareena who is adamant that Taimur be sent  off  after a  certain age  .She feels  the  constant media attention  is  not right for Taimur.And she  is right.  Saif  isn’t so sure  he wants his youngest born to spend his growing years away from his family. Saif hardly  got  time to spend with his first two children Sara and  Ebrahim. He  doesn’t want to miss out on  Taimur’s growing up years either.”
