Prince George and Princess Charlotte boast this impressive skill, according to Prince William
Prince George and Princess Charlotte apparently boast an impressive skill that their dad Prince William has revealed.
- Prince George and Princess Charlotte are very active when it comes to hobbies and interests.
- And now Prince William has revealed a new skill that they are both apparently pretty adept at.
- In other royal news, Kensington Palace responded after singer Camila Cabello admitted she stole something from Prince William and Kate Middleton’s home.
Prince George and his younger sister Princess Charlotte have a pretty full timetable when it comes to extra-curricular activities.
The young royals’ parents, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, have always been quite candid about what the youngsters get up to in their spare time.
Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton have previously revealed that their two older children are quite sporty, taking up football, ballet, horse-riding, skiing, and Prince George even hit the tennis courts earlier this year with sporting legend Roger Federer.
And now the Duke of Cambridge has revealed another activity the his little ones like to get up to – swimming.
Apparently Prince George, six, and Princess Charlotte four, enjoying hitting the swimming pool to get a lap or two in – well maybe not full laps, but still.
Dad-of-three Prince William, who also shares one-year-old Prince Louis with wife Duchess Kate, reportedly spoke to Eileen Fenton, who was receiving an MBE for voluntary services to swimming, as he conducted an investiture ceremony at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday.
