How 'sporty' William and Kate have inspired George, Charlotte and Louis

Mirror.The cook also revealed that even for Christmas, the trio will eat with their nannies in the nursery until they become of age to be more presentable during public affairs of state.“The children always ate in the nursery until they were old enough to conduct themselves properly at the dining table,” McGrady explained.The food connoisseur worked for the late Queen Elizabeth for about 15 years and previously dished all about the meals that she used to eat on a daily basis.The royal, who died last year, once claimed on his YouTube channel that the monarch loved to munch on jam sandwiches during high teatime.“The queen was served jam pennies in the nursery as a little girl.

The Princess of Wales has expertly navigated life as a member of the Royal Family and has found many worthwhile causes to support - from children's mental health to early years development. While this is the case, there is one crucial part of Royal life that she has previously admitted to struggling with. Members of the Royal Family need a strong work ethic and the ability to listen to people from all different walks of life.The King and members of his family find themselves at events with people from around the world which means they are constantly surrounded by different languages.

Prince William and David Beckham have been slammed for their messages of support to the Lionesses. Football legend David, who played for the England men’s team from 1996 to 2009, and the future King, both posted videos wishing the team luck ahead of their clash with Spain on 20 August. Despite a valiant effort, the Lionesses were beaten one-nil by Spain in a tense clash.

Members of the Royal Family must abide by a series of strict rules and codes of conduct at all times, whether that is adhering to specific protocol, attending events or arriving in a particular order. While household rules are certainly not as steeped in pressure, the Prince and Princess of Wales also have a selection of rules for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis to follow at home.

King Charles, as well as the Prince and Princess of Wales, are sharing their support for the English Women’s National Football Team after their loss to Spain in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 final.

Prince William and Kate Middleton have led the messages of congratulations as the victorious Lionesses reached their first ever World Cup final. England booked their place in Sunday’s final with a thrilling 3-1 win over co-hosts Australia in front of a crowd of 75,784 in Sydney on Wednesday. Ella Toone opened the scoring for the Lionesses after 36 minutes when she thumped the ball home from 10 yards when Australia failed to clear a Lauren Hemp cross.

Kate Middleton apparently let her hair down last weekend at an electronic musical festival, leaving William at home with their three kids.

One of the key skills that will be drummed into young royals from the earliest opportunity will be the importance of having good manners which will best prepare them for a lifetime of public service. In doing this, it would seem Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have been taught a sweet habit that their late grandmother Diana, Princess of Wales, encouraged her own children to do.

When the Princess of Wales appears at her various engagements, she often speaks about her three young children and what their favourite hobbies are. It is clear from her public appearances that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis take after the Princess in many ways - from their love of sports to enjoying cooking.

Kate Middleton reportedly faced a ‘cutting comment’ from her grandmother-in-law, the late Queen, over her choice of renovation. The Prince and Princess of Wales were gifted the luxury Anmer Hall country retreat on the Sandringham estate as a wedding present from Her Majesty.

The Prince of Wales is a keen football fan and is frequently joined by Prince George in the stands to watch big matches involving England or their beloved Aston Villa team. As President of the Football Association (FA), Prince William plays a key role in supporting various teams in their competitions around the world.

Last year saw a series of enormous changes for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis as they moved house, changed schools and lost their great-grandmother within the space of a few weeks. While it would have been a disruptive period for the three young royals, it is clear they have settled in at Lambrook School and will be enjoying everything the exclusive school has to offer.

First it was the ‘Diana Effect’, then it was the ‘Kate Effect’ and now it’s the royal children’s turn. Whether it is Prince George, Princess Charlotte or Prince Louis, whatever the royal trio are seen wearing at an engagement or in public is guaranteed to be an instant sell-out.

Much like her mother, Princess Charlotte, eight, is already a keen sportswoman who has a love of everything from tennis to rugby. However, another sport that she is fond of is football - as her Prince William adorably pointed out last year. During a visit to meet the England Lionesses - who yesterday triumphed 6-1 over China in the Women's World Cup - the heir to the throne made a sweet admission about his daughter.

Sky News discussing jokes with guests Aldith Grandison, 93, and her daughter, Jay Cee La Bouche.Kate can be heard admitting, “I’m terrible. I’m terrible at jokes,” adding that Prince William is “very good” at them.When Grandison suggested “You’re the strict one” in the royal duo, Kate was quick to laugh it off, saying, “I’m definitely not strict! How can you tell that? Surely not!”Both William and Kate are keen on providing a healthy dose of normalcy to the royal lives and roles of their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, a palace insider recently told People.“Those children look pretty happy with life,” the source said.

When the royals are in the privacy of their own home, they do not refer to one another by their titles but instead have their own silly nicknames for one another, like most ordinary families do.

The Royal Family's long-standing summer traditions include several public events, appearances and, of course, their annual trip to their beloved Scottish retreat in Aberdeenshire.

Fairytale royal weddings don’t happen very often, but when they do there's a touch of magic in the air. Even though 2011 will always be remembered as the year that the Prince and Princess of Wales tied the knot at Westminster Abbey, it was also when Zara and Mike Tindall married after eight years together.

The royal family is learning from its past to avoid future scandals.

Kate Middleton has been described as 'tougher' than she lets on, with one royal expert claiming she is playing the 'long game'. Valentine Low recently revealed that the Princess of Wales was 'a lot more steely' behind the scenes, despite appearing quite demure and quiet in public.
