Recently, Prince William and Prince George showed their close relationship! At Wembley Stadium, the royal couple was seen watching some football play. They attended the FA Cup final, when George, who is 10 years old, showed his father’s enthusiasm for the sport. This outing shows the child’s growth and improved confidence. Kate and Will’s parenting style even reminded an ex-BBC correspondent of Princess Diana’s. Check it out!
Prince William: Guides George with Diana’s Timeless Wisdom
“He’s a handsome little boy and clearly idolizes Prince William,” remarked Jennie Bond, a former BBC royal journalist. She thinks that these kinds of outings help the father and son bond, particularly during the tumultuous time at home. Bond was referring to Middleton’s continued cancer treatment. Furthermore, ever since making his first public appearances, George has always behaved politely. Bond says it’s because of his upbringing and awareness of his upcoming royal responsibilities.
At home, away from the public eye, George exhibits a distinct personality. “I’m sure he and William have some rough and tumble, father-and-son fun behind the scenes.” The Prince and Princess of Wales are assisting him in balancing regal manners with typical 10-year-old antics. In addition, the royal observer recalls on her time with the late Princess Diana, pointing up similarities in parenting techniques. “She (Diana) told me that she was firm that they would have a different outlook on life to other royal princes.”
Bond described how the late Princess balanced play days with work days, allowing them to be regular kids or behave like princes. There were times when Prince William and Harry could wear jeans and baseball caps, eat burgers, and race around in go-karts. Then there were formal days when they had to wear suits and ties and act like princes. During the game, Will provided George with some light encouragement as they presented the FA Cup to Manchester United’s captain, Bruno Fernandes.
Furthermore, Prince William and George looked excellent in navy suits with striped ties. This enjoyable outing occurred immediately before the announcement that Middleton has been spending family time “out and about.” Also, Jennie believes Kate’s expertise in early childhood development would have helped her handle her children’s concerns about her health. And get this: the future King would have taken cues from her. Bond stated that George has faced difficult circumstances in recent years, which have shaped his future as a royal.
Unlike Charlotte and Louis, his life path was determined from infancy. Despite the dynamics, William and Kate have helped George recognize and deal with his future responsibilities. The duo has made him feel supported and heard. “I hope they have calmed him, explained to him, and – more than anything – listened to him.” Let’s hope Prince George doesn’t sacrifice his youth for future aspirations and duties.
