Prince William revealed that his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, learned a new and handy farming skills on their school term break last week. The royal family was in their Norfolk estate, Anmer Hall, so that the kids could experience country life.
According to the Duke of Cambridge, Prince George and Princess Charlotte went "lambing" while Prince Louis fell in love with tractors during their time in the country in Norfolk. The proud dad added that his daughter wasn't sure what to do with the lambs at first while Prince George went straight to feeding the animals and enjoyed dairy farming.
Prince William revealed these bits about his kids during a visit to Cardiff to talk with injured players of the Welsh Rugby Union and meet the beneficiaries of the Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust ahead of the Six Nations game with France. The royal, who is patron of the union, was chatting with Rhian Roberts, who is, apparently, married to a dairy farmer.
Roberts shared that Prince William told her that he wants his kids to learn the country life. She said that the second in line to throne was quite down to earth.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte will be back to school this week at Thomas's Battersea in London. Their parents, on the other hand, will return to their busy grind, attending to royal engagements.
On Tuesday, Prince William and Kate Middleton will be watching a special performance of the Dear Evan Hansen cast for a belated date night after Valentine's Day. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are also set to reunite with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, in a public royal engagement for Commonwealth Day.
Prince William is also holding a series of meetings this week as he prepares to inherit his father's Duchy of Cornwall. Apparently, plans are in motion for Prince William to begin his training into managing and owning the billion-dollar empire.
The trip to the farm comes as Kate revealed in a podcast that they make it a point to let the royal kids outdoors. Kate said in the Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast that outdoor play removes all the pressures and complications of raising kids for parents. It's also great for the children's mental and physical well-being.
Kate herself grew up spending a lot of time outdoors with her siblings. She shared in the interview that she had a terrific grandmother who played with them and encouraged their activity with nature.
