A Royal Slice of Life: Prince William’s Heartwarming Moments with George

On a sunny Friday at the Oval Cricket Ground, shared a delightful memory that tugged at heartstrings everywhere.

As a devoted father of three, he recounted a charming father-son outing with his eldest child, Prince George.

The royal revealed that during last summer's Ashes cricket match between England and Australia, his young son was more focused on devouring pizza than the game itself.

With a smile, he promised to take George to watch cricket again in Notts next time.

The touching moments didn't stop there.

At the Diana Legacy Awards, surprised attendees by selecting the iconic ACDC track “Thunderstruck” as part of the ceremony.

He later revealed that this energetic anthem is Prince George's favorite song.

This personal touch not only made the event memorable but also offered a glimpse into the musical tastes of the royal family, particularly those of young George.

Last year, the father-son duo enjoyed a special day together in the sunshine at a sporting event in Marseille, France.

This marked a significant occasion, as it was the first time the ten-year-old had attended a royal function outside the UK since he was a toddler.

With his siblings, and , absent, George relished the rare one-on-one time with his dad, a vital experience for any child.

Amidst the cricket excitement, George was spotted enjoying a margarita pizza from a takeaway box.

Interestingly, this casual dining choice would have raised eyebrows for his late great-grandmother, who never ordered pizza during her reign.

Former royal chef Darren McGrady even noted that II never once requested such fast food while dining at Buckingham Palace.

Princess Catherine was informed about George's pizza indulgence by world rugby chairman Sir Bill Beaumont, who remarked on how much the young prince enjoyed his meal.

The Duchess of Cambridge, well aware of her son's penchant for pizza—having made it with him and his siblings at home—responded, “Yes, I know, I did hear that.”

It seems George fully embraced the moment, a sentiment that Catherine, coming from a family of three herself, could easily understand.

Though no one is directly pointing fingers, Prince William appears to share his children's enthusiasm for pizza.

His own mother, , encouraged her sons to enjoy regular childhood experiences, which may explain William's willingness to indulge in fast food alongside his kids.

He has previously been seen taking to a pizza party, and it's no secret that he sometimes gets into trouble with Catherine for sneaking pizza on the couch.

George's carefree approach to eating at the cricket match charmed royal fans, who found delight in Prince William's relatable parenting moment.

However, according to McGrady, the late Queen's Victorian upbringing dictated that eating with fingers was reserved for afternoon tea, leaving fans to wonder if she ever had a taste for pepperoni pizza—though it is known she enjoyed the occasional kebab.

For the outing, William looked dapper in a light blue button-down shirt, paired with a gray tweed blazer and stylish silver-rimmed sunglasses.

Meanwhile, young George sported a checked black-and-white shirt complemented by a dark blue sports coat adorned with gold buttons at the cuffs, showcasing his royal flair.

This heartwarming outing follows a sweet Father's Day celebration for the Wales family, where Kensington Palace shared a charming photo of William surrounded by all three of his children.

The family donned coordinated light blue outfits, beaming with smiles as George and Charlotte gazed up at their father while Louis playfully draped his arms over William's shoulders.

Last year, during Trooping the Colour, the Wales children joined their mother Catherine and grandmother Queen in the carriage procession for ' birthday parade.

Dressed in black and white with red accents, they perfectly captured the essence of the royal family's color scheme reminiscent of the Welsh flag.
