During a visit to Poundberry, a model town development near Dorchester in Dorset, King Charles shared his heartfelt sentiments with reporters, revealing his deep affection for his granddaughter.

“She is beautiful,” he remarked, adding, “I was hoping for a granddaughter, someone to look after me when I am very old.”

The King's genuine happiness at being a grandfather is evident in his interactions with his grandchildren.

His wife, the Queen Consort, offered insights into Charles's role as a grandfather, highlighting his playful and caring nature.

Camilla described how Charles would joyfully engage with the children, getting down on his knees, crawling around, making funny noises, and spending hours playing with them.

This endearing quality of King Charles has endeared him to his grandchildren, who absolutely adore him.

With a total of 10 grandchildren and step-grandchildren between them, Charles and Camilla share a close bond with their extended family.

Camilla praised Charles for his storytelling skills, mentioning how he would read Harry Potter to the children, complete with different voices, which the youngsters greatly appreciated.

Prince William, in an interview for the BBC documentary “Prince, Son and Heir, Charles at 70,” lauded his father's role as a grandfather, describing him as brilliant.

However, William expressed a desire for Charles to spend more quality time with his grandchildren.

Acknowledging the demands on Charles's time, especially as he turned 70, William emphasized the importance of consolidating family bonds and ensuring the King's well-being.

While Charles is known for his active lifestyle and fitness, William stressed the significance of cherishing moments at home and playing with the grandchildren.

In his reflections on Charles's role as a grandfather, William highlighted the King's exceptional qualities when he is present with the grandchildren.

Describing Charles as brilliant in his interactions with the children, William expressed a heartfelt wish for his father to be able to spend more time with the younger members of the family.
