Kate Middleton reveals her son Prince Louis' quirky but adorable hobby
How sweet!
Kate Middleton has shared a very sweet habit her young son, Prince Louis, has.
And let’s just say, it is pretty quirky!
The Princess of Wales, 43, revealed one of her son’s latest hobbies whilst out and about with US First Lady Melania Trump on Thursday (September 18).
Kate Middleton shares Prince Louis’ latest passion
You might expect a young prince to be fond of sport, arts or maybe collecting things like comic books or toys – but Prince Louis has a different hobby lately.
In fact, it seems he loves the outdoors just as much as his grandfather King Charles and dad Prince William.
According to Kate, Louis loves to collect conkers, which are falling from the trees at this time of year.
The princess explained that seven-year-old Louis has such a passion for collecting conkers, she finds them “all over their home”.
Kate shared this sweet insight into Prince Louis’ childhood whilst hosting a group of Squirrel Scouts with the US First Lady Melania.
Princess Kate’s outing with Melania Trump
The two women helped the children complete nature activities to earn Go Wild badges.
They were seen crouching down to chat with the youngsters, sitting around tables, and later played a parachute game with the group.
According to PA, Kate, joint president of the Scouts, chatted to Chief Scout Dwayne Fields about her son Louis in the gardens of Frogmore House.
She told him: “We keep finding conkers in cupboards, in his bed – conkers everywhere!”
Mr Fields smiled as Kate disclosed Louis’ love for conkers and the Princess of Wales added that her youngest child even puts the conkers in his toy vehicles and plays with them.
The children in attendance at Kate and Melania’s outing were reportedly served oat and cranberry biscuits from the royal kitchens made with honey from Kate’s beehives at her Norfolk home, Anmer Hall.
Mrs Trump even brought her own gifts for the children. Each child was given a jar of White House honey to take home – yum!
Not only that, they tucked into lunch boxes organised by the princess, made up of finger sandwiches, fruit and sticks of raw vegetables.
Chief Scout Dwayne Fields said of the event: “Having someone with the profile of the Princess of Wales as joint president, you can imagine it’s incredible for the young people to see her. I think it’s a great thing to have her shine a light on the movement.”
Princess Kate’s sweet interaction with the Scouts
As per The Mirror, Kate got stuck in to chatting with the youngsters.
She reportedly told them: “I like bees, do you think bees will come into your hotel?”
Kate also enquired of a cardboard bug hotel being made by the children: “Where can they make their honey?”
One boy replied: “Down here.” He then pointed to the bottom of the cardboard hotel. The princess also took time to chat to the children about their drawings.
How sweet!
