Fans of the British royal family were delighted when they spotted an adorable moment between Prince George and his father, Prince William, during a rehearsal for the upcoming Coronation. In a BBC documentary titled "Charles III: The Coronation Year," the young prince corrected his father's statement about their schedules, showcasing his confidence and intelligence.
Sweet Interaction Caught on Camera
As the family gathered at Westminster Abbey to go through the plans for King Charles's Coronation, an official asked Prince William if he would be present at the dress rehearsal. The future king responded, "I’m on Friday, George and I are back here on Friday." However, Prince George chimed in and corrected his father, saying, "I am here tomorrow." Prince William quickly acknowledged his son's correction and said, "You are here tomorrow."
Fans Praise Prince George's Voice and the Royal Family
Viewers of the documentary were quick to comment on the sweet interaction between Prince George and Prince William. Many expressed their delight at hearing Prince George's voice for the first time, and others praised the royal family as the "perfect" and "affectionate" family. The heartwarming moment added to the overall joy of watching the behind-the-scenes preparations for the Coronation.
Prince Charles's Affectionate Gestures
During the rehearsal, Prince Charles displayed his warmth and affection towards his grandchildren. The King-to-be was seen bending over to hug and kiss Prince George and Prince Louis. This gesture was particularly significant as Prince Harry had previously claimed that his father "never gives hugs." The documentary showed a different side of Prince Charles as he embraced his young grandchildren and laughed while practicing the kiss of homage, an important part of the Coronation ceremony.
Family Occasion and National Celebration
The Bishop of Hereford, Richard Jackson, who observed the rehearsal, remarked on the extraordinary affection and closeness within the royal family. He described the event as a family occasion, as well as a royal and national celebration. This glimpse into the royal family's dynamics highlighted their strong bond across multiple generations.
Prince Harry's Memoir and Buckingham Palace's Response
Prince Harry recently mentioned in his memoir, "Spare," that physical contact and displays of affection were rare within the older generation of the royal family. He claimed that hugs, kisses, and other forms of physical touch were discouraged. It remains to be seen whether Buckingham Palace or Prince Harry's Archewell foundation will comment on these revelations.
