Prince Louis is showing signs of growing up fast, with his new-found love for gardening.
The outdoor hobby, also enjoyed by other Royal Family members including his mum, Kate Middleton, and King Charles, shows just how quickly the five year old is maturing.
After a busy day at his posh Lambrook school in Windsor, which costs £50,000 a year, Louis loves to spend time outdoors. Kate revealed: "Louis comes home and says 'I need to get my energy out'."
The Princess of Wales has often spoken about her little boy's passion for gardening. In 2020, during Children's Hospice Week, she helped plant a garden at The Nook, one of East Anglia's Children's Hospices (EACH) in Norfolk.
She shared that Louis seems to have inherited her green fingers, saying: "The children are really enjoying growing their sunflowers, Louis's is winning so George is a little grumpy about that!" Louis also joined his siblings in May, volunteering at The Big Help Out.
He was seen operating a digger with his dad, filling a bucket with soil and dumping it on a heap. Later, the prince filled a wheelbarrow with what looked like builders' sand.
Kate revealed at the Chelsea Flower Show that Louis has been growing sunflowers at school. "They get so big, don't they?" she said.
"Louis is growing broad beans at school. You put them in a cup and you can see the roots growing. They get big quickly, like sunflowers." Kate's love for the outdoors is shared by all her children, including Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
George helps with farm chores at Anmer Hall, their country home, and Charlotte loves nature too. Carole Middleton, the kids' grandmother, also enjoys gardening with her royal grandchildren.
Away from formalities, Kate and William have adorable nicknames for their three young children. According to My London, the doting dadreportedly calls Princess Charlotte 'Mignonette', which means "small and delicate" in French.
It's also been said that Kate calls her only daughter 'Lottie', a fact she revealed to a royal fan in Ireland a few years ago. According to reports, George's name is shortened to PG and even 'Tips', in a nod to the British family-favourite tea brand.
