From a young age, George has shown excitement over aircraft. He was thrilled to attend the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford in 2016, and during the family’s 2023 visit to the event, he was spotted experimenting with cockpit controls and touring various planes alongside Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Aviation isn’t the only subject where George excels. In an episode of The Reluctant Traveler on Apple TV, Prince William admitted to Eugene Levy that his eldest son has surpassed him in historical knowledge.
“If you want to know about history, I’m not the guy,” William said. “Actually, George, my son, is way better in history than I am. I have to check with him now on my dates. I think I probably need some history lessons… I could do with that.”
A Big Weekend for the Young Royal
Princess Kate’s latest comments follow Prince George’s debut at a major royal event just days earlier. On Saturday, Nov. 8, he joined his mother, King Charles, Queen Camilla, and other senior royals at the Royal British Legion’s Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall.
Prince William typically attends the event with Kate. However, PEOPLE reports that he was on a commercial flight home from Belém, Brazil — where travel options are limited — and arrived back in time to take part in the Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the Cenotaph the next morning.
Prince George may be young, but his growing passions — especially for aviation and history — are already capturing attention and continuing the royal family’s traditions in a charming way.
