Duchess of Cambridge reveals three-year-old Prince George loves baking with mum, but is very messy
Kate talked about her children while visiting a Luton youth centre with her husband Prince William
THE Duchess of Cambridge plays the Great British Kate-Off with Prince George, she revealed yesterday.
Mum-of-two Kate, 34, said she loves baking with George, three, but he's very messy.
Seeing teenagers cook chocolate rice cakes at Bute Mills youth centre in Luton, she said: "So what are you making, this smells seriously good, what are you putting in?
"Is this just chocolate? Golden syrup? Good, good.
"When I try to do this with George at home, chocolate and the golden syrup goes everywhere. "He makes so much mess. It's chaos."
Kate even took a bite of one, while Wills wolfed one down.
She also revealed George loves to play with pasta.
Mum Suzanne Dow met the Duchess at a kids' hospice in Luton and said: "George likes his spaghetti as well, he loves to get messy."
At the Keech Hospice, which helps terminally ill children and their families, William admitted he misses his mum Diana "every day".
Meeting Ben Hines, 14, who also lost his mum, the royal put a hand in his shoulder and said: "Time makes it easier".
After Ben told him about his mum Alexandra who died from cancer last year, William said: “I know how you feel.
"I still miss my mother every day – and it’s 20 years after she died.”
Diana, Princess of Wales, died in a car crash in Paris on 31 August 1997 when he was just 15.
