It turns out Prince George has a casual nickname for his father Prince William—and it’s the cutest thing you’ll hear today.
According to a recent article published by People, “During a 2018 visit to Leicester, Kate Middleton revealed that her three children—Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4—have a sweet name for their dad.” The outlet adds that a source allegedly told reporters, “Kate said that William was playing football with the children last night and one of them said, I think it was George, ‘Are you playing football tomorrow, Pops?'”
Yup, that’s right. The royal children apparently call their dad, “Pops.” So adorable!
