Prince William is sharing sweet details about his youngest child, Prince Louis. As hello! According to reports, the Prince of Wales hosted a Buckingham Palace garden party on May 21 on behalf of his father, King Charles III. While socializing with guests, the heir to the throne gave some adorable insight into Louis' bedtime ritual.
This conversation is with writer Rowan Aderyn, a member of William's homeless charity Homewards Foundation. When Adeline presented their book Homewards to the senior royal, he reportedly said: "This is fantastic, so inspiring. I will read this to Louis before bed tonight."
Homewards, named after William's foundation, tells the story of a young boy named Jack who sets out to help a homeless woman.
The Prince of Wales previously discussed his three children's love of literature during a visit to South Wales in 2020. According to the Daily Mail , William revealed to other parents at an ice cream shop that he reads Julia Donaldson's Room on the Broom to Louis, Prince George and Princess Charlotte "all the time."
During the royal outing, William shared that he met Donaldson when she was being awarded a Commander of the Order of the British Empire for services to literature and told her, "Do you know how many parents you've saved at bedtime?"
William and Kate Middleton reportedly have similar bedtime routines to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and their children.
In 2021, a source told Us Weekly that the Duke of Sussex had "real magic" when it came to putting his daughter, Princess Lilibet Diana, to bed at night. "He loves reading her bedtime stories and rocking her to sleep," the insider said.
