Early Life & Childhood

Prince George was born on July 22, 2013, at St Mary’s Hospital in London. He was the first child of Prince William and Kate Middleton, who had married in 2011. He was also the third great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II and the first grandchild of Prince Charles. His birth was celebrated across the Commonwealth realms with gun salutes, bell ringing, and light shows. He was named George Alexander Louis after his great-great-grandfather King George VI, his great-grandfather Prince Philip, and his father.

Prince George was christened on October 23, 2013, at St James’s Palace by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He wore a replica of the lace and satin christening gown that had been worn by his ancestors since 1841. His godparents were Zara Tindall (his father’s cousin), Oliver Baker (his parents’ friend), Emilia Jardine-Paterson (his mother’s friend), Hugh Grosvenor (the son of the Duke of Westminster), Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton (his father’s former private secretary), Julia Samuel (his late grandmother Diana’s friend), and William van Cutsem (his father’s childhood friend).

Prince George spent his first years in Anmer Hall, a country house in Norfolk that was given to his parents by the Queen. He also lived in Kensington Palace in London when his parents were working there. He had a nanny named Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, who was from Spain and spoke to him in Spanish. He also had a pet dog named Lupo, a black cocker spaniel.

Prince George started his education at Westacre Montessori School Nursery in Norfolk in January 2016. He then moved to Thomas’s Battersea School in London in September 2017. He is currently in Year 4 and enjoys subjects such as math, science, art, music, drama, and sports. He also learns French and Spanish at school.

He also loves spending time with his grandparents Charles and Camilla, Michael and Carole Middleton, and his great-grandmother Elizabeth II. He often visits them at their residences or joins them for holidays.

Prince George has many hobbies and interests that reflect his personality and passions. He loves animals and nature and likes to visit farms, zoos, parks, and gardens.


Some Unknown Information


  • He can be “naughty”. As a toddler, Prince George was something of a handful—so much so that his parents decided to leave him at home when they went on a 2016 trip to India. When asked why they didn’t bring him along, Prince William said: "He’s too naughty. He would be running all over the place."
  • He volunteers. Prince George and his family have been helping out their local community during the COVID-19 pandemic. They delivered homemade pasta to the elderly and vulnerable near their Norfolk home, and Prince George even helped prepare the packages himself.
  • He loves the British cartoon Fireman Sam. Prince George absolutely adores Fireman Sam, as his parents revealed in a BBC radio interview. “Fireman Sam is taking an awful lot of interest,” Prince William said, noting that he has to watch along with his son.
  • He has a secret nickname for Queen Elizabeth II. Prince George calls his great-grandmother “Gan-Gan”, a sweet term of endearment that he came up with himself. The Queen reportedly loves it and is very fond of her great-grandson.
  • He is bilingual. Prince George can speak both English and Spanish, thanks to his nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, who is from Spain and speaks to him in her native language. He also learns French at school.
  • He likes to cook. Prince George enjoys helping out in the kitchen, especially when it comes to making pizza dough and cheesy pasta. He also likes to make salads with his mother Kate.
  • He is allergic to horses. Prince George inherited his father’s allergy to horses, which means he can’t ride them or be around them for too long. However, he still likes to watch them and cheer for them at polo matches.
  • He has a gap in his teeth. Prince George has a cute gap between his two front teeth, which he showed off when he smiled for his eighth birthday portrait.
  • He likes helicopters. Prince George is fascinated by helicopters and planes, just like his father and uncle Prince Harry, who both served as pilots in the military. He even got to sit in one when he visited an air show with his parents.
  • He plays soccer. Prince George is a big fan of soccer (or football, as it is called in Britain) and supports the Aston Villa team, like his father. He also plays soccer himself and has been seen kicking a ball around with his sister Charlotte.
