In a heartwarming display of family traits being passed down through the generations, Prince George, the eldest son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, has adopted a hair move that his mother is known for. A TikTok montage featuring the young prince fixing his hair has gone viral, garnering over 750,000 views.
The video starts with throwback footage of a young Prince George, and a caption that reads, 'Catherine fixing George's hair when he was little.' We see Princess Kate gently brushing back her son's bangs during various public appearances, including the christening of Princess Charlotte in 2015 and Trooping the Colour in 2016.
As the video transitions to the present, the text overlay mentions how Prince George now ensures his hair is spotless. The footage shows candid moments where he catches his reflection in a car window and fixes his hair perfectly. Whether attending events or leaving churches on special occasions, Prince George takes a quick moment to ensure his hair is just right.
Fans of the royal family have taken notice of this adorable connection between Prince George and his mother. Some TikTok users have commented that even though Prince George may now be too old for his mother to fix his hair, she does the same with his younger brother, Prince Louis. Others have pointed out that Princess Diana, Prince William and Prince Harry's late mother, used to do the same with her sons.
The viral video of Prince George's hair-fixing habit came just before a significant event for the Prince William and Kate Middleton. On Christmas Day, the family made their last public appearance together before the palace announced the Princess of Wales' planned abdominal surgery. After her surgery, Princess Kate was discharged from the hospital and is now recovering at her home in Windsor.
The statement from Kensington Palace expressed gratitude for the well wishes received from around the world and assured that the Princess of Wales is making good progress in her recovery. Prince William postponed public duties to support his wife during her recovery and to care for their children.
The close bond within the royal family unit has been evident throughout this period. Robert Hardman, author of The Making of a King: King Charles III and the Modern Monarchy, explains that Prince William wants to be there for his family during this time. He emphasizes the tight-knit nature of the family and Prince William's dedication to supporting his wife and children.
While Princess Kate continues her private recovery, her father-in-law, King Charles, also underwent surgery recently. After leaving the hospital, the King is expected to take a period of private recuperation. The royal family has expressed their gratitude for the support and well wishes they have received during this time.
This touching display of Prince George adopting his mother's hair move reminds us of the deeper connections and traditions that exist within families, even those as influential and public as the British royal family. It serves as a sweet reminder of the shared love and care that bonds parents and children, regardless of their social status.
