Prince William Revealed the Surprising Sport His Son Prince Louis ‘Loves’ at 5-Years-Old

While Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales’s children are more in the public eye than most other children, fans don’t know much about them. While we know some of their hobbies and passions, like eldest Prince George’s love for football like his dad, Princess Charlotte’s passion for gymnastics; but what about Prince Louis? While we know he’s a zany, expressive lil dude who goes around his homes with a toy car, he’s still only five and learning what he likes and dislikes.

However, proud papa William recently divulged while working with Surplus to Supper, per Parade via Yahoo, that his youngest child, Louis, “loves” the sport of cricket.

Kate has played cricket over the years, along with William, Prince Harry, King Charles III, and more. Cricket has a very special place with the British royals, and now, with Louis’ love for it, we’re sure another royal family member will be playing the sport soon. (Plus, it helps that Windsor Castle has hosted numerous cricket matches over the years, so they’re quite close to it all, per Cricket Mates.)

And before Kate started chemotherapy, during an event in Nov 2023, she revealed that Louis is “mad about rugby,” according to The Daily Mirror. Many royals have been photographed doing rugby numerous times over the years, so it’s clear Louis will grow up to be sporty like his parents!

For those who don’t know, William and Kate have been together on and off since 2003. They married in 2011, and have since welcomed three children named George, 9, Charlotte, 8, and Louis, 5, soon to be 6 on April 23!
