Prince William just shared the adorable bedtime routine that he shares with his three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

During his royal engagement in Wales, the Duke of Cambridge saw a young girl reading Julia Donaldson’s “Room On the Broom.” Prince William struck up a conversation with the young royal fan and said that he reads the exact same book to his kids.

Prince William also revealed that he had the opportunity to meet Donaldson when she received her CBE for services to literature. During their conversation, Kate Middleton’s husband joked about Donaldson saving a lot of parents during bedtime.

“David Williams also does good books for children – for a little bit older children, I think. I’ve read one and it was really, really good,” he said.

Meanwhile, Prince William also made headlines during his outing with Middleton after they were photographed making funny faces while eating ice cream.

During their trip to Joe’s Ice Cream Parlor on Mumbles Road, Prince William told the store owner that he’s a fan of chocolate-flavored ice cream. The Duke of Cambridge was given two varieties, one vanilla, and one chocolate.

Middleton, on the other hand, had vanilla ice cream in a cup with a wafer. The Duchess of Cambridge told the children at the ice cream parlor that she didn’t think she could finish the entire cup.

Prince William and Middleton seemed to enjoy their dessert, and Prince William didn’t stop until he finished his chocolate ice cream on a cone.

In related news, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also visited a lifeboat in South Wales. Photos of the royal couple show them wearing hard hats and matching overcoats while at Port Talbot Steelworks.

“How does she do it? Kate Middleton looks fab even in overall and a hard hat,” The Sun tweeted.

“Aaaahhh real princess! Not a plastic yank!” Twitter user @Hartley61732559 said.
