RoyaltyHe is only eight years old, but little Prince George is already being groomed for the kingship. His parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, use sports competitions as a way to introduce their son to public life as a royal. This time the little prince was allowed to go to Wimbledon for the first time, where he was one of the first to take the trophy.

Puff and sweat, as the UK is currently being hit by a heat wave with temperatures above thirty degrees. But George was still neatly outfitted in a tailored suit and tie. Just like his father, Prince William, who stayed by his side all the time.

George not only went to watch the tennis match, he also met some players and employees. Before the start of the match, he was allowed to hold the coveted trophy of the tournament. “Wow, that one is very heavy”, he noted. In the end, it was his mother, Kate Middleton, who handed the cup to the victor: Novak Djokovic.

His first tennis match was one of prestige for George. The event was attended by several big stars, including Tom Cruise. The ‘Top Gun’ star was a bit behind the royal family in the VIP box.

For Kate and William, sports competitions are the ideal way to give their son a taste of royal life, without immediately overwhelming him. Like his father, George is a big sports fan. He was previously allowed to watch the World Cup. Because George is a direct heir to the throne, it is important that he is groomed for kingship from an early age. He needs to know how to behave in public, and how to conduct official meetings. However, his parents thought it was equally important to let him be an ordinary child for as long as possible. George only knows since last year that he will one day become king.
