Prince Louis shakes grandpa Princes Charles' hand in adorable new photo
Words by Olivia Morris.
Prince Charles has proved he is very much a doting grandfather in a heartwarming new photo released by Buckingham Palace.
The heir to the throne is seen playing affectionately with his youngest grandson, Prince Louis, who is being held by his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge.
The youngest child of Prince William and Kate proved he is giving his elder siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte a run for their money in the cuteness department, as he is seen shaking his grandpa Charles’ hand.
The adorable snap – taken by photographer Chris Jackson – was released by Buckingham Palace ahead of the UK premiere of a new BBC documentary titled Prince, Son and Heir: Charles at 70.
Prince Charles as the doting grandfather
In the documentary, Charles’ wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall gushed about how amazing a grandparent her husband is.
“He will get down on his knees and crawl about with them for hours, you know making funny noises and laughing and my grandchildren adore him, absolutely adore him,” she said, according to The Express.
“He reads Harry Potter and he can do all the different voices and I think children really appreciate that.”
His eldest son, Prince William, also praised his father’s grandparenting capabilities, although he admitted he would like Charles to “have more time with the children”.
