Prince George, despite his royal status, is not exempt from the pressures of exams.
As the future king, the 10-year-old is set to undergo a series of tests that will greatly impact his future.
Recently, he even chose to prioritize his studies over attending an important event for his grandfather, Prince Charles.
While feeling the stress of these exams, Prince George can find comfort in the fact that his father, Prince William, has planned some fun activities to boost his motivation.
During a rare Q&A session on Instagram, Prince William shared his thoughts and plans as he reunited with his children at Windsor.
As a passionate football fan, he has passed on his love for Aston Villa to Prince George.
When asked which team he thought would win the European Cup this year, Prince William jokingly replied, “I shouldn’t say, will Villa win a European Cup this year is probably more accurate.”
He expressed excitement about watching Villa’s game against Alkmaar at Villa Park.
Although Prince William considered attending the match, he decided against it due to the jet lag caused by the 8-hour time difference between Singapore, where he was at the time, and England.
However, it is highly likely that Prince George joined his father for a watch party at home.
The young royal has previously accompanied his father to Villa games and thoroughly enjoys the experience.
It is not just Prince George who may be tuning in to the Aston Villa game.
Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, his younger siblings, might also be joining the watch party.
During a visit to Birmingham, Prince William mentioned that his younger two children might become fans of the team.
He said, “George is generally very happy with Villa.
Louis will hopefully choose his own team, and Charlotte’s just getting into football, so we’ll see.”
In April, Prince George and Prince William attended a home game together, where they enthusiastically cheered on the team.
The young prince seemed to be a clone of his father, wearing a navy jumper and light blue shirt combination.
Their mannerisms were so similar that they appeared to be animatedly discussing the game during breaks.
Prince George even jumped for joy and high-fived other spectators when Aston Villa scored in the second half.
During the match, Prince George and Prince William sat alongside Christian Perslow, the chief executive of Aston Villa, while Gareth Southgate, the manager of the men’s football team, was just a few rows ahead.
This outing served as an Easter treat for Prince George, as schools were closed for the break.
His passion for football has been evident as he accompanied his parents to the 2021 Euros, witnessing England’s victory over Germany and their journey to the final, although they ultimately lost to Italy on penalties.
As Prince George faces his upcoming exams, his father’s efforts to keep him motivated and engaged will surely play a crucial role.
With a love for football shared between them, the watch party for the Aston Villa game serves as a delightful break during this challenging period.
