In recent reports, a source from the Palace shared how Kate Middleton and Prince William are preparing Prince George to become king amid his continued appearances at recent royal engagements.

Despite his young age, the young royal has been seen continuously alongside his family in public events, which has generated reactions from the public, who have been attentive to his good manners and skills to continue his legacy.

When Russell Myers of The Mirror told PEOPLE that “Even though he is so young, he seems to have grown in confidence over the last couple of years” about his reunion with veterans, a source from the palace answered:

“That is quite a responsibility to sit down and chat with veterans like that. It was incredible.”

This response assures that his parents’ influence and support to do these activities at his young age helped him to grow and understand his position, preparing him for his future role of king.
