Prince William reveals he’s been baking to pass time in lockdown but says he’s worried about the ‘nation’s waistline’
THE coronavirus lockdown has divided the country into two distinct groups - those who have taken up jogging to pass the time and the rest of us who can't stop baking.
And it turns out, this rule even applies to the Royals - as Prince William has admitted he's become a keen baker in lockdown.
Yesterday, the Duke of Cambridge visited ambulance workers in Kings Lynn, Norfolk in his first face-to-face royal visit since the coronavirus lockdown began.
Chatting to the key workers, Prince William joked: "I'm worried about the waistline of the nation as well with all the chocolate and cakes.
"I've done a lot of baking at home. Chocolate goes down very well!"
But this isn't the first time Prince William has joked about his sweet-tooth - as over the Easter period, Kate Middleton accused of him eating all the kids' chocolate.
Appearing on Zoom to wish school children in Lancashire a happy Easter, Prince William said: "There will be a lot of chocolate being eaten here, don't worry!"
Kate then quipped: "You keep eating it!"
Last year, the royal couple got competitive as they showed off their baking skills as they appeared on Mary Berry's Christmas BBC special to give back to emergency workers over the Christmas period.
What's more, the proud dad also got stuck into making a traditional Christmas pudding last December with Prince George, Prince Charles and The Queen.
And it appears as though Prince William takes after his grandmother with his love of sweet treats - as her former chef revealed the Queen is a total "chocaholic".
In more Royal Family news, Prince Louis uses Mary Berry cookbooks to show Kate Middleton what he wants to eat – and he cheers when she’s on telly.
And The Queen is a huge Doctor Who fan, takes the boxset to Balmoral and even has a favourite time lord.
Plus Prince William was so desperate to meet Kate Middleton he literally fell for her & these were his bashful first words.
