Kate Middleton Reveals an Unusual Item Prince Louis Hides ‘Everywhere’

Loose change, tiny toys, scraps of paper, pebbles, and more are found in the pockets of my three boys’ clothes when I do the laundry. It’s all part of motherhood! Kate Middleton experiences something similar with her 7-year-old son Prince Louis, who she shares with husband Prince William. The royal recently revealed the unusual item that she is finding “everywhere” in her house thanks to her youngest child, and it’s so darn relatable.

The Princess of Wales and First Lady Melania Trump visited with a scouting group on Thursday morning in Windsor. The Squirrel Scouts had to complete nature activities to earn Go Wild badges, which the women helped them with. At one point, Middleton shared a tidbit about Louis with Chief Scout Dwayne Fields.

“We keep finding conkers in cupboards, in his bed – conkers everywhere!” she said, per The Mirror. She added that Prince Louis will even put conkers in his toy trucks to play with them.

So, conkers — what exactly are those?! According to Historic UK, conkers are the fruit of the horse chestnut tree which fall from trees in September and October.

“Inside the prickly green casing lie the fruits – brown, shiny, and hard – which are still avidly collected by children all over Britain,” stated the website.

Apparently, schoolchildren used to play the game of conkers, where they would drill a hole and tie a string in the conkers, then try to hit the opponent’s conker to break it. Kids are pretty smart when it comes to finding new (and vaguely dangerous?) ways of playing outside.

At the national federation of the Women’s Institute earlier this month, someone asked Prince William if Prince Louis was “a bit of a handful,” and we love his thoughtful reply. “He’s a character, but he’s a very good boy,” William said, defending his son. He added that Louis “likes to run his sister [Charlotte, 10] around.”

Then, he revealed that even though Prince George, 12, is about five years older than his little brother, he doesn’t always act as mature as he seems during public appearances. “Behind closed doors it’s a completely different ball game,” William replied.

It’s not hard to imagine Prince Louis playing conkers with his older siblings!
