That&#8217;s because their children are typically so well-behaved\u2014save for the rare yet remarkable instances when they aren&#8217;t\u2014that they&#8217;re downright impressive. Prince George&#8217;s behavior is particularly notable, as he has always seemed so much more mature and reserved, even at a young age.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While Prince William&#8217;s most recent comments about his children&#8217;s personalities reinforce so much of what we know (or suspected) about the way the royal kiddos act at home, he did let a surprising tidbit slip about Prince George that has us rethinking everything we thought we knew about the 12-year-old.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>\u00a0\ud83c\udfac<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/parade.com\/newsletters\/daily?utm_source=article&amp;utm_medium=top\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:SIGN UP for Parade\u2019s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news &amp; celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong> SIGN UP for Parade\u2019s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news &amp; celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a><strong> \ud83c\udfac<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prince William Shared an Update About His Children\u2019s Personalities<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We all know that the royals try to give their kiddos as much privacy as they can.
