William and Kate wow the crowds at Australian Easter service

Princess Kate has once again left royal fans praising her approach to parenting as a recently resurfaced clip showed her taking Prince George to the zoo in Australia when he was a baby.

Kate and Prince William took their then-nine-month-old son with them on their royal tour Down Under in April 2014 and took him to Sydney Zoo to meet the bilbies.

Bilbies are long-eared rabbit like mammals native to Australia, and one of them at the zoo had been named after the young prince, who seemed eager to meet him.

In the clip posted to TikTok by the Royal Watcher account, baby George is excitedly bouncing up and down at their enclosure supported by Kate, who wipes away dribble from his mouth.

She then discreetly wipes her hand on the hem of her yellow dress, in a moment heralded by royal watchers for its relatability.

The royal fan who runs the account captioned the video: “Kate wiping Prince George’s dribble on her dress. Such a down to earth Mummy!”

The clip has been viewed almost 200,000 times since it was uploaded yesterday, with many fans delighted by Kate’s moment of normalcy while looking after her son.

One wrote: “Lol – down to earth!”, while another added: “WOW, she’s one up on me. I didn’t see the dribble!”

During the visit the sweet bilby came over to eat out of William’s hand, while a fearless George was determined to get to know the creature and reached out to stroke him.

However his parents pulled him back, with Kate saying: “He’s trying to grab his ear” and William chiming in: “If he gets it he’ll never let go.”

George celebrated his tenth birthday a couple of weeks ago, and since his trip to Australia he has been joined by his younger siblings Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

As he enters the next decade of his life George is already following in his father’s and grandfather’s footsteps with his views on enviromentalism and protecting the planet.

William told a BBC podcast in 2021 about his oldest child: “So George at school recently has been doing litter picking and I didn’t realise but talking to him the other day he was already showing that he was getting a bit confused and a bit sort of annoyed by the fact they went out litter picking one day and then the very next day they did the same route, same time and pretty much all the same litter they picked up back again.

“And I think that for him he was trying to understand how and where it all came from. He couldn’t understand, he’s like, ‘well, we cleaned this. Why has it not gone away?’”
