Prince Louis Spills the Tea: Princess Charlotte’s Hilarious “Review” of His Gymnastics Skills at the Commonwealth Games
Even royal status can’t shield Prince Louis from classic sibling teasing. During a rare family outing to the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, the eight-year-old prince offered a candid, lighthearted glimpse into life at home, revealing that his sister, Princess Charlotte, remains thoroughly unimpressed by his newest athletic endeavor.
Joining their parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, and older brother Prince George, the young royals stopped by Wales House to meet with Welsh medal-winning twin gymnasts Abigail and Emily Roper.

As the conversation turned toward training, conditioning, and flexibility, Princess Catherine proudly brought up her youngest son’s recent hobby:
-
The Handstand Review: When Princess Catherine mentioned that Louis has been working on his handstands, the eight-year-old was quick to set expectations straight with disarming honesty: “A bit, but Charlotte says I’m not very good.”
-
Charlotte’s Confidence: Asked if she could perform the move herself, 11-year-old Princess Charlotte confidently confirmed she could, with Prince William chiming in that his daughter possesses a natural passion for gymnastics, ballet, and dance.
-
George’s Candid Confession: Not to be left out of the athletic critique, 13-year-old Prince George drew laughs from the athletes with his own self-deprecating assessment: “I’m rubbish at anything that involves flexibility.”
A Big School Year on the Horizon
The charming interaction comes as the Wales children prepare for major academic milestones:
-
Prince George’s Next Step: Prince George is officially preparing to start at Eton College, following in the footsteps of Prince William and Prince Harry.
-
Continuing Traditions: Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will continue their studies at Lambrook School in Berkshire, keeping the lively sibling dynamic close to their Windsor home at Adelaide Cottage.
