Prince William was left in stitches on Christmas morning as he watched Prince Louis wrestle with a gigantic stuffed bear handed to him by a well-wisher during the family’s traditional Sandringham walkabout. The Prince and Princess of Wales had paused outside St Mary Magdalene Church to greet the crowds when the seven-year-old received the toy. Louis grinned from ear to ear, his tiny arms wrapped around the enormous bear while balancing an already impressive pile of presents he had been given.
William could not help himself. He watched for a moment, then leaned down with a teasing smile. “It is almost the size of you, Louis.” He added another playful line. “You will have to carry it back.” Onlookers laughed as Louis tried his best to manoeuvre the huge bear, looking both overwhelmed and delighted. A clip of the interaction quickly made its way online and royal fans shared it widely.
