Prince William Reveals How He Managed to Snag Some “Street Cred” With His Son Prince George

Royals, they’re just like us! Even if Prince William is recognized all over the world, it doesn’t automatically mean that his son, Prince George, thinks he’s a cool dad. In fact, it wasn’t until William revealed a bit of his past as a RAF search and rescue pilot that little George decided his dad wasn’t just a boring future King after all.

According to People, the 36-year-old revealed how he finally managed to snag some “street cred” with his firstborn during a speech he delivered on Thursday, June 21. “I have been the Patron of the DNRC for four years and I have enjoyed every single moment of it,” he said at the official unveiling of a new state-of-the-art rehabilitation center for injured servicemen and women.

“Along the way, I have demolished a building — George was at an age at the time that he loved seeing the digger in action, so it did my street cred as a father a world of good.” How adorable! We’re happy to know that William and George have something to bond over.

Beyond their shared love of planes and demolition, both princes have a few other things in common. For starters, William and George share the same zodiac sign — Cancer! George’s 5th birthday is on July 22, while William’s 36th birthday is on June 21.

Secondly, after the birth of Prince Louis, Prince George knows what it means to have a little brother, just like his daddy! Of course, George has been a big brother for quite some time now. His sister, Princess Charlotte, has gotten so big that she’s able to wear George’s hand-me-downs.
