“This is what I want to do when I grow up!” Coming from a future king of England, this sentence is enough to make you smile. It proves, in any case, that Prince George, his sister Princess Charlotte and their youngest, Prince Louis, are raised like any other children aged 11, 9 and 6, sharing the same toddler dreams. It was during a trip to a pizzeria that the eldest of Prince William and his wife Kate would have found “his calling”.

Desmond MacCarthy, owner of Wiveton Hall Cafe, a restaurant not far from the Sandringham estate on which Wales has a second home, tells Daily Mail that he is at the origin of the vocation of the future heir to the throne. A few weeks ago, Kate walked into the Norfolk facility with her son and a few friends. When the chef shows little George how the wood-fired oven in which the delicious pizzas are cooked works, he exclaims in the most normal way that he wants to prepare pizzas for a living. “He’s a nice boy,” said Desmond MacCarthy.
Is this really a surprise? Prince George and pizza is a great love story. On October 14, 2023, he attended the Argentina-Wales rugby match with his father in the stands of the Vélodrome stadium in Marseille, as part of the World Cup. The next day, Sir Bill Beaumont, the president of World Rugby and former England team player, teases Kate about Prince George. “He enjoyed the pizza,” the ex-rugby player remarked to the Princess of Wales. “Yes I know, that’s what I understood,” Kate replies with a smile. Pizza and sport, the winning combination of a very good evening for the young boy. A few months earlier, he had been caught in the act alongside his father in the stands of a cricket match. Focused on the match, George devours a slice of pizza to the delight of the photographers.
This passion for pizza is a family heritage. Wales enjoy cooking it themselves, going so far as to make the dough at home. “I do it regularly with George and Charlotte,” she confided in 2018, as reported Hello !. “They love it because they can put their hands in it.” Prince William loves it too, and the couch remembers it every time. During a trip to Cyprus, among the military, in 2018, Kate did not fail to point out her husband’s bad habits. Pointing to a stain on the barracks couch, the heir to the throne exclaimed, “don’t eat pizza on the couch.” To which his wife immediately responded, “you’re a nightmare with that.” Before considering a career as a pizza maker, Prince George will have to wait a bit. For the internship at Wiveton Hall Cafe, in any case, it’s shabby. The restaurant closes its doors at the end of the year. You’ll have to practice at home!
