Craig David has a unexpected fan in Prince George.
The 7 Days singer recently recounted an anecdote involving the nine-year-old prince after David’s performance at this summer’s Platinum Jubilee. David sang at the Platinum Party at the Palace event, which was a part of a series of celebrations to honor the late Queen Elizabeth’s 70 years on the throne.
After his performance, David went to Buckingham Palace for “a little soiree” alongside his mum, the singer said during a recent appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show.
“Prince William walks over, he comes over [and] says, ‘My son George was going crazy for the blue sequinned outfit that you were wearing,’” David recounted.
“My mum was there, I said, ‘Lovely to meet you, love that George loved the outfit,’” David added. “That moment for me, as a son [introducing my mum to Prince William], was probably the most incredible moment for me. Then Kate comes over. Very memorable moment.”
While the outfit might have caught George’s eye, all eyes were on Prince Louis at the start of the celebrations, as the three-year-old’s antics played perfectly to the cameras.
The youngest child of William and Kate Middleton memorably made a face during a flypast at Buckingham Palace during Trooping the Colour celebrations, while his great-grandmother let out a sly smile.
He showed off an array of faces and finger-pointing just a few days later at the Platinum Jubilee Pageant.
The now-Prince and Princess of Wales later acknowledged their son’s hijinks following the celebrations, writing at the time: “We all had an incredible time, especially Louis… 👀.”
