Young Prince George reportedly requested a ‘specific dietary item’ while sailing with his family between Greek islands
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s family holiday yachting in the idyllic Greek islands supposedly had an un-royal food request from Prince George.
During the family’s sailing holiday on a superyacht last month, the future king’s eldest son reportedly had a specific dietary request from a particular restaurant on a Greek island. This very particular request was made as the royals left Kefalonia and were sailing south towards Zakynthos, before making a stop in the middle of the Ionian Sea.
One of the tender boats was dispatched on a mission to pick up a meal possibly from a famous fast food restaurant for the young prince. It comes after Princess Charlotte sparks frenzy with behind-the-scenes photos from Lionesses’ win.
A member of the superyacht crew was reportedly dispatched out for a “specific dietary item” not available on the superyacht. A tight-lipped source revealed why one of the tender heads travelled back to the mainland, according to the MailOnline.
They said: “George required a specific dietary item which led to the tender going ashore in Zakynthos to purchase it. Nothing extravagant, just something particular.”
This source did not reveal exactly what was picked up for the prince but Zakynthos is one of the few Greek islands to have a McDonald’s on the mainland. The young royal could have ditched the luxury meals on the superyacht for a Big Mac or chicken nuggets and fries.
While it is not clear what Prince George’s specific request was, some of the royals have been known to enjoy some fast food favourites most people also dig into. Princess Diana was known to sometimes give Prince William and Prince Harry KFC and burgers when they were growing up.
Some of Prince George’s favourite meals have been revealed in the past, as celebrity chef Aldo Zilli let slip what the young royal’s top dinner picks were after a chat with dad Prince William. Zilli shared: “[William’s] amazing – I’m waiting for the call because apparently his little boy’s favourite is spaghetti carbonara, so I’m waiting for the call to go and cook it for him.”
The chef added: “If George has my carbonara, he will never have another one, so I need to go and make it, let’s get the ball rolling, send me to the palace to cook.”
It’s not just spaghetti carbonara that tickles Prince George’s taste buds, the Princess of Wales has said that he and Princess Charlotte enjoy making a ‘cheesy pasta’ together at home, reports the Express.
In February 2019, Princess Kate, 42, visited a school in Enfield, north London, and spoke to Ivy Learning Trust’s chief executive Matthew Kleiner-Mann. He said: “She was telling us how much her children love cooking and how they cook for her.
“They made cheesy pasta the other day. One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in. And they make salads and stuff.”
