Prince George’s Secret Talent Proves He’s Spreading His Wings
See Prince George's Reunion With Dad Prince William Amid School Break
Prince George is displaying a crowning achievement.
The eldest son of Prince William and Kate Middleton showed off his immense artist talent in an upcoming issue of Country Life magazine, guest-edited by his father, with a drawing of a kingfisher done by the 13-year-old.
George’s drawing features the bird with dark green and yellow plumage—and the signature pointed bill of a kingfisher—perched on top of a piece of wood, gazing off into the distance.
And he’s had a knack for the arts for years. Back in 2022, he drew a portrait of a reindeer that his family—including siblings Princess Charlotte, 11, and Prince Louis, 8—shared as their Christmas card on Instagram that year.
It's no wonder that he has picked up a palette, as both his mother and his grandfather King Charles III are quite artistically inclined as well. Kate received her degree in art history and has previously displayed her skills, posting a sketch of St. Andrews in Scotland in 2021 as well as photographing the royal family over the years. Charles, meanwhile, is known for his landscapes, often depicting Balmoral Castle in Scotland, Windsor Castle and other royal properties.
As for Kate, she shared a look at the whole family’s art skills in 2025, posting portraits she and her children had drawn to Instagram that had provided “a moment of connection”—although she did not say who had drawn which portrait.
In recent months George has been keeping busy not only with art but also as a student at Eton College while he prepares to one day take the throne following his grandfather and father.

"There’s lots of things to think about with that," William noted on an October episode of The Reluctant Traveler With Eugene Levy. "But obviously, I want to create a world in which my son is proud of what we do and a world and a job that actually does impact people’s lives for the better.”
And much of that desire comes from what he and brother Prince Harry experienced during their childhoods, adding, "That is caveated with I hope we don’t go back to some of the practices in the past that Harry and I had to grow up in. And I’ll do everything I can to make sure we don’t regress in that situation."
