Kate Middleton, at 43 years old, has once again made one of the most intimate confessions about her family. The Princess of Wales has surprised those attending her latest official visit with statements that have hinted at how her son Louis imagines his future. The unexpected revelation took place at the Royal Air Force (RAF) base in Coningsby, a historic site that was inaugurated during World War II.
Since the Princess was diagnosed with cancer, the British royal family have shown a new way of connecting with the public. While it is true that the monarchy has traditionally kept a strict control over their privacy, Kate and William have decided to share more details about their daily life. They have shared anecdotes about their children, revealed likes and hobbies, and have shown a human side that previously seemed impossible in British royalty.
This time, Kate herself has naturally shared what the youngest member of the family wants to do. In a warm tone, she stated: "My son Louis wants to pursue this profession when he grows up." Louis dreams of becoming a fighter pilot. This choice has brought to mind the training that Princess Leonor is receiving at the San Javier Academy.
Kate Middleton has spoken about her son Louis at her latest event
The future Queen of England has impressed those present by participating in a virtual flight simulator during her first visit as honorary royal air commodore. Dressed in an elegant gray plaid suit by Bella Freud, paired with an Alexander McQueen top and Stuart Weitzman heels, the Princess has shown enthusiasm and curiosity. She even confessed that she had never tried a simulator of those characteristics, although she had used others for helicopter pilot training.
In the middle of the demonstration, Kate commented that Louis is passionate about aviation and that he feels "eager" to fly. "I'm going to tell your children that getting this position takes eight years and a lot of hard work," she remarked with a smile. With those words, Kate wanted to emphasize that, although she supports her son's passion, she has also warned him about how demanding it is to become a pilot in the RAF.
Kate Middleton already knows what Prince Louis wants to do
As a symbolic detail, Kate wore an RAF badge on her jacket. The gesture did not go unnoticed by the young cadets she spoke with. They reminded her of the years when Prince William was stationed at the Valley air base.
This way, Kate Middleton has revealed, with her warm and spontaneous style, the future that her son Louis has dreamed of for himself: to soar the skies as a fighter pilot.
