The Prince and Princess of Wales had different hobbies at St. Andrews
Princess Kate and Prince William famously met while studying at St. Andrews University in Scotland, and while you might imagine they were inseparable during the early years of their relationship, comments from the Princess of Wales this week reveal this wasn't the case."I remember university for me was one of those great opportunities to try out new hobbies, and that has carried through now. I loved trying out new things, and challenging myself, whether sports, music, or art.
"I also tried out the photography club at university, which was great and I met totally new friends, and that’s something I continue to love and enjoy now," Princess Kate continued.While Prince William was equally active at university, tennis and hockey weren't clubs he was a member of. Theand was even captain of St. Andrews' team with his brother Prince Harry gently ribbing him for his water polo penchant in his speech at Prince William and Princess Kate's wedding.
Sadly, his team lost 14-7, but not through any fault of William's, with Welsh captain Oliver Newcombe saying the future King "gave as good as he got. We didn't single him out for any special treatment. Water polo is a hard sport to play."Princess Kate added in her chat at Nottingham Trent that she encourages her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, to follow in her experimental footsteps.
“It’s one of the things with my kids too, just trying out new things, and university for me was when I learned to try out because there is so much on offer," she said.Her three children are certainly adventurous when it comes to their hobbies. George and Louis reportedly both love rugby, football and tennis, while Charlotte enjoys ballet and gymnastics.
