Prince William Confirms Princess Charlotte’s New Running Hobby

Princess Charlotte, the 10-year-old daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, has taken up running, focusing on the 400 metres and hurdles, a hobby she shares with her aunt Pippa Middleton, who has been passionate about running since prep school. Prince William revealed her interest during an investiture ceremony with Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson, noting that Charlotte even watched Hodgkinson compete in Paris. Charlotte’s mother, Kate, also enjoys running, while her brother Prince George has shown enthusiasm for running and triathlon events, participating in several triathlons during his time at Lambrook School. Their youngest brother, Prince Louis, prefers rugby and has been described by Kate as being "mad" about the sport. This athletic inclination among the royal children highlights a family tradition of engaging in sports, with Charlotte following a path similar to her aunt Pippa, who described running as a "constant light" in her life since childhood. Meanwhile, Kate Middleton continues to honor Princess Diana’s fashion legacy through her style choices at public events, often drawing direct comparisons to Diana’s iconic looks.
