On Friday, Prince William traveled to RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire while on official business, where he met with military families.
The Prince of Wales was seen at one point talking to Blake, a young boy sporting a Pudsey Bear headband, before giving him a warm embrace. When Blake, 3, gave the royal a drawing of Mickey Mouse, William promised to “put it on his fridge” when he got home, according to Blake’s mother, Laura.

“He walked off and then Blake decided he wanted to ask William for a cuddle so he followed him and said: “Please William may I have a cuddle,” and he did,” Laura said of her son’s decision to ask the father-of-three for a hug.
During the visit, the heir to the throne was also questioned about his favorite football team and I’m a Celebrity supporter. With relative Mike Tindall and former Lioness Jill Scott currently competing to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, the royal will be overrun with options.
William wore a set of virtual reality goggles during his visit, which were created to facilitate better fighter jet maintenance.
He made the decision not to use an exoskeleton suit, which can assist ground crew with tiresome and repetitive tasks.

While taking a tour of the military facility, William also learned about Project Marshall, a multibillion dollar equipment upgrade program to improve the RAF’s air traffic services throughout Lincolnshire.
A day after his wife traveled alone to Reading to meet with displaced Ukrainian families and learn more about a center’s support of the neighborhood, the Prince paid a solo visit there.
Princess of Wales was impressed with the center’s work and praised its “inspirational work.” The royal family’s social media team posted a video from Kate’s visit to Instagram. The heading stated: “The Reading Ukrainian Community Center’s life-changing work is ongoing and inspirational.
“The center serves the community in many ways, whether it be by offering useful guidance on employment and housing, conducting educational programs for kids, or fostering interpersonal relationships.
