Prince William’s parenting confession

Prince William has opened up about the realities of parenthood, revealing that even though he’s a royal he still suffers from what every new parent goes through: sleep deprivation.

The father of Prince George, four, and Princess Charlotte, two, made the confession as he chatted to fellow attendees at the Wales v Australia rugby game in Cardiff on Saturday.

"I do need toothpicks to keep my eyes open because of the kids," he said before launching into a discussion about the match.

But there won’t be much sleep time on the cards next year with Duchess Catherine expected to have her third child in April.

The couple have not yet confirmed the baby's exact due date but Prince William has previously opened up about the impending arrival.

"It's very good news," he said recently at a National Mental Health and Policing Conference in Oxford, England

"We need Catherine to get over this first bit and then we can start celebrating. It's always a bit anxious to start with, but she's well."

Congratulations again to the soon-to-be family-of-five!
