Prince Louis 'Quite a Handful' for Prince William and Carole Middleton as Princess Kate Continues Treatments

Prince Louis maybe a 'national treasure' in Britain, but the rambunctious royal is 'quite a handful' for Prince William and Carole Middleton as Princess Kate battles cancer.

Prince Louis turned six on Tuesday, April 23, and the "national treasure" royal is proving to live up to his reputation for his father, Prince William, and his grandmother, Carole Middleton.

"Queen Camilla told a member of the public last month that Prince Louis can be, and I quote quite a handful," royal correspondent Cameron Walker told GBN.

"I think we have seen that through the public engagements and ceremonial events that have happened with the royal family over the last few years, most notably the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee, where he has a little bit of a tantrum in the royal box during the pageants, and Kate very professionally calmed him down," Walker added.

The expert continued: "He also put his hands over his ears during the royal flypast for that Jubilee service as well. He had a little bit of a go pretending to be a motorbike driver on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during the coronation celebrations. He has been known to have a little bit of a cheeky streak in him. I think the general public loved him for it and royal watchers alike."

In honor of his special day, the Prince and Princess of Wales released an "unedited photo" of His Royal Highness. They captioned the pic with: "Happy 6th Birthday, Prince Louis! Thank you for all the kind wishes today."

Carole has been the driving force keeping the family together with minimum fuss and maximum modesty," a Middleton family friend spilled.

"She’s ferried and fetched George, Louis and Charlotte, taken them to school sports matches, and given them endless support," they added. "She’s come to the rescue, provided reassurance, and has been a rock to Catherine and William as they come to terms with the news."

The source then shared that the former business owner had "been a real Mary Poppins-like figure." The insider then took a swipe at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle by stating: "Her actions are in huge contrast to those mouthing support from afar."

This cheery news also comes after The Royal Observer previously reported on Carole and Michael Middleton's "shame" in trying to hide hundreds of thousands of pounds of their own debt from their sick daughter.

This also follows a report that suggested Carole had adopted a motherly bond with her future king.

"Carole relieved William of such burdens by accepting him for who he was rather than what he was," royal expert Angela Levin dished when discussing the Prince of Wales' need for "normalcy" after a "dysfunctional family background."

"She made him feel secure, comfortable, and protected and he didn't have to worry about what he said or be responsible for her emotions," she added. "Children of broken homes, especially if the parental break up was unpleasant, often don't know how a good relationship works."
