As the Duke and Duchess meet performers in Galway on Thursday, they revealed that their two children have their own hobbies as well. Prince William and Kate Middleton said that their son Prince George, six, is learning to play guitar and that their daughter Princess Charlotte, four, is more into gymnastics.

The Cambridge royals disclosed their kids' hobbies during a special event at Tribeton for Galway 2020, the host of the European Capital of Culture for Ireland. 

According to BBC, Kate Middleton and Prince William spoke about George and Charlotte's hobbies after partaking in some sports themselves at a Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) club in Galway, Ireland. 

William and Kate got to watch a performance by the band NØÖV while they were there and afterwards Middleton told the group:

 "When did you all start playing? It has been so interesting hearing all the storytelling over the last couple of days. I wish we could have brought George and Charlotte along, they would have loved it. And George is starting to learn the guitar."

The Duke and Duchess also watched a demonstration as a pair of tightrope walkers did a routine on a balancing beam. Kate Middleton said:

"Charlotte is really into gymnastics, she's doing cartwheels, handstands, everything. It's so good for their basic skills of balance and coordination."

Prince William added:

"And their flexibility, it's really good for their long-term health, isn't it? We went to watch the Cirque du Soleil recently, it was amazing."

Prince William even got to show off some of his own juggling skills during the event. However, after trying to "up the stakes" with a fourth ball, William lost his perfect juggle with the addition. A juggler from the Galway Community Circus, Juggler Tony Mahon, 31, said he was "very impressed with William's skills"

He added:

"He really exceeded my expectations.  Even trying four balls–that’s next level stuff!"

Kate and William later made an appearance at a traditional Irish pub after the sporting event. Outside of the pub Tig Coili, on King Street, the Cambridge couple met with crowds and talked to the people that were gathered there.

After their three-day tour of Ireland, Prince William and Kate Middleton are expected to be reunited with their talented children Prince George and Princess Charolette.
