The five-year-old son of Prince William and Kate Middleton recently received lessons from the current #3 ranked tennis player in the world, Roger Federer.

It is undoubtedly a charmed life for such a young boy. Is this the equivalent of getting singing lessons from Elvis or learning how to dance from Fred Astaire?

Federer and the Middleton family have been friends for quite some time, and he even attended the 2017 wedding of Kate's younger sister Pippa, with his wife Mirka. Hello! reported that they had Federer and Pippa had formed a friendship after meeting at Wimbledon one year.

Federer is currently competing in Wimbledon and is doing well, beating Jay Clarke to make it to the third round, the BBC reported. While he has the pressure of this international competition on his mind, he still makes it to the one-on-one tennis lessons with young George. 

Marie Claire reported that Federer took the time to make it to his friends' place in Berkshire to show George a thing or two. Only his friends just happen to be the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. 

He told members of the press at The Daily Star, that George had "a good swing," and "He’s a cute boy. I love to see they’re into tennis or into sport." George was equally complimentary to the Swiss tennis star, and apparently had been saying that Federer is his favorite player.

What a cute pair to be ambling around the tennis courts together! We would love to watch that unfold on a tennis court in Berkshire.

Do you know a tennis fan who would love to hear this story? You should definitely let them know about the young prince and his famous coach.
