Relaxed Prince William jokes ‘my wife is the arty one’ as he brushes off Princess Kate’s photo editing saga
PRINCE William has joked his "wife is the arty one" as he brushes off Princess Kate's photo editing saga.
The Prince of Wales was mocking his artistic skills while decorating biscuits at a youth centre in London.
While chatting to kids at the event and struggling with the icing, bashful Wills admitted: "My wife is the arty one. Even my children are artier than me."
Cheery Prince William sat down with the kids and asked them about their mobile phone usage as he brushed off the saga surrounding his wife Princess Kate's Mother's Day picture.
West is a new £12 million centre providing a wealth of facilities for 8-18-year-olds, and quizzed children about their phone habits.
The comments come on the back of Kate issuing an apology and admitting to editing her Mother's Day photo that was released on Sunday.
Sitting down with a group working on a mental health project, he asked: "How much time do you spend on your phone a day?" adding with a laugh, "We can all be honest about this."
When one teenage girl said 15 hours, he replied: "Fifteen hours, that's quite a lot - I bet you feel better coming here."
West, which stands for Where Everyone Sticks Together, was named by the youngsters who use the Shepherd's Bush facility.
It officially opens in April.
William appeared keen to see all aspects of West which is the 15th facility established by OnSide, a national youth centre charity.
The future King brought up the issue of mobile phone use again after he washed his hands, put on an apron and spread icing on a biscuit before decorating it.
He said: "Grown-ups are guilty of it too ... we got to be better on our phones too - we spend ages on our phones."
