The Cambridge and Sussex Babies Are Always on Charles's Mind

There was high praise throughout the show for the prince's work in reducing plastic waste, and it's clear that his interest in the environment has only gotten deeper since he became a grandfather. Just days before the programme aired, Prince Charles spoke of his concerns about the world his grandchildren will grow up in while on tour in Ghana, saying "I am about to have another grandchild . . . it does seem to me insanity if we are going to bequeath this completely polluted, damaged, and destroyed world to them."

During the programme we also saw an arboretum that Charles planted for George soon after his birth, and the prince has spoken before about getting his grandchildren interested in gardening and the environment. Sharing his keenest interests with them shows just what a sweet grandfather Charles really is.
