ROYAL fans were delighted as Prince George made his Wimbledon debut this year at Sunday’s Men’s Final.
And supporters were also left in stitches as Prince William, 40, cracked a joke to his eight-year-old son when they were backstage.
The youngster, who looked the part as he donned a posh blue suit, shirt and tie in the blazing sunshine, saw fiery Australian Nick Kyrgios take on Serbia's cool operator Novak Djokovic.
After Djokovic’s victory, the tennis champion let the young royal hold the famous Wimbledon trophy as they chatted.
As George held it by the handles, William joked: “Don’t drop it.”
After looking at the engraved names, George handed the trophy to his mum, saying: “It’s a bit heavy.”
