Prince George is seemingly not used to react in public as he reaches his pre teens.

The future King and second in line to the British Royal throne, Prince George, was recently spotted confused and awkward during a public interaction on Christmas morning 2025.

Speaking about George’s reaction to a fan comparing him with Princess Diana, former Royal Butler Grant Harold told Hello! magazine

“George is a little bit reticent about [royal superfans],” Jobson added. “When she put her hand on his back, I think that's natural. There's no training. They learn by observation.”

Meanwhile George’s younger sister, princess Charlotte, is much more well worth with public interactions.

Emily Nash, Hello!'s royal editor, says that Princess Charlotte has more confidence.

“Even as a little girl visiting a newborn Prince Louis for the first time, she had a ready wave," she said. “Her parents are introducing their children to the spotlight in a careful and controlled way, and she seems to be taking these occasional forays into public life in her stride so far.”
