During the family’s sailing holiday on a superyacht last month, the future king’s eldest son reportedly had a specific dietary request from a particular restaurant on a Greek island. This very particular request was made as the royals left Kefalonia and were sailing south towards Zakynthos, before making a stop in the middle of the Ionian Sea.

One of the tender boats was dispatched on a mission to pick up a meal possibly from a famous fast food restaurant for the young prince. It comes after Princess Charlotte sparks frenzy with behind-the-scenes photos from the Lionesses’ win.

A member of the superyacht crew was reportedly dispatched out for a “specific dietary item” not available on the superyacht. A tight-lipped source revealed why one of the tender heads travelled back to the mainland, according to the MailOnline.

They said: “George required a specific dietary item which led to the tender going ashore in Zakynthos to purchase it. Nothing extravagant, just something particular.”

This source did not reveal exactly what was picked up for the prince but Zakynthos is one of the few Greek islands to have a McDonald’s on the mainland. The young royal could have ditched the luxury meals on the superyacht for a Big Mac or chicken nuggets and fries.

While it is not clear what Prince George’s specific request was, some of the royals have been known to enjoy some fast food favourites most people also dig into. Princess Diana was known to sometimes give Prince William and Prince Harry KFC and burgers when they were growing up.

Some of Prince George’s favourite meals have been revealed in the past, as celebrity chef Aldo Zilli let slip what the young royal’s top dinner picks were after a chat with dad Prince William. Zilli shared: “[William’s] amazing – I’m waiting for the call because apparently his little boy’s favourite is spaghetti carbonara, so I’m waiting for the call to go and cook it for him.”

The chef added: “If George has my carbonara, he will never have another one, so I need to go and make it, let’s get the ball rolling, send me to the palace to cook.”

It’s not just spaghetti carbonara that tickles Prince George’s taste buds, the Princess of Wales has said that he and Princess Charlotte enjoy making a ‘cheesy pasta’ together at home, reports the Express.

In February 2019, Princess Kate, 42, visited a school in Enfield, north London, and spoke to Ivy Learning Trust’s chief executive Matthew Kleiner-Mann. He said: “She was telling us how much her children love cooking and how they cook for her.

“They made cheesy pasta the other day. One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in. And they make salads and stuff.”

The Sussexes embarked on their trip to the South American country last year to back projects aimed at safeguarding young people from online harm, arriving hand-in-hand in Bogota to meet Vice President Francia Márquez and her husband, Rafael Yerney Pinillo.

After their first engagement in the nation’s capital, Harry and Meghan were seen on camera holding hands as they left the Vice President’s office, where a lip-reader captured a quick but simple demand being exchanged by the royal couple. It’s not the first time a lip-reader has witnessed an unexpected exchange between the two, as Harry was seen “mansplaining” to Meghan on the Palace balcony .

According to professional lip reader Nicola Hickling, Meghan quietly muttered an order to Harry, saying simply, “hand”, before he replied, “Here you go.”

Harry and Meghan were invited to Colombia by Vice President Marquez, who led a press conference ahead of their arrival, where she revealed she was moved to invite Harry and Meghan to the country after watching their Netflix documentary series, where they spoke freely about their turbulent time as working members of the royal family.

Vice President Marquez explained: “I saw the Netflix series about their life, their story and that moved me and motivated me to say that this is a woman who deserves to come to our country and tell her story and her exchange will undoubtedly be an empowerment to so many women in the world.”
