We've seen Prince George and Princess Charlotte spending time with their grandmother the Queen on several royal engagements, but we don't know as much about the tots' relationship with their other grandmother, Carole Middleton, Kate's mom. However, a new report from Rebecca English, the Daily Mail's royal correspondent, offers sweet new tidbits on their dynamic.
The proud grandmother has brought George, who recently turned 5, and Charlotte, 3, to work with her at Party Pieces, the Middletons' party planning company near their home in Berkshire. The young royal siblings 'play at being shopkeepers' during their visits, the Mail reports.
One time, a visitor spotted George sitting in front of the house as Carole treated him to some candy, according to English. 'Oh my gosh!' the royal tot reportedly exclaimed over the sweets.
It seems Carole is a fan of induglging her grandchildren. She once fed Prince George chips for dinner while babysitting him while his parents were away on royal tour, English writes.
The bonding between grandmother and grandkids continues. Last week, the Cambridges reportedly jetted off to the private Caribbean island of Mustique for a family vacation, and Carole and Michael Middleton came along for the trip.
The number of Middleton grandchildren continues to grow. After Kate and William welcomed Prince Louis in April, Pippa and her husband James Matthews are now expecting their first child together. The mom-to-be is reportedly due in October. It looks like the incoming baby will surely be indulged by his or her doting grandma.
