As Prince Louis celebrates his seventh birthday, sources close to the royal family stress the special bond he has with his maternal grandparents, Carole and Michael Middleton.
This friendship has become even closer over the past year, while Princess Kate has undergone treatment for cancer.
The Middletons have been a rock for their daughter and her little family throughout this difficult time.
According to GB News, their regular presence provided comfort and stability in the lives of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Carole Middleton, aged 70, has taken an active role in assisting children with their daily routines, including regular trips to school. With their mother focused on her recuperation, the three young royals frequently spend nights at their grandparents' house, where they enjoy a nurturing atmosphere.
Despite the family's private struggles, Michael and Carole made sure their grandkids felt secure and joyful, from afternoon bike rides and baking to yard games.
For those unfamiliar, Louis' affinity for his grandparents was clear during last year's Westminster Abbey carol concert, where he was spotted clutching a card expressing thanks for the time spent with them.
'Thank you to Granny and Grandpa for playing games with me.'
The carole concert was especially noteworthy for the Wales family, as it was their first public appearance with all three children since Trooping the Colour the previous summer.
