There's no denying how close the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are with his cousin's children; they are often seen out together during various family occasions.

Her Majesty took centre stage on the iconic balcony, standing alongside her heirs; Prince Charles, Prince William and great-grandchild Prince George as well as the Duchess of Cornwall, Kate, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
