During Prince William and Kate Middleton's private reception with BBC Radio One's Teen Hero honorees, a particularly touching fact about the two's oldest son Prince George was casually revealed by William. The prince spoke about how George was already like his late mother, Princess Diana.

William was talking to an honoree who does street dancing. "George is doing dancing as well, he loves it," he said in a video from the event posted by the Palace. "And it's kind of…my mother always used to dance, she loved dancing. And if it's something you love, you do what you love. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. Keep at it." The exchange starts around the 1:02 mark:

George, meanwhile, has already publicly shown his talent. There were photos of him dancing as a page boy at his mother's friend Sophie Carter's wedding in September.
