Prince William might have a cool and calm composure now, but just like his son Prince Louis, he did throw tantrums as a child – and one of them was caught on camera!

In an unearthed video, William was seen sulking when his mother, Princess Diana, ended playtime and told him it was time to go in from the garden at Kensington Palace. The Duke glared at his mother and stood firmly rooted to the spot, but his mother knew exactly how to handle it. Diana can be heard using reverse psychology, and she said: "All right Harry will have all the fun then," as she turned and walked away with a young Prince Harry in her arms.

"NO no no," yelled William back at her as he ran by his mother's side. Successful parenting at its finest!

The video was shared on TikTok by fan account @1ladyydianawales and as well as this funny clip, the account showcases lots of other lovely footage of Princess Diana, including the Princess on her wedding day and more private moments with her two boys.

Royal fans may remember how Prince Louis dominated headlines during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations back in June when his cheeky behaviour in the royal box was caught on camera. 

Just like a young Prince William was prone to tantrums, four-year-old Prince Louis' playful antics proved challenging for the Princess of Wales, who tried her best to tame her youngest son's mischievous actions - like father, like son!

The brothers keep their mum's memory alive 

Asked whether he tells his kids, especially Archie, about his late mother, Harry told Hoda: "Yes, very much so. I don't tell him all the stuff that's happened, but certainly that this is Grandma Diana, and we've got a couple of photos up in the house."
