While there are many ways the members of the British Royal family are unlike the rest of us, the Princess of Wales proved that there may be more similarities than it may seem.
During a visit to Bute in Scotland, while on a royal walkabout, the future Queen took no notice of William's request to hurry her along the line of royal fans waiting to greet them.
In a video shared by Kings Guard Tours, William jokingly told Kate, while tapping on his watch: "You've got to speed up, you’ve got to get all the way down there before you go."
"William’s face says it all! He knows the people love Catherine as much as they loved his mother," one fan replied.
"Adorable and such easy, genuine playfulness between them," a second added. Meanwhile, a third penned: "I love that William just watched her with a big grin on his face. He loves that she is loved."
Giggles in Scotland
This wasn't the first interaction from their time in Scotland that delighted royal fans.
During the same walkabout, the future King was left blushing after he was told by one royal fan he was "fit" while visiting Scotland.
According to the Daily Mail, one member of the crowd during their visit to the Isle of Bute said to the future King: "You're fit!"

William is in Scotland with his wife, the Princess of Wales, and travelled to Bute to celebrate the island's community spirit and volunteering ethos after a war of words broke out over a controversial Diana, Princess of Wales memoir.
The couple visited Bute Shinty Club and watched an under-17s match from the side-lines alongside locals, and they seemed impressed with the skills on display.

William fluffed his first shot, with the ball moving just a few inches, before making solid contact to cheers from the spectators.
Kate fared little better at the start, swinging and missing, but her next shot was cheered by the crowds as it flew at the goalie.
William and Kate's recent outing comes amid a public royal dispute between the King and Earl Spencer, William's uncle, who has made a number of bombshell claims in his upcoming memoir, Swan Song: My sister, Diana.
