George and Louis share one thing in common - but their favourites are different

Prince William has revealed that his two sons, Prince George and Prince Louis don't agree on everything.

While the pair reportedly get along with each other, often being pictured laughing together in royal photos, it turns out they don't have everything in common. Back in November, while speaking backstage at the Earthshot Prize awards, the Prince of Wales told band OneRepublic that 10-year-old George is still a massive fan of ACDC.

This is quite a contrast to Prince Louis. The Wales' youngest child likes softer tunes and favours six-piece American stars OneRepublic, who played hits including Counting Stars and I Ain't Worried at the climate event.

The Prince of Wales told the band after their performance: "I can’t thank you enough. You were amazing. What a way to start the show. That was incredible. Louis, my youngest, loves your songs,"

He said Prince George is still into rock music. He had revealed during the summer that his oldest son loves the veteran Australian rockers ACDC, as well as British legends Led Zeppelin.

Unfortunately for George, he reportedly couldn’t make the event due to his first major school tests – thought to be entrance exams for his future education. It meant William went through the four-day solo trip to Singapore on his own as Kate remained in England to support their eldest child with his exams.

At the event, William told the band Bastille, who also performed, that their rendition of Pompeii to close the show – about the natural disaster that destroyed the city when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79AD – had a notable impact on the audience members around him.

He gushed: "You guys blew it away. Honestly, it was incredibly moving, it was very powerful and I didn't want it to stop. And everyone in front of me was crying. I mean, I didn't see behind me but there were tears everywhere. It was so powerful and a great way to finish the show. So thank you so much."
