Prince George's favourite food is an Italian staple loved by the masses - and its even sparked a sweet Royal Family hobby with Kate and Charlotte.

Celebrity chef Aldo Zilli revealed that the young prince is quite fond of the Mediterranean classic, spaghetti carbonara. The Italian born chef, 68, from Surrey, is an ambassador for the youth homeless charity Centrepoint, where he has had a few run-ins with Prince William, 41, who is patron of the organisation.

Speaking to Femail, Aldo told how his chats with the Duke of Cambridge over the years allowed him to learn more about the three young royals - Princess Charlotte, 8, Prince Louis, 5, and 10-year-old Prince George. Aldo said William talked animatedly about his children, and at one point revealed Prince George's favourite meal.

He said: "[William's] amazing - I'm waiting for the call because apparently his little boy's favourite is spaghetti carbonara, so I'm waiting for the call to go and cook it for him.

"[William] is an absolute gent. He'll come over to you, speak to you about - he knows everything about everyone. That's what I like about people like that, before they come over to you they make sure they know who you are and what you do for a living, it's a very intelligent thing to do.

"He's such a great, great guy, I'm a big fan of the Royal Family." Aldo added: "If George has my carbonara, he will never have another one, so I need to go and make it, let's get the ball rolling, send me to the palace to cook!"

While Prince George's top dish may be spaghetti carbonara, he also appears to be a big fan other variations of pasta, as Kate Middleton previously revealed that George and sister Princess Charlotte helped her cook a "cheesy pasta" at home.

It was recently claimed that the Prince and Princess of Wales are particularly conscientious as to how they raise the next King - by making sure he is not scared by the prospect. Prince George, 10, will be King at some point in his life. Robert Hardman, whose book The Making of a King: King Charles III and the Modern Monarchy is out now, said his mother and father are trying to normalise this process as much as possible.

He told People magazine: "With George, there's a sense that the priority is that he and his siblings are not put off this, that it's not scary, that it's something that they understand and it’s going to be part of their life. And there’s a belief to make it as unobtrusive and as normal — if you can call it normal — and as pleasant as possible."
