Other days he’s a pilot. A helicopter pilot obviously. Or quasi … from the Octonauts …,” he said. . “But what I remind him of is that no matter what you want to be when you grow up, it’s your character that matters most. And nothing would make his mom and me more proud than to see him have the character of what we see in front of us: YOU. “ The Duke and Duchess made their first appearance yesterday at the Games in The Hague, the Netherlands, where they attended a reception accompanied by the country’s organizing team. They also attended the first medal event of the races, an off-road driving challenge, on Saturday morning.
