Prince William asked nurse for advice


Prince William asked a nurse for advice on how to get Prince George to behave.
Sue Jones, a nurse who works for Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board, was presented an MBE by Prince William as part of the Queen's Birthday Honours List in June.
She has now revealed that the royal - who is currently expecting a second child with his wife Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge - asked for some advice on how to tame his son, Prince George.
Speaking to the South Wales Evening Post, Sue said: "I went to Windsor Castle to receive it from Prince William. Ii was delighted. He was so lovely.
"We had a good chat. He asked me about my work and even said, 'Perhaps you could give me some advice about getting my young son to do what he should do.
"I told him to treasure ever moment because he won't be a baby for very long."
Sue was being honoured in recognition of her work during the 2013 measles outbreak. The nurse organised an MMR vaccination programme for various schools in the Swansea and Neath Port Talbot areas, protecting hundreds of children from the virus.
With regard to her MBE, Sue added: "It was a real honour for me. I'm still shell-shocked. I was thrilled to have been nominated but to get it was absolutely fantastic."

The newspaper also revealed that Kate - who has cancelled several scheduled appearances since the news was made public -will be returning to her royal duties later this month, when she and her husband Prince William will welcome the Singaporean President Tony Tan to Britain on October 21.

Prince Harry ‘so sad’ to hear of young cancer sufferer’s death


Britain's Prince Harry is "so sad" to hear a young boy has died from cancer weeks after meeting him.
The 30-year-old Royal met seven-year-old Laughlin Whitely at the WellChild Awards ceremony three weeks ago where he was presented with the Most Inspirational Child Award and has now said that his thoughts are with his family after his passing.
Revealing Laughlin - who was nicknamed Lockey - had passed away, his family wrote on Twitter on Saturday (11.10.14) night: "When Laughlin is feeling a bit puffed, he always says, 'Just let me take my breath'. He took his last tonight at 6.30."
They later added: "Lockey is now surrounded by all those he loves, and all the things he loves.
"He knew that as he slowly, slowly drifted off...Last night he told us, each of us, that he loved us & gave us a hug. (sic)"
Laughlin, from Essex in South East England, overcame a brain tumour at just four-year-old before tragically being diagnosed with leukaemia at the beginning of this year and suffering a relapse more recently.

According to the Daily Mirror newspaper, Prince Harry was "so sad to hear the news" that Laughlin had passed away and said that his thoughts were with the brave youngster's family.
