A 'fierce ability to climb'
Why such a nickname? "Because they were very 'decorative', very fragrant, and had a fierce ability to climb over and over again," explained Soir Mag. In May, the Prince of Wales revealed during the Chelsea Flower Show what nickname he used to address his wife. Namely: 'Babykins', a derivative of 'baby' or 'babe'. The latter is said to be a little more teasing when it comes to Prince William's. Kate Middleton is said to call her husband "baldy" - read, the "bald one". As for Prince George, their eldest son, he is said to be simply nicknamed "PG" (Prince George) by his classmates. CQFD.
