Prince William reveals his real parenting 'nightmare' - and it's about Charlotte

Lots of parents will relate!

Even though they have a live-in nanny, Prince William and wife Kate Middleton are notoriously hands-on and down to earth when it comes to parenting.

However, despite the ample help and resources available to them, they still struggle with the day-to-day issues involved with raising small children.

They do the school run and more often than not, have their small brood with them when they are out and about, however there’s one task Dad Prince William admits he’s not great at, according to The Sun.

On a recent trip to Blackpool earlier this month, William was chatting to a fellow dad, who admitted that he'd had difficulty learning how to do his daughter's hair.

Apparently, Wills was able to relate to this dilemma wholeheartedly.

“Never try to do a ponytail!” he agreed. “Nightmare.”

The Duchess of Cambridge turned to her husband and was heard asking, “Have you tried to do a plait? It's the weaving... really hard.”

Prince William responded by saying ‘I can do [Princess Charlotte’s] ponytail, but that’s about it as I don't have enough hair to practise on!”

Can’t really argue with that!
