Prince George 'a bit of a rascal'

The Duke of Cambridge has described his new son as a "little bit of a rascal".

In his first interview since the birth of Prince George on July 22, William said he and Kate were enjoying their new role as parents.

The Duke told CNN: "He's a little bit of a rascal, I'll put it that way. He either reminds me of my brother or me when I was younger, I'm not sure, but he's doing very well at the moment."

William described George as a "little fighter".

"He kind of, he wriggles around quite a lot," he said. "And he doesn't want to go to sleep that much, which is a little bit of a problem."

The Duke admitted he does not get up in the night to see to the baby as much as Kate, adding that she is doing a "fantastic job".

William said he believes fatherhood has changed him already.

"I think the last few weeks for me have been just a very different emotional experience," he said. "Something I never thought I would feel myself. And I find, again it's only been a short period, but a lot of things affect me differently now. "

Asked about the moment he and Kate brought George out of St Mary's Hospital in Paddington, central London, for the first time, William said they were "happy to show him off to whoever wanted to see him".

"I think I was on such a high anyway," he said. "As any new parent knows, you're only too happy to show off your new child and, you know, proclaim that he is the best-looking or the best everything.
