The Prince of Wales made an adorable comment about his wife.

Prince William celebrated St. Piran’s Day, the county’s national day, in Cornwall today, March 5.

There, he dusted off a title that he doesn’t usually opt for.

Prince William sheds usual title whilst in Cornwall

Prince William spent the day in Cornwall, where he doesn’t go by his Prince of Wales name.

As he visited the South-West of England, Wills went by the title Duke of Cornwall, a name he inherited when his father, King Charles, acceded to the throne in 2022.

Prince William is the head of the Duchy of Cornwall. He rakes in approximately £23 million a year, which funds both his charitable and private expenses and provides for his family.

His visit today saw him highlight the resilience of the area following heavy storms.

A fitting occasion to pay tribute to the area, given it is St. Piran’s Day, the county’s heritage holiday.

The Duke of Cornwall reportedly spent it celebrating the culture of the Cornish people.

Prince William tried to make a pasty

William’s first stop was to an organic farm. There, Wills took part in the pasty-making at an award-winning bakery, famed for Cornwall’s beloved pastries.

Although, it seemed that Wills struggled to get a hang of folding the edges. “It’s a lot harder than it looks!” William said, before adding, “Feels like I might be taking this one home, guys.”

Prince William said that his attempt was not his “finest hour,” before admitting “this is where I need my wife.” He also gushed that Princess Kate would be “all over this”.

William joked that his finished pasty looked like “a funny little crab,” admitting: “Not sure this is going to be sellable”.

Prince William visits Cornwall on special heritage day

In January, the local area was battered by storms.

The weather cut out electricity to 50,000 homes. Meanwhile, 15,000 homes lost their water supply.

Prince William learned that the resilient bakery got through the power shortages by using a newly-installed generator.

The family literally weathered the storm and continued to bake up their precious pastries, which supported local residents in need of essentials.

Prince William also visited the local fire station at Helston, where he thanked emergency workers for their efforts amid Storm Goretti.

The local area endured winds of up to 123 mph. Unsurprisingly, it was one of the most severe storms to hit the region in recent years.

William’s commitment as the Duke of Cornwall

The Duke of Cornwall also sat down for a round table discussion with the emergency workers who battled such severe conditions.

He learned how the crew supported local residents who were impacted by the harsh effects of the storm. Including felled trees.

According to the duchy’s secretary, Will Bax, Prince William is “pretty demanding” in his role as the Duke of Cornwall.

And although he is mostly known as his usual title, the Prince of Wales, it seems he is committed to helping the region.

Bax described William’s approach as “great” and “ambitious”.

“He’s easy to follow because he’s got great conviction and personality, and he really wears his heart on his sleeve in terms of social interest and his desire to have a positive impact in the world,” Bax told The Telegraph last year.
