It has been revealed by Prince William this week that his youngest child Prince Louis has been learning to play the drums, though he made a teasing remark about his son.
Prince William, 42, spoke about his family whilst at the Tusk Conservation Awards in London on Wednesday. He's the royal patron of the charity Tusk, which annually honours conservation efforts in Africa with the awards ceremony.
He was joined at the Savoy Hotel by the likes of the Rolling Stones member Ronnie Wood and Dire Straits guitarist Mark Knopfler, whom he met at a reception ahead of the ceremony. Prince William said there was "a lot of creativity" present and joked that they had enough to start a band.

Prince William went on to discuss his son Prince Louis, six - who is the youngest of his three children with Princess Kate - nurturing a potential musical talent himself. Teasing over it, Prince William said: "My youngest is learning the drums that's why I spend my entire life with my fingers in my ears."
As previously reported, in his speech at the ceremony, Prince William warned that the event is a "reminder that our planet continues to face terrifying environmental concerns". He hailed the winners on the evening for reminding "us of the importance of living at peace with nature".
Prince William also mentioned his children, sharing a vision for the future that he wants Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis to inherit. He said: "I want my children to live in a world where swallows still migrate, gorillas still live in the cloud forests of Uganda and rhinos still roam the arid rangelands of Namibia."
He also said: "It is only through a collaborative approach, under the guidance of indigenous and local communities, that we can foster lasting and meaningful change. I believe we are the lucky ones. We live in a world in which incredible wildlife exists and I want that for the generations that follow."
Speaking at the event on Wednesday night, King Charles III 's eldest son said that now was the time to support those working to protect wildlife and the environment. Addressing guests at the awards ceremony, he said: "Rainforests the size of countries are disappearing. And one million species are at risk of extinction mostly due to human activity."
Prince William continued with a further message for those listening to his speech. He added at the event: "Now is the time to support those globally that work to prevent future generations from becoming disconnected from nature, we must invest in the natural world around us and understand the value it has for us all, both now and in the future."
