Nick Kyrgios Dropped An F-Bomb Right In Front Of The Royal Box, Prince George's Reaction Was Gold

Fans joked about seeing William or Kate lean over to cover the young lad's ears every time Kyrgios lost a point.

Looks like Prince George has learned a few extra naughty words he can show off to his mates in school.

The future king was subject to some rather colourful language when Aussie tennis star Nick Kyrgios dropped the F-word during the Wimbledon final.

Eight-year-old George had the best seat in the house at Centre Court, perched up in the royal box alongside the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

And it was box office entertainment with Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic producing a brilliant game of tennis which saw the Australian fall agonisingly short of clinching his first ever grand slam title.

But throughout the clash, Kyrgios was growing frustrated and appeared to use the F-bomb as he shouted into the crowd.

His words were picked up by the on-court microphones, prompting the BBC commentator to say: “Apologies for the language, it’s live sport, it’s tense.”

While American sports broadcaster Chris Fowler added: “Not sure Prince George sees a lot of behaviour like this around the palace on a routine basis.”

It was hard to make out exactly what he was yelling, but he seemed to be aiming it at his entourage of friends and family.

“Just say something,” Kyrgios said. 

“Do you f**king care at all?”




With young George sitting within earshot, you wouldn't be surprised if you saw William or Kate lean over and cover his ears during one of Kyrgios' meltdowns.

They didn't, of course, but fans on social media had a field day at the thought of the eight-year-old asking his parents later on about some of the new words he learned throughout the day.
