Both the princes had quite a healthy palate when they were children.

Prince William and Prince Harry may have been estranged in the past few years however the royal brothers seem to be united on at least the food front on multiple occasions.

As members of the Royal Family, the two princes enjoyed a privileged life from when they were very young, however on multiple occasions they were just like the rest of us.

According to chef Darren McGrady, who was a royal chef to Queen Elizabeth II, Diana, Princess of Wales and William and Harry for 15 years, the princes used to enjoy very traditional and ordinary meals.

Darren explained that Harry and William both enjoyed “traditional, English food” and he also revealed their favourite meals as well as their favourite fruit.

He told PEOPLE: “I remember holding the boys as babies, when the Princess [Diana] was eating cereal in the kitchen, thinking, ‘Wow, here I am, literally holding the crown jewels’.”

The chef added that the princes were especially keen on cottage pie and peas, poached chicken and rice and fish cakes.

He explained: “They may be royal children, but they still have children’s palates.

“[They had] everything a normal British child would have. The only difference is that they had a chef cooking it for them.”

In another interview with HELLO!, McGrady revealed that William and Harry were big fans of bananas as it was their favourite fruit.

He said: “They liked comfort food dishes. They loved banana flan, anything with banana really, banana ice cream.

“They loved things like mixed grills, burgers, pizza, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken and cream chicken sauce…”

The two brothers are also united over their favourite fast food option.

Both Harry and William are also said to enjoy a cheeky Nandos occasionally.
