Prince George asks Santa for a police car for Christmas: Duke of Cambridge reveals George's Christmas wish-list containing just one item

1/4

All Prince George wants for Christmas is a police car, his father revealed today.

The Duke of Cambridge delivered his four-year-old son’s Christmas Wish List to Santa Claus in person during an official visit to Finland.

The list is signed in bold letters by Prince George himself - the first time the young royal's handwriting has been shown to the public.

The prince also insisted he had been “nice” this year and deserved presents, circling the option at the top of the printed missive to Santa, who opened the letter immediately at Esplanade Park’s Christmas market in Helsinki.

Despite having the option to ask for five presents from Father Christmas, in a developed, part-capitalised hand, Prince George wrote only “police car” on one line.

Prince William enjoyed the traditional traditional festive market in the centre of the Scandinavian city during the second day of his first official visit to the country, which is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its independence.

The visit comes just days after the announcement that Prince Harry is to marry Meghan Markle in St George’s Chapel at Windsor castle in May next year.

Prince George, who was a pageboy at the wedding of the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister, Pippa Middleton, is expected to perform the same duties at the upcoming royal nuptials, alongside his two-year-old sister.

Prince William revealed last year that he caught George unwrapping his gifts a week before Christmas Day.

In previous years, the couple have broken with tradition and spend Christmas with the Middletons.

But this year, George and his sister Charlotte, two, are believed to be joining in the royal family’s Christmas celebrations at Sandringham.

The Duke of Cambridge met Santa on the second day of a two-day visit to Finland, where he was due to meet former US vice president Al Gore at global tech festival Slush.

He went on to visit a comprehensive school, to see the ways in which the Finnish education system puts student welfare and mental well-being at the top of its agenda.
