Is Prince George really begging to wear “big boy trousers” at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding? That’s the latest claim coming from one of this week’s tabloids, but Gossip Cop can set the record straight. We’re told it’s “not true.”

According to Star, the young prince is “already quite the negotiator,” and when he was told he’d be “front and center” at Prince Harry and Markle’s royal wedding in May, he supposedly asked if he could wear adult trousers to the event. In terribly unnatural language, a so-called “source” is quoted as telling the publication, “George decreed, ‘I’ll go and do fancy boring stuff if I can wear big boy trousers to the wedding.'” What’s more, the tabloid goes on to assert that the “little prince has been begging to ditch his goofy schoolboy uniform and dress more like his papa.”

But if it wasn’t already obvious, the entire report, which is stuffed with fake quotes, is completely manufactured. A royal source close to the situation tells Gossip Cop the article is 100 percent “not true,” as four-year-old Prince George has no interest in wearing “big boy” pants to Prince Harry and Markle’s wedding. In fact, he’ll probably be dressed in knickers, like most page boys are at royal weddings. Plus, it’s tradition for the younger generation of royals to wear shorts, so Prince George certainly won’t be wearing trousers at his uncle’s wedding.

Oddly enough, this isn’t the first time Gossip Cop has busted an outlet for publishing a strange article about Prince George wearing “big boy” pants. For example, in November we called out the often discredited National Enquirer for falsely claiming Prince George stole and wore Prince William’s pants because he hated wearing “baby shorts.” Three months earlier, we corrected the very same tabloid when it bizarrely alleged Prince George threw a tantrum over having to wear trousers.

In that bogus narrative, the Enquirer ridiculously purported that the four-year-old kept “nagging” his parents to wear long, “grown-up” trousers. But much like this latest report published by Star, the tabloid used quotes that were clearly made-up. The most ridiculous quote claimed that Prince George yelled, “I’m going to be king one day, and a king should not wear goofy shorts!” Evidently, and strangely, a slew of outlets seem to be fixated on the young royal and his clothes.
