King Charles admits trying hobby Kate Middleton is 'terrible at' - and he's considering picking it up again

The Princess of Wales has an impressive skillset but even she can't be good at everything and there's one hobby she's "terrible" at that her father-in-law also found difficult to master. King Charles ended up chatting about it to Olympic Gold Medal winning diver Tom Daley at a garden party on Day 1 of his State Visit to the US.

Tom is famously a knitting enthusiast and the King confessed that he tried it once "when he was eight". According to the diver, Charles told him he "wasn't very good" but apparently said "he might pick it back up" and knows it's "very good for mental health".
