Prince William was left blushing by a flirtatious 96-year-old great-grandmother.
The Duke of Cambridge paid a visit to Queen s Bay Lodge care home in Edinburgh on Sunday (23.05.21) and caught the eye of an elderly female admirer, who was desperate for a kiss off from the 38-year-old royal.
William sat down with Betty Magee in a marquee in the grounds of the facility and she said: Itâs customary in these parts to give a lady a kiss on the cheek.

The prince replied: Oh you are sweet. Youâll make me blush.
And when Betty persisted in asking for a kiss, William laughed and covered his face, before promising to return when coronavirus guidelines are eased and physical contact is permitted again.

The Duke of Cambridge enjoyed ice cream and flirtations with a nonagenarian during a visit to Queens Bay Lodge in Edinburgh on Sunday afternoon.
The Prince, who is visiting Scotland this week to coincide with his appointment as Lord High Commissioner of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, was visiting with care home residents and their families supported by the Church of Scotland’s Social Care Council, Crossreach.
William first met with 96-year-old Betty Magee and her great-granddaughter Kimberly. Upon meeting him, she told William: “It’s customary in these parts to give a lady a kiss on the cheek.”
