Apparently, the terrible twos have been kind to William and Kate.

Speaking to reporters before a February 26 rugby match between Wales and France, Prince William claimed that his children were well-behaved, though he knows they won't be forever.

"No broken bones so far but they are trying running around and pushing things and jumping," said Prince William. 

"Please tell me it gets easier. Charlotte is very easy, she is sweet. But all the fathers say to me 'just you wait, when they get to nine or eleven they get crazy'."

The Duke of Cambridge stated that he's looking forward to his children growing older, adding, "There will be some drama."

Don't worry too much about it, William. Call us crazy, but we have a good feeling that your children have a more-than-decent future ahead of them.
