revealed his youngest son is learning the drums, as he met rock stars at the 12th annual Tusk Awards tonight.
He met Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood, 77, and the lead guitarist from rock band Dire Straits Mark Knopfler OBE, 75, at the Savoy Hotel to celebrate the achievements of leading African conservations.
Tusk ambassador Wood, previously sold a gorilla statue to raise funds for Tusk and Knopfler, auctioned his guitars which raised £600,000 for the charity.
William said there ‘is a lot of creativity here’ and joked they had enough to start band.
The prince revealed his youngest son Prince Louis, six, has rock intentions, and said: “My youngest is learning the drums that’s why I spend my entire life with my fingers in my ears.”

Ronnie also told him that the gorilla auctioned for Tusk was given back to him and now sits in his garden. William said to the rock stars, “thank you for your support.”
The Prince of Wales, who has been a long-standing supporter of conservation in Africa, has been patron of Tusk since 2005. It is one of the very first organizations he stood by when he started his public life.
During his appearance, William presented awards for Conservation in Africa, The Tusk Award for Conservation in Africa and the Tusk Wildlife Ranger Award.
Charlie Mayhew, who is the founder of Tusk, previously told PEOPLE that he believes William will eventually introduce his children to Africa and its wildlife soon. He said: “I think it won’t be long before, you know, he will want to introduce them to Africa. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about conservation and the environment.
“He has a particular love for Africa. He has been incredibly supportive as our patron and proactive in supporting us. We find ourselves incredibly lucky.”
