Kate Middleton proved her salt as a mum today when she helped 10-year-old Craig Skipper on her outing to Coventry.
The boy had waited three hours to see the Royals and had started to feel unwell, the Evening Standard reports.
The Duchess of Cambridge noticed that he was feeling sick, so she had her police bodyguards get Craig a sick bag.
"Kate came over and give him a sick bag, our little Craig," said Carole Flynn, a learning mentor at the boy's school, People reports.
"I think he was a little bit overcome," Carole explained.

She described Kate's simple act of kindness to the Evening Standard.
"He went quite pale. She came over to speak to him and noticed he was not very well. She asked if he was OK. She bent down, and was concerned," Carole noted.
How touching! It's heartwarming to see the concern the expecting mum has for others.
Carole said admiringly, "It was lovely of her. She really took time with him. You can tell she is a mum, and has got that caring side."
Thank you Coventry for a wonderful visit!

Thankfully, Craig didn't get sick, but we're glad Kate came to his rescue.
Prince William also showed off his parental chops on the outing, ordering a hot chocolate for a little girl who was crying because she wanted the drink so badly.
The dad asked her if he should order a hot chocolate, and she agreed it would be a good move.
"With lots of cream," the little one told him.
William's even sweeter than we thought.
