PRINCE William is becoming king of the grill — like his late grandfather Prince Philip.
He and wife Kate arrived at Balmoral in the past few days to join the King, Queen and other royals for their traditional annual retreat.

And sources say William is taking on barbecue duties, previously well guarded by Philip until his death in 2021.
Prince Philip was dubbed the “master of the grill”, while the late Queen did the washing up and prepared the salad.
He even had a trailer built to carry barbecue gear around the Scottish estate.
A source said: “William is willingly taking on the role. His kids love barbecues and they have been mixing with all their cousins on the estate.
“He remembers only too well how much Philip loved taking charge.”
King Charles said in a tribute following his father’s death: “He adored barbecuing and he turned that into an interesting art form. And if I ever tried to do it, he’d say, ‘Go away!’”
His Majesty has invited all of his siblings, their children and grandchildren to continue the Queen’s long tradition of hosting at Balmoral in the summer.
Prince Harry and wife Meghan are the only ones not attending.
A source said: “Harry is really missing out.”
