Prince William seen dancing for his birthday with friends but Kate Middleton is not there

Prince William was king of the dance floor after his birthday with his mates including Prince Louis’ godfather, but his wife Princess Catherine stayed home.

Prince William caught dancing up a storm

It’s been a busy week since Prince William turned 41 on June 21.

The royal was seen dancing at a nightclub to celebrate his birthday but his other half, Kate Middleton, was nowhere to be seen.

Prince William was seen showing off his best moves at a British nightclub last Friday — with Kate Middleton nowhere in sight.

In video obtained by the Daily Mail, the Prince of Wales was filmed partying at KOKO in a private booth withsome male pals, including his bestie Guy Pelly, who is Prince Louis’ godfather.

Prince William had attended Royal Ascot alongside wife Kate Middleton where the Princess of Wales, 41, looked as radiant as ever in a red Alexander McQueen dress.

But after dark the future king of England headed to KOKO nightclub in Camden, London.

The footage showed the Prince of Wales dressed in an open necked pale blue shirt, holding a drink and smiling and dancing to electronic music with friends in the private box.

Sources say the heir to the throne was joined by a third man, also in a blue shirt, thought to be James Meade, Princess Charlotte’s godfather and a good friend of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The night out seems to have been in celebration of the royal’s 41st birthday, which was two days prior.

The last time Prince William was seen dancing was at the coronation concert, where he joked to a fan that “dancing sober is always a bad idea.”

During the live television broadcast of the coronation concert, the Prince of Wales was shown dancing alongside Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Kate Middleton while Take That, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie performed.

The future King has a taste for nightlife occasionally, and was also seen dancing in 2017 inside the Farinet nightclub in Verbier during a blokey skiing trip to Switzerland, which he attended with nightclub owner Guy Pelly. Controversially, Pelly was one of the friends photographed with Prince Harry when he dressed up in a Nazi soldier in 2005.

Prince William has also been photographed out partying with Kate Middleton in 2006.

And footage of him dancing during a visit to Tuvalu in 2012 went viral.

The royal’s night out letting off some steam comes after he started a 48-hour tour of the UK to launch his project aimed at ending homelessness.

His initiative, called Homewards, seeks to make “rough sleeping, sofa surfing and other forms of temporary accommodation a thing of the past” particularly in London and Dorset.

Prince William and former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell were seen during the visit to Maindee Primary School for Homewards in Newport, in London, where the royal was visiting various charities as part of the five-year program aimed at demonstrating the possibility of ending homelessness. He is currently on a 2 day tour of the United Kingdom, visiting charities working to prevent homelessness in England, Scotland and Wales.

It is unknown what the Princess of Wales did to commemorate her husband’s birthday but she was most recently seen officially opening The Young V&A at the V&A Museum Of Childhood in London.
