What made the royal yacht stop near Zakynthos during Kate and William's Greek holiday? Everything we know so far

Prince William and Kate Middleton have been spending the summer on a royal yacht with their family along the coastline of Greece. The royals made a pit stop near Zakynthos after they left Kefalonia. They were on their way to the south in the Ionian Sea, heading towards another island, when Prince George came up with a request.

According to the Daily Mail, Prince George wanted something that was not available on the royal yacht. It has not been confirmed what exactly Prince George wanted, but it seems to be something specific. Since the chefs on board had already been informed of the royal family's dietary preferences, and had accordingly made arrangements, a tender boat was sent out after they anchored a few miles away from the Greek islands.

A source said:

"George required a specific dietary item which led to the tender going ashore in Zakynthos to purchase it. Nothing extravagant, just something particular."

This did not stop the locals from assuming that the little prince may have wanted a fast-food meal.

What fast food did locals think Prince George wanted after the royal yacht stopped near Zakynthos?

The chefs on the royal yacht had already been informed of the young royal's likes and dislikes. It is known that Prince George enjoyed spaghetti carbonara. He and his sister, Princess Charlotte, also like eating curry. However, after a tender boat was sent from the superyacht, the locals on the Greek island were joking about the meal Prince George asked for.

There are only a few Greek islands that have McDonald's, which led the people of Zakynthos to wonder if the prince wanted a Happy Meal.

It is a known fact that the late Princess Diana did not mind her sons digging into the occasional burger or KFC bucket but Kate Middleton has never known to be too keen about it for her children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

The royals are yet to confirm the reason why they anchored their royal yacht near Zakynthos.

What kind of boat were the royals on?

According to the Daily Mail, the British royals were traveling the Greek shores starting from July 19. A source claims that they were:

"enjoying the largesse of Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a prominent member of the UAE royal family."

The royal yacht has been identified as the Almax, which is:

"one of the world's first fuel-cell superyachts which is estimated to be worth £40 million... huge milestone in the future of sustainable boating," a source states.

The royal stop near Zakynthos remains mysterious. All we know is that Prince George asked for something that was not on the royal yacht. WHile no one is exactly sure what it was, the locals have been joking that George might have wanted a Happy Meal!
