\"There’s a lot of hip movements going along. There's a lot of dressing up,\" explained William. \"Charlotte, particularly, is running around the kitchen in her dresses and ballet stuff and everything. She goes completely crazy with Louis following her around trying to do the same thing.\"

\"It's a really happy moment where the children just enjoy dancing, messing around and singing,\" he said.

William used his episode of \"Time to Walk\" to draw attention to the importance of mental health and using physical activity as a coping tool.

The prince, who has made breaking the stigma of mental health a focus of his work, spoke about how talking with other people helped him get through mental health struggles he faced as an air ambulance pilot early in his career.

He also spoke about his conversations more recently with front-line workers during the coronavirus pandemic, and the importance of mental fitness in addition to physical fitness.

\"There are a number of ways that you can be affected by your circumstances, your environment, your upbringing,\" said William. \"Being through difficult childhoods, broken families, traumatic experiences, whatever they might be, they massively have an impact in later life.\"

\"And we all need to go through a process of understanding why rather than just give in to those feelings and say, 'Listen, it's me. I'm the problem,'\" he said. \"It's not. It really isn't you. And you're not alone, and it's OK. It's about what you do next. It's about having that boldness and that openness and that strength to go, 'It's going to be a long journey. It's not going to be easy, but I'm going to get there.'\"

Apple will stream three special audio airings of Prince William's \"Time to Walk\" episode for free on Apple Music 1 on Monday, Dec. 6.
