Prince Louis may be fifth in line to the British throne, but in many ways he’s just like every other almost-2-year-old you know.

His parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, opened up about life at home with their kids as they, too, self-isolate amid the coronavirus pandemic in a new video interview with the BBC. “It’s been ups and downs, like a lot of families self-isolating,” Middleton said, laughing.

Like the rest of us, the royals have been keeping in touch using technology. “We’ve been talking to all the family online,” Prince William said. “It’s been a really good way of keeping in touch and seeing each other.” Apparently, Prince Louis always wants in on the action. “It gets a bit hectic, I’m not going to lie, with a 2-year-old,” Middleton said, with Prince William adding, “For some reason, he sees the red button and always wants to press the red button.”

Yep, that sounds like pretty standard toddler behavior while in the vicinity of any electronic device. In other highly relatable royals news, the older members of the family are low-key struggling with the world of video chats and FaceTime. “As you can imagine the younger generation are a little bit more tech-savvy. But only just,” Prince William said, while they both laughed. “I think we’re getting there now, the family are getting a little more used to being able to contact each other and pressing the right buttons and not dropping the computer halfway through.”

The Duchess of Cambridge also revealed that they continued home-schooling for Prince George and Princess Charlotte during the British equivalent of spring break. “But don’t tell the children we’ve actually kept it going through the holidays,” she said. “I feel very mean.”

Your secret’s safe with us, Kate.
