“Someone told me you can do a back flip in a wheelchair,”Prince Williamsaid to her. “How on earth can you do that, and secondly, how do you practice that? How do you get to the point where you think to yourself, ‘Okay, here we go. I’ve got to make it all the way around’?”
Lily said she was simply at the skate park and decided to try it, and William made sure that she was wearing safety gear like a helmet.
