Prince William proved it this week when footage of him strutting his stuff at a club in Switzerland went viral – to stifled laughter around the globe.

There was also tut-tutting from the Palace as it was revealed that a sexy model had performed a “slut drop” in front of him.

Mohammed says: “The number one rule of dad dancing is to do it in time with the music. The next is to execute small steps. William does a very good job of these.
“But he breaks the third rule which is to not make any large arm movements unless you’re in a group. He actually isn’t so bad.”
Here, Mohammed gets me dad dancing like a king, while pole dance teacher Louise Hawthorne, 35, reveals the art of slut dropping like a royal flunkie . . .
