Prince William’s Awkward Princess Kate Question Goes Viral [Video]

The moment Prince William was confronted with an awkward question about Princess Kate has gone viral after footage from a palace photo call given to mark the announcement of the couple’s engagement resurfaced on social media site TikTok.

The early formation of William and Kate’s relationship became the subject of increased public fascination in 2023 after it was dramatized in the final season of Netflix‘s hit royal drama The Crown.

The couple met in 2001 during their first year studying at St Andrew’s University in Scotland. They both took the art history degree course, with William eventually switching to take geography.

Soon after meeting they began dating, and in 2004 their relationship became public after photos of the couple skiing were published by the British press. Kate became William’s established long-term girlfriend and after a brief separation in 2007 they headed towards marriage.
