In a delightful radio show appearance alongside his wife Kate Middleton, Prince William found himself in playful banter as he divulged his most frequently used emoji. The charming exchange unfolded during BBC Radio 1’s Going Home show, adding a touch of humor to the royal couple’s public persona.
Host Vick Hope, curious about William’s emoji preferences, posed the question, prompting a cautious response from the future king. William humorously inquired, “Is this a clean thing? Is it a family one?” To which Princess Kate chimed in, “It depends on the group, if it’s the family WhatsApp group.”
Contrary to expectations, Prince William’s favored emoji turned out to be unexpectedly innocent. He shared, “I’ve been told not to pick the aubergine, so I’ve got to pick something else.” Clarifying his choice, he revealed, “It would have been the aubergine, but I’m saying now because I’ve got to be a little grown up that it’s the one with the eyes [that] go up and down, and the mouth.”
The hosts, Jordan and Vick, expressed both surprise and delight at William’s selection, with Jordan exclaiming, “He said the aubergine emoji, this is brilliant.” However, Vick playfully teased the future king, stating, “He knows. He’s got a dirty mind.”
In contrast, Princess Kate opted for a less risqué choice, confessing that her favorite emoji was “the heart with the crying emoji.” She further described it as the “hysterical laughing” emoji often used when things have gone awry.
The royal couple’s candid emoji revelations added a light-hearted touch to the radio show, showcasing their relatable and playful side. This charming disclosure only adds to the ongoing fascination with the royal family’s emoji choices, following the spotlight on Prince Harry’s unconventional preference for the ghost emoji. As Prince William and Kate Middleton continue to share glimpses of their personal lives, their down-to-earth moments resonate with audiences worldwide.
