After a busy day of working as members of the royal family, Prince William and Princess Kate are just like the rest of us – sitting down to watch some television. The Prince has often spoken about his love of cinema and box sets in the past – a passion that is made clear in his position as president of the British Academy of Film and Television (BAFTA), reports Woman and Home.
The Prince and Princess have shared what they love watching on TV, with Harry revealing that William and Kate were both huge fans of Suits – which stars their sister-in-law Meghan Markle. Prince William has also revealed that he and his wife both share a keen love for Killing Eve, Downton Abbey and Game of Thrones.
These shows are popular in plenty of UK households with Brits across the country also tuning in to watch the hit dramas. But it’s not only these that the royals enjoy.
According to Hello! Magazine, Prince William met with the stars of Clarkson’s Farm earlier this year and when he was there he revealed that even Prince George is a fan of the show.
The Amazon Prime documentary series follows Jeremy Clarkson and the tales from his farm in the Cotswolds.
Speaking to ITV News, Prince William shared that he asked his son what he should say if he met Kaleb Cooper, one of the show’s stars, to which George replied: “Tell Kaleb to mind his language”.
There’s one show that’s actually about the royals themselves, and it’s one that has gripped Brits since its release – but what do the royal family think of it?
The Crown is a Netflix drama which first premiered in 2016. Vanessa Kirby, who played Princess Margaret in seasons one and two, revealed that the late Queen Elizabeth II herself had watched the series, reports Hello! Magazine.
During an interview with Harper’s Bazaar in 2018, she said: “A friend of mine was at a party and didn’t know anyone, so he sidled up to this group who were talking about The Crown. One girl said, ‘Well, my granny watches it and really likes it’. It slowly dawned on him that the girl was Eugenie and her granny was the Queen.”
Sarah Ferguson and Princess Eugenie have also said they enjoyed the show’s music, storytelling, and cinematography.
