Duchess Kate and Prince William’s Best Quotes About Parenthood Read article

During an episode of “That Peter Crouch Podcast” on Wednesday, July 29, William, 38, opened up about his devoted love for the U.K.’s Premier League soccer clubs. After admitting that he doesn’t have control of the social media accounts that represent him and Duchess Kate, he revealed one instance that forced him to bend the royal rules.

“They deliberately keep me away from [Twitter],” the prince teased. “But when Liverpool did that amazing game [against Barcelona], I went mental. I grabbed the Twitter thing and I just posted it.”

The tweet in question was posted in May 2019 and signed with a “W.” At the time, the Duke of Cambridge congratulated the team on their impressive win. “Well done Liverpool – an incredible result, what a comeback!” he wrote.

A year later, William still isn’t over the team’s all-star performance. “It was an amazing match. I was literally blown away by it,” he said on the podcast. “It was one of the best games of football I’ve ever seen. And I got completely out of control and I just went, ‘Tweet that, get it out. Give it here!'”

“I did get my wife a pair of binoculars once,” William recalled. “She’s never let me forget that. … I wrapped them. They were really nice. I was trying to convince myself about it. I was like, ‘But these are really amazing, look how far you can see!'”

Despite his best efforts, the duchess wasn’t impressed. “She was looking at me going, ‘They’re binoculars, what’s going on?’ It didn’t go well,” he joked. “Honestly, I have no idea why I bought her a pair of binoculars.”

The royal couple now share three children: Prince George, 7, Princess Charlotte, 5, and Prince Louis, 2. While William is “trying not to persuade” his little ones’ interests, he has high hopes for one of them to become a professional soccer star someday — especially George.

“I reckon he could be [Aston Villa’s] all-time leading goal scorer,” he said on the podcast. “I can see no reason why not. It would be brilliant.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines.

And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
