Proof That Prince William Can Still Make Kate Middleton Laugh Out Loud
After six and a half years of marriage, Prince William still makes Kate Middleton laugh—like, really really hard. The couple recently attended the Royal Variety Show, hosted by English actress and comedian Miranda Hart, where the prince was the source of several moments of comedic gold.
According to Harper’s Bazaar, the first came out when Hart cajoled the prince during the show. The royal responded by shouting out some of her own catchphrases, including “such fun!” The whole display reportedly made the audience—including Kate—seriously LOL.
Then, after a performance from the musical Annie by a group of child actors, Hart encouraged one of the adorable young performers to ask the duke to imitate the trademark “galloping” move from her BBC1 show. After a brief moment of shyness, the prince obliged. Naturally, the sight of a grown man (who is also straight-up royalty) galloping about in a full tuxedo is objectively hilarious. And based on Middleton’s giggling, it’s clear she thought so, too.

The couple, who is expecting their third child in the new year, are constantly cracking each other up, proving that just because they’re royals doesn’t mean they take things too seriously. Kate joked about her pregnancy months before it was a reality (or at least, months before the world knew it was a reality), and William has had his fair share of hilarious digs at his younger brother, Prince Harry, after the announcement of his engagement to Meghan Markle. “Personally, I hope it means [Harry] stays out of my fridge and will stop him scrounging my food,” he joked to the press.
As they say: A royal couple that laughs together, stays together. Especially when they can make the entire world smile along with them.
