Kate Middleton’s Unexpected Encounter with an Oscar Nominee

It’s not often that British royalty intersects with Hollywood royalty, especially during the height of Oscar season. But late last month, Prince William and Kate Middleton attended the BAFTA Awards ceremony and encountered a few of the actors favored to take home statuettes at this Sunday’s Academy Awards, including Allison Janney. Since the ceremony, the West Wing’s C.J. Cregg herself has come forward to admit that she broke about two kinds of royal protocol during her unlikely conversation with the princess.

On this week’s episode of pop-culture podcast In the Limelight, hosts Josh Duboff and Julie Miller dissect the adorable interaction. They also offer an update on Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston’s breakup, introducing listeners to the peripheral Theroux-Aniston character they did not know they needed.

So kick off those high heels like your favorite Oscar nominee, pour yourself a glass of white wine, and listen to this week’s episode of In the Limelight.
