Prince William and Kate Middleton Were Furious About the Royal Family Jokes at the BAFTAs

From Country Living

  • Kate Middleton and Prince William were reportedly upset about the Prince Andrew and Prince Harry jokes at the BAFTAs.

  • The couple might use a "moral clause" when accepting invites from now on.


Okay, so you know how Prince William and Kate Middleton attended the BAFTAs and had to sit through Brad Pitt making a joke about Prince Harry leaving the royal family during his acceptance speech? Yeah, well apparently they weren't here for it—and they were also very much not here for Rebel Wilson's joke about Prince Andrew.

According to sources who spoke to Fox News' Neil Sean, “The feedback is that many of the stars stepped out of line in front of the patron, which is the Duke of Cambridge." The person who “offended the most” was Rebel Wilson, who made a pretty mild joke about both Prince Andrew and Prince Harry, saying “It is really great to be here at the Royal Andrew… uh, Royal Harry, no, at this royal palace place."

As you can see in the above video, William and Kate are smiling, but still look pretty uncomfortable. But the thing is, apparently their reaction shots were edited?

“This was not met with the smiling faces that you saw on the final edited version of the show," Sean said. "A mole also told me that to ensure that the royals are not embarrassed or made fun of again at such a prestigious event like this one... they will have a ‘moral clause’ inserted into their acceptance agreement ensuring that due reverence is given to the royal couple who gave their time and support to such a wonderful celebration of film and is respected."

Yikes.
