Brooklyn Beckham made a subtle dig at Prince William as he shared his closeness to the royal’s brother William. The eldest offspring of footie legend David, 49, and pop icon turned fashion mogul and Victoria, 50, has reportedly been rubbing shoulders with the royals for years.

Brooklyn, now 25, got chatty about his regal encounters on Watch What Happens Live! with host Andy Cohen, 56, and fellow guest star Zachary Quinto. A nosy viewer was dying to know which members of the Windsor clan young Beckham found himself around the most, name-dropping Prince Harry, 40, and Meghan Markle, 43.

Andy probed: “Growing up, which members of the Royal Family did you see the most often, especially since your family is friends with Harry and Meghan?” After a brief pause, Brooklyn dished out the deets, revealing it was “probably” Prince William, 42.

When quizzed further by Andy, who wanted the lowdown on William, asking: “What’s he like? Is there something about him that people don’t get? Is he fun?”

Brooklyn heaped praise on Prince William during a chat, saying: “He’s just like the sweetest guy ever. He really is.” The star guest couldn’t help but gush about the future king on the telly, adding: “He’s really down to earth. He’s really [a] good guy,” reports the Mirror.

His parents, David and Victoria Beckham, have been VIP guests at not one but two regal ‘I dos’. They were snapped at William and Kate’s big day at Westminster Abbey in 2011, and then again at Harry and Meghan’s at Windsor Castle in 2018.

Fast forward to 2022, and it turns out that William and Kate got the golden ticket to Brooklyn’s wedding with Nicola Peltz. Word on the street was the Beckhams were worried about whether to ask Team Cambridge or Team Sussex due to whispers of a royal rift.

In the end, they decided on William and Kate, according to a source who said: “David and Victoria wrote to William and Kate inviting them and the family to their son’s wedding, and William replied wishing them a great deal of joy but they are unable to attend.”
