The fast-food chain, KFC has jumped on the bandwagon of responding to the viral image of Prince William peeking into one of its restaurants with a lighthearted response. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had made a surprise visit into London on October 20 and met with some of the finalists of the Kate’s ‘Hold Still’ photography project. However, while the royal couple was in Waterloo, Prince William was snapped peeking inside a KFC restaurant before waving to the customers dining inside.
Since then, the pictures of Duke of Cambridge had taken the internet by storm leaving hundreds of internet users amused. Many even made it into a joke about a range of different topics. Now, KFC UK joined the meme-fest by writing a caption starting off by “William whispered…” that he “can’t wait to be wing”. This was followed by another tweet where the fast-food chain said that it is regretting not mentioning the Duke of Cambridge as the “His Royal Highness”. Nevertheless, KFC’s response was also well-received by internet users with one of them saying “brilliant, you both”. Take a look:
‘Hold Still’ launched by the Duchess of Cambridge
The initiative launched by Kate is in collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery which is a competition aiming to document “humour and grief, creativity and kindness, tragedy and hope” of the country amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Even though there were reportedly 31,000 submissions, only 100 made it to the finalists assessed on the “emotions and experiences they conveyed”. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge even shared images from their visit saying “Hold Still comes outdoors”.
Earlier, one year after the Royal couple visited Pakistan, Kate Middleton and Prince William indulged in a virtual catching up session with the teachers and students of Islamabad Model College for Girls and even played a game of Pictionary. As per the social media post by Kensington Palace, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge congratulated the teachers on their hard world and even enquired with the young girls if they were happy on schools reopening amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
