KEY POINTS

  • Prince William once made headlines for seemingly giving reporters the middle finger
  • Prince William has some of the funniest photos online
  • Prince William didn't give reporters the middle finger

Prince William seemingly gave royal fans the middle finger during one of his engagements.

In the snap, the Duke of Cambridge is getting out of the car while gesturing to someone in the crowd. From the first angle that the photo was taken, it looked as though he was really giving the middle finger.

But the frontal angle of the same photo shows that the dad of three was actually signaling using his three fingers in reference to his children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

The photo was taken outside St. Mary’s Hospital’s Lindo Wing shortly after the birth of Prince Louis. The second in line to the throne was also heard telling reporters that he’s very happy and delighted to have three children before making the gesture using his fingers.

Meanwhile, Prince William also previously made headlines after some of his funniest photos were compiled by Good Housekeeping.

In one of his snaps, the future King is channeling his inner yogi at the Audi Polo Challenge charity match in 2016. The photo shows Kate Middleton’s husband warming up with some yoga moves while kneeling on the grass.

Prince William must have felt awkward at that moment, but he managed to laugh off the weirdness.

In 2014, the dad of three couldn’t also control his emotions during Simona Halep and Sabine Lisicki’s Wimbledon match. It is unclear who Prince William was rooting for at that time, but he covered his head and closed his eyes when his favorite player failed to score.

In the same year, Prince William made a hilarious face at the Royal United Services Institute after the emcee, Richard Birtchnell mistakenly introduced him as Prince Philip. A photo of the Duke of Cambridge shows him grinning from ear to ear.

And in 2017, Prince William’s intense facial expression made headlines while he and his wife were at the London Marathon.
