KFC pokes fun at Prince William

The fast-food chain, KFC recently 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. 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 took 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”.
