Britain's Prince William paid a visit to a facility for homeless people in Cambridgeshire, east England on Thursday.

The Duke of Cambridge sat down with a group of former rough sleepers to hear how agencies in Peterborough helped during lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Prince was asked by one of the rough sleepers if he had lost weight during lockdown, provoking giggles from the rest of the group, including the Duke, who jested "maybe around the jowls."

The visit is part of Prince William's campaign to raise awareness around homelessness in the UK.
