‘The Windsors’ star Hugh Skinner feels sorry for the real British Royal Family.
The 32-year-old actor appears in the royal family comedy, but has admitted to having some sympathy for the real-life royals, saying they live their lives in an "odd" situation.
He said: "If anything, I feel sorry for them because it must be an odd position to be in. I know they have been in that position their whole life but it’s an odd one."
Hugh plays the role of Prince William in the show and revealed he undertook some preparatory work to star as Britain’s future king.
The actor shared: "I did to begin with because I think there’s a specific type of Received Pronunciation that I think he and Kate have.
"So I watched some footage of him for that, mainly because he is one of the most readily available people to find videos of online."
This comes shortly after Prince Harry claimed no one in royal family wants to be king or queen.
Despite the prestige of the title, the royal said that none of his family members wants the throne.
Speaking about the younger members of the family, Prince Harry explained: "We are involved in modernising the British monarchy. We are not doing this for ourselves but for the greater good of the people.
"Is there any one of the royal family who wants to be king or queen? I don’t think so, but we will carry out our duties at the right time."
