Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have a new "obsession" at home, according to dad Prince William. 

The two youngest Wales children, who have broken up from Lambrook School for half-term on Friday, "love" The Celebrity Traitors, the Prince said.

William, 44, made the revelation as he surprised guests on The Graham Norton Show on BBC One, which airs on Saturday evening. 

Speaking of the beloved show, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, he admitted: "I love it, the family love it. Charlotte and Louis are obsessed with it. It’s really good telly."

However, eldest son Prince George, 13, who has been boarding at Eton College in Windsor, won't have been able to join in with their nightly TV viewing. 

William even met Celebrity Traitors star Ross Kemp during a visit to Somerset earlier in October.

He said: "I saw Ross Kemp the day after the first episode, and I couldn't help but try – in the most appropriate way – to touch him to see what reaction I got from him," he added. "Turns out he was really jumpy!”

TV presenter Maya Jama, comedian James Acaster, and content creator King Kenny are currently starring as the three "traitors" in the BBC Show, after Richard E. Grant and Hannah Fry were "banished" by the group of celebrity "faithfuls".

Prince William's 'dream job' revealed

William joined Cate Blanchett, Robert Irwin and Hannah Waddingham on the chat show to gasps from the audience to speak about his Earthshot Prize environmental award, which connects all four guests.

Asked how he switches off, he said: "It is music and film. I love getting immersed in deep-thinking films.

"I like action films too, but I like something a bit different. I’m a big fan of everything Christopher Nolan does. His films are fantastic – The Dark Knight series is psychologically dark and deep, and I absolutely love that.

"He takes concepts that are completely out there and makes them incredibly entertaining."

The future King also revealed the job he would love to have if he weren't a royal, saying he would have become a policeman or a DJ.

"I did want to be a policeman when I was younger; I thought I could make a good one. And then I went through a phase of wanting to be a DJ – I wasn't very good," he admitted.

Though her appearance has not yet been confirmed by Kensington Palace, the Princess of Wales is rumoured to be accompanying her husband, marking their first joint trip abroad since 2023, when they attended Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan's wedding.
