The Prince Who Zoomed: William’s Scootering Adventure with Eugene Levy
ROYAL SCANDALS AND SCOOTERS: PRINCE WILLIAM SHOCKS EUGENE LEVY WITH CANDID CONVERSATIONS
In a jaw-dropping revelation, Prince William has left royal watchers in awe with his openness and humor during an episode of Apple+ TV series The Reluctant Traveler. In a candid conversation, the 43-year-old Prince of Wales shared intimate details about his family, grief, and future plans with none other than American Pie star Eugene Levy.
The hilarious clip shows William effortlessly gliding on an electric scooter within the grounds of Windsor Castle, much to Eugene's amusement. "This is your mode of transport?" Eugene asked, chuckling as William confirmed it was indeed his preferred way to get around. "It gets around nicely, it's quite fun," William replied with a smile.
But it wasn't just the lighthearted moments that left fans buzzing – Prince William also opened up about his feelings on missing his grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II. When Eugene asked if he missed her, William's response was heartfelt: "I do actually, yeah, I do miss my grandmother, and my grandfather... She loved it here [Windsor Castle], she spent most of her time here."
The episode marks a significant departure from traditional royal protocol, with Prince William sharing personal anecdotes and candid conversations with Eugene. The full episode airs on Friday, but a sneak peek reveals the Prince's willingness to speak freely about his family, including his decision to move their family to Windsor Castle in 2022.
Tragically, Queen Elizabeth II passed away just weeks after they made the move, on September 8 at Balmoral Castle. Despite this loss, Prince William and his wife Catherine have chosen to make Windsor their "forever home," with plans to move from four-bedroom Adelaide Cottage to Forest Lodge, a Georgian mansion.
Eugene Levy has praised Prince William for being an "extremely gracious host" and making the experience "very easy." Speaking on The One Show last night, Eugene revealed that he was initially surprised by William's openness: "From the moment he entered the compound on his scooter, I knew things were not going to be what I thought they were going to be when it comes to the monarchy."
When asked about their conversations, Eugene gushed: "Conversation came very easily... He was quite open about talking about things that quite honestly surprised me. He got into personal things and I really did feel good about that the fact that he was this comfortable with me."
It seems Prince William's reputation as a "modern royal" is gaining traction – but some might wonder if his willingness to speak freely will set a new precedent for the monarchy. One thing's certain, though: fans are eagerly anticipating more candid conversations from the Prince in The Reluctant Traveler.
A ROYAL REVELATION
In an exclusive interview with TheScholarlyNote.com, insiders reveal that Prince William's decision to participate in the show was a deliberate attempt to humanize the monarchy. "The Prince wanted to showcase his family's life outside of the usual royal protocol," says a source close to the Palace.
When asked about Eugene Levy's experience on set, another insider confirmed: "Eugene was taken aback by how open William was with him... He felt like he could ask anything and get an honest response."
As fans eagerly await Friday's episode premiere, one thing's clear – Prince William has stolen the show (and our hearts) with his charming scooter ride and candid conversations.

WINDSOR CASTLE: THE ROYAL FAMILY'S NEW HOME
In 2022, Prince William and his family made the move to Windsor Castle from London, citing their desire to spend more time with Queen Elizabeth II. Tragically, just weeks after their arrival, the late monarch passed away.
Since then, the royal family has been busy renovating and settling into their new home at Forest Lodge, a Georgian mansion within the castle grounds. Insiders reveal that Prince William's favorite spot in the house is a cozy sitting room overlooking the gardens – a nod to his grandmother's love for Windsor Castle.
As they prepare to move from Adelaide Cottage to Forest Lodge, fans can't help but wonder what the future holds for the royal family. Will Prince William continue to break with tradition and showcase his more relaxed side? Only time will tell!
