The Crown <\/em>starsHelena Bonham Carter<\/a><\/strong> and Olivia Colman <\/strong>have both had hilariously awkward run-ins<\/a> with Prince William<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

During an appearance on Tuesday’s Watch What Happens Live<\/em>, Carter confirmed a fan’s question that she once drunkenly asked the Duke of Cambridge to be her daughter’s godfather. (She shares two kids<\/a>, Billy Burton<\/strong>, 16, and Nell Burton<\/strong>, 11, with ex-husband Tim Burton<\/a><\/strong>.)<\/p>\n

As the star joked to Andy Cohen<\/a><\/strong>, “I wasn’t that<\/em> drunk, but enough drunk for me not to drink anymore.” But she apparently wasn’t the only one partying that night. “He wasn’t totally sober himself,” the Harry Potter<\/em> alum<\/a> dished. “Not in a bad way, it was just very jolly.”<\/p>\n

And then, she explained how this drunk moment went down. “Thing is, I’d spent all my friends as godparents on my first child, so Billy had 11 godparents<\/a>. So, I thought I could make up for Nell, you know who suddenly came along and we didn’t have any left. I thought, ‘Well, if I give her Prince William that would cover,’ you know?”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

And the future King of England gave a funny\u2014and drunk, don’t forget drunk\u2014response. As Carter revealed, “He just said, ‘You don’t want me to be godfather to your child.’ And I left. I mean obviously, it didn’t work out.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Similarly, the actress’ on-screen sister (who plays Queen Elizabeth II<\/strong> opposite her Princess Margaret<\/strong>) revealed on The Graham Norton Show<\/em> earlier this month that she had quite a funny moment with the royal. And it was all about The Crown<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It didn’t go very well,” Colman told host Graham Norton<\/strong> of their first meeting. “I met Prince William at a dinner, and he asked what I was doing at the moment before he quickly added, \u2018Actually, I know what you’re doing.’ I was so excited and asked, \u2018Have you watched it?’ His answer was a firm, \u2018No.'”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Not to worry, though. Just as he was with Carter, Colman said “he was very charming and very lovely” in response.<\/p>\n

For someone who doesn’t watch The Crown<\/em><\/a>, he sure does seem to party with the cast a lot!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
