Sometimes you just gotta gloat when you’re winning a game against a royal. And that’s exactly what Eddie Redmayne did. The actor confessed on the recent episode of Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live. 

When a caller asked him first about his time at Eton playing rugby with Prince William and if he’d been invited to the royal wedding this past May, Eddie joked, “Quick answer to the second one, no I wasn’t. It’s fine.”

Now about playing rugby: “I did play rugby with Prince William… I always felt a bit sorry for him because basically any school you played, all they basically wanted to do was tackle Prince William and they could say, ‘I tackled Prince William.’ But if you were standing next to Prince William, like I was, it was actually quite easy and quite fun.”

Who DOESN’T want to tackle a prince?!
