The cast of Downton Abbey got together Stateside last night to discuss the show on Watch What Happens Live - and there were some right Royal revelations!
Allen Leech, who plays Tom Branson on the hit British period drama, revealed that our very own future monarch Prince William started watching the show religiously with his wife once he became a daddy.
"Obviously he's now got a lot of down time so she's gone 'I'm watching this and you're watching it with me'," Leech joked.
News of their new royal fan emerged as Leech was interviewed on the US chat show along with fellow cast members Rob James-Collier, Laura Carmichael and Lesley Nicol.
When asked "have you ever met the royal family?" Leech replied: "I was actually at an event last week with Prince William, now the Duke of Cambridge. So yeah, I met him last week… shook his hand.
"He actually said 'I'm a big fan of the show. Only now that my wife's had a baby'."
Season four of Downton Abbey, which has already aired in the UK, premieres to a very excited United States public next month.
