The Prince of Wales has given royal fans a peek into his home during a recent podcast appearance. Prince William featured on New Heights, the podcast of NFL stars and brothers Travis and Jacon Kelce.
William, who is the patron of the English Football Association, spoke of England fans and their attitude towards the World Cup, and the culture shock they could experience when drinking American beer.
“I think you haven’t met your match until you’ve met a lot of beer drinkers from the UK,” the prince warned the two NFL stars. “We can handle our own beer to anyone.”
But many royal fans were more interested in what was behind William, with them speculating he was filming in Forest Lodge, the Wales’ home in Windsor.

This is believed as it was filmed around the time England beat Croatia and the Prince and Princess of Wales went to Royal Ascot, so Windsor would be their closest residence.
The 328-year-old and eight-bedroom Forest Lodge underwent a £1.5 million renovation in 2001 and was put on the rental market for £15,000 a month.
Behind William was a large framed oil painting of a winter scene at Windsor Castle, appearing to be viewed from across the river in Eton. The painting is speculated to be sourced from the Royal Collection Trust.
Below the painting was a duck egg blue wooden cabinet. On the cabinet was a copy of Earthshot: How To Save Our Planet by Colin Butfield and Jonnie Hughes. William, who founded Earthshot in 2020, wrote the foreword for the book in 2021.
Also on the cabinet is a sentimental gift – a large pale Yabba pot. It was gifted to Queen Elizabeth by the government of Jamaica for her Golden Jubilee in 2002. It was previously on display in Buckingham Palace but is now a personal item in William’s home.
On the other end of the cabinet was a wicker basket filled with lilies. The Princess of Wales had lily of the valley, symbolising ‘the return of happiness’ and ‘trustworthiness’, in her wedding bouquet in 2011.
