Hole in the sole

At first glance, everything seems to befit the perfectionist Prince, but a second take reveals something’s off. Prince William got important updates about climate change and looking after the environment from Sir David Attenborough. Right in the middle of the interview, the Duke crossed his legs and his shoe revealed a giant hole in it. Hilariously, Sir David’s candid pose looks like he noticed it, too. Winks!
