is known for his sense of humor. He has often shown how hilarious he is on
various occasions. Let’s talk about the most recent one. So Matt shared that
Prince Harry approached him as he went on the polo grounds. Of course, he shook
hands, but this wasn’t just any handshake. While shaking hands, Harry addressed
Matt as “Grand-dad,” which was shocking for Smith.

disclosed that one of his friends had previously attended a banquet where Prince
Philip was also present. Smith said that Philip and his buddy had a short
conversation about The Crown [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-crown/] at
dinner; as the meal was coming to a close, Smith’s friend asked the Prince
whether he had watched the show.

Smith claims that his friend recalled Philip responding, “don’t be ridiculous.”

The show’s audience and critics adored Matt for his flawless portrayal of Prince
Philip alongside Claire Foy. He appeared in that position for two seasons before
being replaced in the third and fourth seasons by Tobias Menzies. Now, actor
Jonathan Pryce will take on the part in the fifth and sixth seasons. Imelda
Staunton will join him in the role of the Queen.
