Prince William<\/a>‘s favorite emoji may not be what you’d expect. Earlier this week, the Prince of Wales and his wife, <\/span>Kate Middleton<\/a>, appeared on BBC Radio One’s\u00a0<\/span>Going Home<\/span><\/em>, to promote World Mental Health Day.<\/span><\/p>\n Amid their discussion, hosts\u00a0Jordan North and Vick Hope asked which emojis the couple used the most.<\/span><\/p>\n “Is this a clean thing or is this a family one?” William, 41, questioned, before delivering his surprising response.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “I’ve been told not to say the aubergine [eggplant] so I’ve got to pick something else,” he said. “It would have been the aubergine but I’m saying now — because I’ve got to be all grown up — it’s the one where the eyes go up and down and the mouth’s out. What’s that one? The slightly crazy one.”<\/span><\/p>\n For her part, the 41-year-old Princess of Wales said, “Mine’s probably got to be the heart with then the crying emoji, the sort of hysterical laughing [one] when things have gone wrong.”<\/span><\/p>\n During their chat, the royal couple also discussed their dinner plans, revealing they’d likely be dining on curry that evening.<\/span><\/p>\n “I can’t do too much spice, I start sweating. It’s not attractive,” William admitted, before his wife noted, “Whereas I like the spice, so I have to sort of cook the curry and then add the spice, extra spice, at the end.”<\/span><\/p>\n “She has to bring it in gently because otherwise I get too sweaty,” William quipped. “It’s not a nice sight!”<\/span><\/p>\n The Wales’ interview came after <\/span>William’s trip to New York City<\/a>, which he took without Kate and their three children —\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Prince George<\/a>, 10, <\/span>Princess Charlotte<\/a>, 8, and <\/span>Prince Louis<\/a>, 5.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “This is a fleeting visit, and the couple tend not to travel abroad together unless they have to, because, of course, they’re juggling childcare and\u00a0<\/span>schooling for three children<\/a>,” royal expert <\/span>Katie Nicholl told ET<\/a> of William’s U.S. visit for The Earthshot Prize. “This is William’s project… This summit was something that William planned to always do on his own.”<\/span><\/p>\n
