Royal Alarm Clock Scandal! Forget royal protocol—this morning the palace reportedly woke up to chaos and comedy. Prince William allegedly overslept after his “royal alarm clock” (a.k.a. Duchess Kate) decided to upgrade his wake-up call… by hiding his phone. When the future King finally emerged, staff say he staggered into breakfast looking more like a uni student after Freshers’ Week than a royal ready for duty. His grand excuse? “I’m not late, I’m fashionably late.” Meanwhile, Kate sat calmly sipping her tea, laughing like the true Queen of Pranks she is. Rumor has it William is now guarding his phone as carefully as the crown jewels
In a palace where precision, punctuality, and polished appearances are everything, a royal hiccup has sent shockwaves through the gilded breakfast halls. According to palace insiders, Prince William recently overslept after his so-called “royal alarm clock” — Duchess Kate herself — decided to test her husband’s morning resolve in the cheekiest way possible.
The Setup
Sources say Kate, known for her grace and wit, grew tired of William’s habit of checking his phone first thing in the morning. In a moment of playful mischief, she allegedly “hid” his device under a cushion, declaring that today’s wake-up call would be technology-free.
Instead of rousing him with gentle encouragement, the Duchess is said to have smirked, tiptoed out of the bedroom, and left William blissfully unaware of the ticking clock.
The Chaos Unfolds
By the time the future king finally awoke, he was not only late for breakfast but also greeted by a sea of chuckles from the royal staff. One baffled footman reported:
“His Royal Highness staggered in like a student after a night out. Hair ruffled, shirt half-buttoned, and an expression that said: ‘Where am I and what day is it?’”
Another witness added: “He didn’t even notice the toast. He just sat down and muttered, ‘I’m not late, I’m fashionably late.’”
Kate’s Response
Duchess Kate, reportedly sipping her tea with perfect composure, could hardly contain her laughter. Insiders say she raised an eyebrow and quipped: “Darling, perhaps next time you should set two alarm clocks — me and your phone.”
Her remark allegedly sent the entire breakfast table into fits of laughter, leaving William to bury his embarrassment in a plate of eggs.
Palace Spin Control
While Buckingham Palace has remained tight-lipped about the so-called Royal Alarm Clock Scandal, fans on social media are already running wild with memes. Some are hailing Kate as the queen of pranks, while others are demanding William install a “backup corgi alarm” to prevent future oversleeping.
Royal commentators, meanwhile, argue that the incident shows the couple’s “refreshing normalcy.” One noted: “Even kings-in-waiting hit the snooze button now and then. The only difference is that their snooze button is married to them.”
A Lesson Learned?
Though the royal schedule is rarely forgiving, it seems the scandal ended in laughter rather than chaos. Still, whispers in palace corridors suggest William has since guarded his phone like the crown jewels — just in case Kate tries again.
