Popular star Kevin Costner fondly recalled a sweet encounter with Prince William in England, revealing what the prince said to him during their brief meeting. Read on for more details.
When Kevin Costner heard that Prince William wanted to meet up with him for a private meeting some years ago, he was thrilled and didn't hesitate. "I happened to be in England, and I got this message that the prince would love to talk, and I said, 'What?'... and then I went, 'Okay,' " Costner recalled.
"We met in this room, and it was just us," he says. "He walked up, and we shook hands... The first line out of his mouth was, 'You know, my mom kind of fancied you." he added. This is not his first encounter with the royal family. Years earlier, Costner had been in contact with Princess Diana about collaborating on a sequel to The Bodyguard, his 1992 hit co-starring Whitney Houston.
