When it comes to Zoom, Prince Philip likes to do things his way.
Prince Harry, grandson of the Duke of Edinburgh, appeared on “The Late Late Show” on Thursday night and revealed that the 99-year-old man knows how to use Zoom, but closes his laptop to end the call instead of pressing the button. “Exit” button.
When James Corden asked the 36-year-old man if his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, knew how to use the online chat service, Harry told the British TV presenter, “Yes, my grandparents do.”
“They zoomed in a few times, saw [my son] Archie running, “he explained.” But my grandfather, instead of pressing ‘Leave Meeting’, he just goes “- and Harry pretends to close his laptop.
