Kate Middleton tries 'Viagra' delicacy joking 'I'm more adventurous' in resurfaced clip

A resurfaced video of Kate Middleton trying a Caribbean delicacy often compared to Viagra has gone viral, as she is heard quipping "I’m a little bit more adventurous than William".

The Prince and Princess of Wales visited a fish fry and tried a local delicacy ‘conch pistol’ in March 2022 during a visit to the Bahamas.

The video has now gone viral again after being shared by a royal fan account on TikTok - l0velycatherine.

The footage shows Kate holding up the strip of flesh, which comes from the inside of the conch and is commonly said to be the conch’s male genitalia, before putting it in her mouth to applause from the crowds.

Kate said: "I’m a little bit more adventurous than William is."

As the pair joked around, the King-in-waiting said: "I can handle it."

She added that she had already tried conch fritters but had yet to try conch salad.

After watching the footage go viral again, a number of TikTok users quickly heaped praise on Middleton's eagerness to try new things.

One user wrote: “She’s so funny the way she cheekily jokes with him. She’s not afraid to try new things the royals don’t do usually."

Another added: “Why did William fall in love with Catherine? There is the answer. I think Catherine showed him the simplicity of life in the midst of royal life.”

“She’s so stunning. Born to be a queen,” another said.

During the 2022 visit, William was offered a Gullywash – coconut juice with condensed milk. He seemed to enjoy it and joked: "You guys talk amongst yourself I’m staying here."

They moved on to stalls by the beach where vendors were selling handbags and homemade honey.

While talking to stall owner Kimberly Roberts, 49, of Abaco Ceramics, William looked at the honey for sale in jars on the table then pointed to Kate and said: "Catherine has bees at home."

The conch pistol is known as the aphrodisiac of the Caribbean.

It's called 'Bahamian Viagra' and is rumoured to be the conch's male genitalia but is actually an appendage found on both male and female conch.

The appendage is used by the sea creatures for digestion and not mating.

A former royal butler heaped praise on the Princess of Wales sayind she is in an "incredible" position as the Royal Family would "collapse without her".

Paul Burrell, who worked for Kate's late mother-in-law Princess Diana, believes the future of the family "rests" on her shoulders and that everything is "pinned up" by her.
