If the pointed non-reaction is considered an art, Prince William has officially perfected it. For proof of this objective fact of the world we live in, look no further than the clip of William and his disgraced uncle Prince Andrew at the Duchess of Kent's funeral that went viral this week.
The clip, which was dubbed "a case study in please stfu-ism" in a post on X which has been viewed more than 685,000 times as of this writing, shows Andrew sidling up to William at the royal funeral service Tuesday and attempting to strike up a conversation—"attempting" being the operative word.
