made a hilarious three-word admission this week in Reading. The Prince of Wales, 42, visited the hospital five years on from the pandemic to see how funds provided by the charity NHS Charities Together have helped the hospital in the years since.
As well as talking to health workers about their experiences, the dad-of-three was also treated to a tour of the Health and Wellbeing Centre and Garden, which was made to provide a range of activities and services to promote staff health and wellbeing. Among the activities available is yoga, which the prince was invited to try his hand at. However, made a quick three-word quip to get out of participating in the exercise.

, when asked by the Centre’s instructor Veenu Sing if he wanted to join a class, the prince joked: “I can’t bend.”
He then said: “I will sit in a corner and talk while you’re contorting.
“We all know when there’s a yoga class that’s when people relax and then just talk.”
The prince was not accompanied by Princess Kate on the special visit.

“Remembering all the staff who lost their lives during the pandemic and thanking all those who continue to take care of us.
