I’m his son,” Prince William politely said in reference to his father, King Charles<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n William then pivoted to asking Mohammed questions about himself and how his school day went. “What’s your name? Mohammed. How are you, Mohammed? Nice to see you. Did you have a good day at school?” he diplomatically asked.\n<\/p>\n
