Tom Cruise invited King Charles III to be his wingman during a concert thrown in honor of the new monarch at Windsor Castle.
In a pre-recorded segment titled “Did you know?” – which played just before Lionel Richie took the stage at the Windsor Castle concert – former 007 Pierce Brosnan revealed that the King “was the longest serving Prince of Wales for over 64 years.”.
“During that time the King developed a host of action man skills,” Brosnan continued. “At 22 years old His Majesty got his wings as a fully trained Raf pilot.”
The Vt then cut to adventurer Bear Grylls who added: “He’s also a naval aviator and a trained commando helicopter pilot in the fleet air army.”
The next shot was of Tom Cruise piloting a fighter plane, saying: “Pilot to pilot, Your Majesty, you can be my wingman any time.”
It’s not the first time Cruise has been involved in a royal event.
