Prince William earns cheeky nickname when he drinks: ‘Not the best’
Mike Tindall revealed that Prince William earned the nickname for the way he handles his drinks
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Prince of Wales is apparently a lightweight when it comes to drinking.
Mike Tindall revealed the nickname he has for Prince William that was inspired after witnessing the way he handles alcohol.
"The Prince of Wales is known to me as 'One Pint Willy' because he's not the best of drinkers. Coming from a sport where it is built on the social aspect and a couple of beers being sunk quite often," Tindall shared on BBC’s "Seven: Rob Burrow" podcast with his wife Zara, who is a first cousin of William.

"That is one I will definitely give away for the Prince of Wales. ‘One Pint Willy.’ It's out there now, sorry sir."
Zara chimed in and told her husband he was going to be in "so much trouble!" for calling out William.

The Tindalls’ comments came after they discussed pet names during the interview.

"We basically call each other ‘munchkins’ a lot, don’t we? Or ‘my love,'" Mike added.

"He is in my phone as something else, and it ends with ‘kitten,’" Zara playfully replied.
