Prince Harry Interviews Obama For BBC Radio.
JONES: Welcome back. Prince Harry is pulling out all the stops for his upcoming radio editor slot. He'll be chatting with former US President Barack Obama. Their bromance was on full view when the British royal interviewed Mr. Obama in September for the BBC. Kensington Palace released this snippet of the two warming up.</s>BARACK OBAMA, FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: Do I have to speak faster?</s>PRINCE HARRY: No, not at all.</s>OBAMA: OK. Do I need the British accent?</s>PRINCE HARRY: If you start - if you start using long pauses between answers, you're probably going to get - the face.</s>OBAMA: Are you - let me see the face. Oh, OK. Do you guys have sound? Do you guys -?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You're sounding great.</s>OBAMA: You're all good?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes.</s>PRINCE HARRY: We're excited about this.</s>OBAMA: This is fun. I'll interview you if you want.</s>PRINCE HARRY: No, no.</s>JONES: Well, the BBC is to broadcast the full interview on December 27. History professor and CNN royal commentator Kate Williams is with me now in the studio. Kate, it's the ultimate bromance, isn't it? Not a bad gig to get with your first guest. Prince Harry, though, he seemed to be nervous. In my mind, he seemed quite nervous. Do you think it was because of his interviewee or because he's having to play the interviewer?</s>KATE WILLIAMS, CNN ROYAL COMMENTATOR: Prince Harry, he did seem nervous. He said he was nervous. He said Obama - Mr. Obama, he was excited about. He was excited. And Prince Harry was nervous. And I think he is nervous of the mainstream media. He is very nervous of the media. He is not a brilliant handler of the media unlike his fiancee. And it's a different experience of him being the interviewer rather than the interviewee. But, certainly, you saw the chemistry between them there, the friendship between them there, and absolutely that - bromance.</s>JONES: You mentioned the famous fiancee now, Meghan Markle. She, Prince Harry and Barack Obama, they go way back really, don't they, in terms of shared values and shared interests?</s>WILLIAMS: Yes. And Ms. Markle has been a great supporter of Barack Obama. She has not been a supporter of President Trump. She's definitely the Obama camp. It's very interesting because we haven't heard the interview yet. We're not going to hear that till the 27th of December and then sort of</s>JONES: Quite a force. Quite a team if they do team up indeed after the wedding. And we have to talk about the wedding, of course. Given the fact that these two clearly are friends, can we expect the Obamas to definitely be on the guest list?</s>WILLIAMS: I think had it been Westminster Abbey, they would have definitely been on the guest list. It is a much smaller venue at St. George's, about 800 people. So just smaller. But I do expect you probably will see them. But, of course, then there is the problem that Mr. Trump and Mrs. Trump will probably not be invited. But he's Prince Harry. He's not the heir to the throne. He's a long way from the throne. He doesn't have to invite heads of state. He doesn't have to invite political allies. it's just about his friends. And, clearly, Mr. Obama is one of his friends.</s>JONES: Four people - five people, I should say, who will definitely be on the guest list, because it will be five by the time we get to May 19 next year, will be Prince Harry's brother, Prince William and his wife and children as well. And I think they've got a new Christmas card out, which we can show our viewers now. The family just is a four at the moment. But, of course, the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting and baby's due April 4.</s>WILLIAMS: So, just a month before. So, this photo, we believe, was taken quite a few months ago because the duchess is not showing any hint of pregnancy there.</s>JONES: She doesn't really show that much anyway.</s>JONES: And statesman like, do you think that's because the interview that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did when they announced their engagement, came across so well. They said that they wanted to do so much. And, William, for all of his effort, has been given quite a bad press about being work shy in the past as well. Whereas, this picture very much puts them forward as kind of like the future of the royal family.</s>WILLIAMS: Yes. I think that's true. I think there will be some attempts in the media at dividing them between Harry and Meghan who work hard and William and Kate who don't. And there is - I think that is going to be one of the key parts of William's efforts in PR really to make it very clear that they do work hard as well. Certainly, Harry and Meghan are getting all the attention at the moment. They're the glamor couple. They're everywhere. There are even collaborative mugs being sold in the</s>JONES: Yes. And they have no pressure on them as well, Harry and Meghan as well because he's like, what, fifth in line to the throne and he's about to drop down again as well. Kate, thanks so much. Appreciate it. And thank you so much for watching tonight. Stay with here on CNN. "Quest Means Business" is coming up next. END
