Prince William isn't the only Millennial to make the gaf—which isn't really a gaf at all, and more so just a mannerism that starkly demarcates Gen Z and Millennials, the latter of which are known for little quirks like pausing at the start of the video to ensure it's rolling (Taylor Swift is notorious for this generational tell).
That's all to say, Prince William giving away his Millennial status only earned him compliments.
"Interactions with royals are getting more and more unserious and I love that for them," commented one viewer.
"Makes them seem more real," Johnson replied.
"He is an icon," another wrote.
But aside from his brilliant TikTok debut, the Prince of Wales also took time to chat with the students, which left an even larger impression.
"He really took a genuine interest in all of our interests and future plans. Honestly, gave the most positive vibes and seems like such a sweet, kind-hearted individual. Even took time to tell us about his plans to help the homeless to spread awareness," Johnson told People. "[Prince William was] one of the nicest people I've met, genuinely takes care in trying to get to know you...Didn't expect him to be so sound...He's literally adorable." Talk about a rave review.
