Kevin Spacey said King Charles sent him a supportive message

Kevin knows the British royal family through his work for the Prince’s Trust charity and was made an honorary knight by then Prince Charles in 2015.

And the star initially tried to avoid Piers’ question about whether the King had been in touch, with Piers starting the conversation by asking: “When your problems started, when the scandal broke, did he get in touch with you?”

“Um, no, I haven’t heard from him directly, no,” Kevin replied, to which the moderator asked, “But from other people?”

Kevin stuttered as he replied, “That could be true.”

“Come on, Kevin,” Piers replied. “You’ll know whether that’s true or not – he’s the King of England now!”

“I do, but you know,” Kevin began to stutter again, and when Piers asked again, “But he contacted you?” Kevin repeated, “No, he didn’t contact me directly, no.”
