Prince William, King Charles poke fun at viral ‘sausage fingers’ before coronation, new royal doc shows

King Charles poked fun at his infamous “sausage fingers” during the coronation earlier this year, a new royal documentary reveals.

The monarch’s meaty mitts have been a topic of discussion since the historic occasion, and have often made the King the butt end of the joke on several occasions.

But it seems as though there are no hard feelings on his part, as even he joined in on the quips during a conversation with his eldest son and heir to the throne, Prince William.

As William uses his hands to close a small clasp holding a lavish robe around his father in the coronation rehearsal, the King’s sense of humor shines through.

“On the day, that’s not going to go in,” William can be heard telling Charles, who hilariously references his own hands by responding, “No, you haven’t got sausage fingers like mine.”

The funny exchange was captured in the “Charles III: The Coronation Year” documentary, set to air on Dec. 26.

The father-son duo burst into laughter after the throwaway comment, which referenced how swollen king’s fingers appear in images.

Charles’s hands came under the spotlight during his May 6 coronation, especially when he placed his hand on the Bible at one point in the ceremony.

Earlier this year, a doctor revealed numerous possible explanations for why the king’s pointers are puffy, citing water retention, infections, arthritis, allergic reactions, autoimmune disease, and more as potential culprits.

Dactylitis, the medical term for the moniker “sausage fingers,” is most often caused by arthritis, although other health conditions could be the cause.

Elsewhere in the documentary, Princess Anne revealed that the late Queen Elizabeth II was worried that her funeral would be too “difficult” to organize if she died at Balmoral and had to be persuaded to stay.

The late monarch died in her beloved Scottish royal residence on Sept. 8, 2022, at age 96.

But in the days leading up to her death, Her Late Majesty had several conversations with her family about her place of death and needed to be persuaded to do what felt right.

“I think there was a moment when she felt that it would be more difficult if she died at Balmoral,” The Princess Royal said in “Charles III: The Coronation Year” documentary, set to air on Dec. 26.

“I think we did try to persuade her that shouldn’t be part of the decision-making process,” added Anne, who boasted a close bond with her late mother throughout her life.
