“So, I think we all know who the alleged other woman is. Say it with me –– the Marchioness of Cholmondeley –– what a beautiful name!” he quipped, referring to Hanbury’s formal royal title.

“Now there have been rumors an affair between William and the Marching Band of Chicanery since 2019,” he said, mocking her title.“According to tabloids back then, when Kate supposedly confronted him about it, he laughed it off saying there was nothing to it. Always a good response when your wife accuses you of cheating” he continued.
Colbert, 59, then started speaking with a British accent and joked that Prince William said, “Ha ha, imagine me having an affair! It is to laugh.”
“It reminds me of a jape –– knock, knock, who’s there? Oh it’s my illegitimate son. I’ve knocked up my mistress,” he said.
