Miles Teller gave fans a glimpse into the moment he met the royal family.
Teller, 35, was introduced to Prince William and Catherine at the May premiere of “Top Gun: Maverick” in the United Kingdom.
“I kind of had a sheet to prep to make sure I didn’t mess it up,” the actor admitted during an appearance on “The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.”
Despite being given a list of “dos and don’ts,” Teller doesn’t think the encounter went the way it was supposed to go.
Miles Teller admitted he got “lost” in Prince William’s eyes while meeting the royal couple back in May.

“I think right off the bat, I messed up,” Teller explained. “You’re not supposed to extend your hand right off the bat unless they do. But I felt the vibe, so I’m like, ‘I’m going in, I’m going in.’”
Teller emphasized that he only messed up because the then-Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Cornwall were “very disarming.”
“And to their credit, they were very disarming and this and that,” he said before describing a photo for Fallon. “I’m honestly lost in Prince William’s – in his eyes.”
Teller added: “I mean, blue as the bluest ocean, Jimmy.”
Miles Teller noted Kate Middleton was very “cordial” and “regal” during the encounter.

“Kate was beautiful and cordial and holds herself so well and regal. And with William, I don’t know. I just blacked out.”
The “Footloose” star believes he created a “lifelong” fan in the Prince of Wales.
“I think he’s a lifelong fan now,” Teller said.
“He has to be. He felt the vibe was the best,” Fallon responded.
