Prince Harry caught a case of the jitters when he sat down to interview former President Barack Obama [6] for BBC Radio 4's Christmas programming recently. "You're excited about this; I'm nervous about this. That's what's quite funny," he told Barack, who appeared to be his usual cool, calm, and collected self. "It's fun. I'll interview you if you want," Barack teased. Harry revealed he much preferred to be the one asking the questions and warned Barack if he paused too long in between answers he would get "the face." You have to watch the video above to see what it looks like! (Spoiler: it's adorable.)

The two were last seen looking like BFFs [8] (sorry, Joe Biden) while watching a basketball game together at the 2017 Invictus Games in September. Barack extended his well wishes to Harry and Meghan Markle [9] after the couple announced their engagement last month [10], writing, "Michelle and I are delighted to congratulate Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on their engagement. We wish you a lifetime of joy and happiness together." Awww, someone should really get these two a reality show already.
