Anyone who shares the same name as Prince William or Kate can celebrate the royal wedding with free entry to the zoo

IF you weren’t lucky enough to receive an invite to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding, London Zoo are softening the blow by offering you free entry over the wedding weekend - as long as you share one of the royal couple’s names.

Anyone called Will or Kate - or William or Catherine - will be given the chance to spend a free day out at the zoo to mark the royal wedding by hanging out with the giraffes, lions, and monkeys.

Those who fit the bill can show their passport or driving licence at the gate from Friday April 29 to Monday May 2 for free entry.

Perhaps the Prince himself will take his new wife for a post-wedding treat...
