Kevin Spacey has hinted that King Charles III sent him a message of “support” amid the actor’s various sex scandals. The House of Cards star, 64, claimed that while he hasn’t heard from the monarch “directly”, he did receive word from him. Spacey told Piers Morgan on his controversial Uncensored program that King Charles had done an “extraordinary job” over the years with the Prince’s Trust charity, a group that helps young people build confidence and find jobs.
When Morgan asked whether the King reached out to Spacey after his recent scandals blew up, the actor replied: “No, I haven’t heard from him directly, no.” Pressed on whether he had received a message through other people, Spacey admitted: “That may be true.” He added: “I heard a message, yes, and I’m very, very grateful for that.
” At Morgan’s insistence, Spacey confirmed that the message was one of “support.” When Morgan asked if that had meant a lot to him, Spacey deflected: “Yeah, but look, I don’t want to drag him into all this.” Spacey was presented with an honorary knighthood by then-Prince Charles in 2016.
The actor also told Morgan that he had written a letter to King Charles but had not yet sent it to him. Spacey’s appearance on the show follows the Channel 4 documentary Spacey Unmasked , which aired fresh allegations about the American Beauty star last month. In a promotional video teasing the interview, Morgan called Spacey “one of Hollywood’s biggest vill.
