The crowds in Cardiff had worked themselves into a frenzy of anticipation today ahead of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s official visit.
And all of the excitement of the occasion appeared to have gotten to one reporter covering the high-profile appearance, who stumbled over her words as she described the ‘flag-waving’ well-wishers live on camera.
Unfortunately Kate Morgan, a presenter for BBC Wales News, said the word ‘sl*g’, rather than flag.

The pair were carrying out their third engagement as a couple, which kicked off at the breathtaking Cardiff Castle, where they were met by dignitaries and schoolchildren who gifted them with traditional wedding presents.
Meghan-mania saw royal supporters queuing outside the castle from 6am this morning some seven hours ahead of their arrival – but they happily waited in the biting cold for the US-born actress and her besotted prince.
The pair left Paddington Station on time at 11.15am on route for Cardiff but delays to the GWR train meant they arrived at the Welsh capital more than an hour late.
Besotted Harry, 33, has made a promise to his bride-to-be to undertake visits across the U.K. before their wedding, to give the actress a chance to see the country she will come to call home and meet its people.
