Ever wondered how much Prince's guitar costs? Spoiler: it's more than your average week in London! Plus, Prince William's bedtime reveal might just surprise you!

In a dazzling display of rock royalty, a rare Sadowsky Telecaster guitar formerly owned by the iconic Prince has fetched a whopping £381,000 at a recent Julien's Auction. This electric masterpiece isn’t just a pretty face; it was strummed during his legendary 1986 Parade Tour and featured in the spirited music video for his hit single, "America." As fans and collectors alike drool over this unique piece of music history, it's a testament to Prince's unparalleled talent and his lasting impact on the world of music.

Meanwhile, in a rather unexpected twist, Prince William has opened up about his family's living situation that has connection to the royal title! In the spirit of keeping it real, he revealed in a recent outing that his little dog, Orla, has the luxury of sharing the royal bed with himself and Kate. It seems that being a Prince comes with certain perks—even if that means dodging fur-covered sheets every morning! Who would have thought that the Royal couple shares this relatable habit with a third of the population?

As the world marvels at the jaw-dropping price tag of Prince's guitar, it’s amusing to think about the juxtaposition of these two princely tales. On one hand, you have a music legend's prized possession being exchanged for more than enough money to buy a flat in London. On the other, a down-to-earth royal household juggling pet cuddles and late-night snoring. Perhaps royalty isn’t so unreachable after all, especially when furry friends are involved!

To add some spice to this royal rendezvous, did you know that Prince's guitar was only one of many notable items sold at auction? Collectors are known to pay exorbitant prices for anything related to the Purple One, making his memorabilia some of the hottest items in the market. And speaking of royals, it is said that the practice of dogs sleeping in beds dates back centuries, often considered a sign of comfort and companionship, whether you’re a Prince or just an average Joe!
