Prince William has snubbed an opportunity to join Hollywood socialite Paris Hilton at the opening of a nightclub in Las Vegas.

Paris met the Royal during a night out at London’s Whiskey Mist Nightclub last week.

According to The Mirror, Paris texted William the following day to invite him to a party.

“The royal set find the whole thing totally hilarious and have been encouraging him to go to Vegas for the opening of Paris’s latest venture,” says a source.

“Although flattered by her attentions, William doesn’t think he can justify the jaunt – and has politely turned her down.”
