Prince William at Guy Pelly's wedding

Prince William at Guy Pelly's wedding

Britain's Prince William flew back from Memphis, Tennessee, in economy class.

The 31-year-old royal proved he's a man of the people by shunning the lure of champagne and extra leg room in first class, instead joining the masses in standard class on his way back from his friend Guy Pelly's wedding to American hotel heiress Lizzy Wilson.

A picture was posted on Twitter by local reporter Eli Ross of William seated on the plane, alongside the caption: "I am still amazed #Prince William flies COACH. That's pretty humble/awesome. Who knew?"

William, dressed casually in jeans and a baseball hat, was making his way back to London alongside his personal bodyguards to rejoin his wife, Duchess Catherine, and their baby son Prince George.

This comes after the Chicago Tribune reported last week that the down-to-earth royal tucked into a humble meal of nachos and chicken wings at the International Terminal at O'Hare Airport on his journey out last week.

The prince was no doubt enjoying some down time on the plane after his wild weekend, which saw him "dominate the dance floor" and jump onto the stage with the wedding band to perform a crowd-pleasing rendition of 'Shout'.

William and his newly-single brother Harry, who has reportedly split up with Cressida Bonas, were quick to congratulate nightclub owner Guy following the private ceremony and despite the younger sibling appearing a little tired, the pair soon perked up and were "twerking until the early hours of the morning" at the reception.

A source told E! News: "Everyone was chatting and talking as they toasted their glasses and congratulated Guy and Lizzie. Harry looked a little bit tired and was yawning over and over."
