Will.i.am wants to move in with Prince Charles.

The Black Eyed Peas rapper asked the heir to the British throne if he had a spare room in his Clarence House residence when the pair recently met up to discuss will.i.am's donation to Charles' Prince's Trust charity.

'The Voice' UK coach - who performed at the Diamond Jubilee Concert - is looking for a new place to stay in capital city and thought the huge home - which Charles shares with his wife Duchess Camilla - could cater for him.

He told The Sun newspaper: 'I told Prince Charles I was looking for a flat here and said, 'This is a big old crib you've got here. It's a big old house. So could I get a little space?''

Will.i.am recently made a £500,000 donation to the Prince's Trust and said he wanted to give back to the people of the UK.

The 37-year-old said: 'The people of the UK welcomed me into their homes every week and I wanted to give something back.

'I called my manager and said, 'What can I do with the money that I'm getting for 'The Voice'? I don't need it'. It's the least I could do - the show changed my life.'
