Royal pop star (6)
I believe the answer is:
prince
This could be a double definition.
'royal' is the first definition.
(prince is a kind of royal)
'pop star' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prince that I've seen before include "Pincer movement around the royal" , "King's son" , "Machiavellian ruler" , "Sovereign's son" , "Possible future titular head" .)
