William, Prince of Wales
At 9:03 pm on the 21st of June 1982, William Arthur Philip Louis was born at St Mary's Hospital in London. He was the first direct heir to the British throne to be born in a hospital. Today he is William, Prince of Wales, heir apparent to his father, King Charles III. His mother was Diana, Princess of Wales.
Since that evening in 1982, almost none of his life has happened out of sight. He has been a pilot, a husband, a father and a charity founder, and each role has played out under a lens. This documentary asks what a future king does with the years before the throne. It asks how a boy shaped by early loss built a public role of his own. And it asks why his causes stretch from helicopters and homelessness to football pitches and the African bush.
Buckingham Palace announced the baby's name on the 28th of June 1982. Robert Runcie, then Archbishop of Canterbury, christened him in the Music Room at the palace on the 4th of August. That day was also the 82nd birthday of his great-grandmother, the Queen Mother. William was the first child born to a Prince and Princess of Wales since Prince John arrived in July 1905.
In 1983, at nine months old, William went with his parents on a tour of Australia and New Zealand. It was his first trip overseas, and the first time a royal baby had been taken on such a tour. Photographs of the family on the grounds of Government House in Auckland won huge global coverage. They are credited as a major reason the Buzzy Bee toy, which William was playing with, became a New Zealand cultural icon.
His brother Harry was born in September 1984. The two boys were raised at Kensington Palace in London and at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire. Within the family William was known as Wills. Harry called him Willy, and their mother called him Wombat.
Diana wanted her sons to have broader and more ordinary experiences than a royal upbringing normally offered. She took them to Walt Disney World, to McDonald's, to AIDS clinics and to shelters for the homeless. The biographer Robert Lacey describes a child who was rambunctious and bratty, then became more reflective and noticeably quiet once he started boarding school. Diana reportedly called him “my little wise old man”, and by his early teens she had begun to confide in him.
William's first public engagement came in 1991, when he accompanied his parents to Llandaff on Saint David's Day. Later that year he and Harry joined their parents on an official visit to Canada. They went to Canada again with Charles in 1998. His parents divorced in 1996.
Diana died in a car accident in the early hours of the 31st of August 1997. William was 15 and staying at Balmoral Castle with his 12-year-old brother, his father and his grandparents. The next morning, Charles told both boys what had happened.
Before the funeral, William was reportedly unsure whether to walk behind his mother's coffin. His grandfather, Prince Philip, told him: “If you don't walk, I think you'll regret it later. If I walk, will you walk with me?” On the day, William and Harry walked with their father, Prince Philip and their maternal uncle, Charles Spencer, 9th Earl Spencer. The procession ran from Kensington Palace to Westminster Abbey.
William later said he had been “in a state of shock for many years”. In 2014 the brothers inherited their mother's wedding dress, along with dresses, diamond tiaras, jewels, letters and paintings. They also received the original lyrics and score of “Candle in the Wind”, written by Bernie Taupin and Elton John and performed by John at the funeral.
William's schooling began at Jane Mynors' nursery school and the pre-preparatory Wetherby School, both in London. He moved on to Ludgrove School near Wokingham in Berkshire, where he played sport. Then came Eton College, where he studied geography, biology and history of art at A-Level and joined several sports teams.
Choosing Eton broke with royal habit, because his father and grandfather had both gone to Gordonstoun. The royal family and the press struck a bargain. William would be left to study without media intrusion, and in return the public would receive periodic official updates.
In June 1991, a fellow pupil accidentally hit William on the forehead with a golf club. He was admitted to the Royal Berkshire Hospital with a depressed fracture of the skull. Surgery followed at Great Ormond Street Hospital, and the injury left a permanent scar. The incident drew widespread media attention.
After Eton came a gap year with a varied itinerary. In Belize he joined British Army training exercises, and in England he worked on dairy farms. He visited Africa, and he spent 10 weeks in southern Chile with Raleigh International. There he took part in community projects and taught English.
In 2001 William enrolled at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. The media again agreed not to invade his privacy, and students were warned not to leak stories to the press. He began a degree in art history but switched his main subject to geography. Other students reportedly called him “Steve”, so that journalists could not identify him.
In 2004 he represented the Scottish national universities water polo team at the Celtic Nations tournament. His dissertation examined the Rodrigues coral reefs in the Indian Ocean. In 2005 he graduated with an upper second-class honours Master of Arts degree, and the following year he would put on a uniform.
William entered the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in January 2006. Officer Cadet training there ran for 44 weeks and led to a commission as a British Army officer. Because his father's title was Prince of Wales, he served under the name Lieutenant Wales. In December that year he followed his brother into the Blues and Royals as a second lieutenant. Five months of training at Bovington Camp in Dorset came after that.
Plans to send him to Southern Iraq were leaked to the press. The Queen had approved frontline service, but the government decided against the move. It concluded that he would endanger himself and those around him if he were targeted. Instead William trained with the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. He earned a commission as a sub-lieutenant in the first and as a flying officer in the second.
At RAF Cranwell, William received his RAF wings from his father, who had earned his own wings after training there. During that secondment he flew to Afghanistan on a C-17 Globemaster that carried home the body of Trooper Robert Pearson. He then completed an accelerated Naval Officer training course at the Britannia Royal Naval College.
In July 2008, William was serving on HMS Iron Duke when it took part in a £40m drug seizure in the Atlantic, north-east of Barbados. He was part of the crew of the Lynx helicopter that helped seize 900 kg of cocaine from a speedboat. Across 2008 and 2009 he also spent up to six weeks with the Special Air Service, the Special Boat Service and the Special Reconnaissance Regiment.
In January 2009 William transferred his commission to the RAF and became a Flight Lieutenant. He trained as a helicopter pilot with the Search and Rescue Force. He graduated from the Defence Helicopter Flying School at RAF Shawbury in January 2010. Then he moved to RAF Valley on Anglesey to train on the Sea King, graduating in September 2010. That made him the first member of the royal family since Henry VII to live in Wales.
His first rescue as Sea King co-pilot came in October 2010, answering a call from Liverpool Coastguard. In November 2011 he helped rescue two sailors from a sinking cargo ship in the Irish Sea. From February to March 2012 he spent six weeks in the Falkland Islands with No. 1564 Flight. Argentina's government condemned the deployment, so close to the 30th anniversary of the Falklands War, as a “provocative act”. In June 2012 he qualified as a captain. His active service as a rescue pilot ended in September 2013, after 156 operations in which 149 people were rescued.
In July 2015 William began full-time work as a pilot with the East Anglian Air Ambulance, based at Cambridge Airport. He called it a natural progression from search and rescue, and he donated his full salary to the charity. He needed a civil pilot's licence first, and he completed part of that training at Norwich Airport. The work meant irregular shifts and mostly critical-care cases. William later spoke about how witnessing trauma and bereavement affected his mental health and personal life. The BBC wrote that he had been “exposed to the National Health Service in a way that no other senior royal has been or possibly ever will be.”
William left the air ambulance in July 2017 to take up full-time royal duties, but he stayed connected to the cause. He became official patron of London's Air Ambulance Charity in March 2020. In May 2020 he let it use the private lawn at Kensington Palace as a refuelling point during the pandemic. In February 2023 he became patron of the Wales Air Ambulance charity. In December 2025 he became patron of the Special Air Service Regimental Association.
In 2001, William met Catherine Middleton while both lived at St Salvator's Hall at the University of St Andrews. They became close friends. She reportedly caught his attention at a charity fashion show in 2002. In their second year they shared a flat with two other friends. The couple began dating in 2003.
From 2003 to 2005 they lived at Balgove House on the Strathtyrum estate with two roommates. They also began staying at Tam-Na-Ghar, a cottage on the Balmoral estate that the Queen Mother had given William shortly before her death. It has remained a private retreat for the couple. They briefly separated in 2004 and soon reconciled.
Tabloid attention grew so intense that William asked the press to keep its distance from Middleton. She and her family attended his passing-out parade at Sandhurst in December 2006. In April 2007 the two were reported to have separated. Three months later she attended the Concert for Diana, and the couple were reported to have rekindled their relationship. In June 2008 she was at Windsor Castle for the Order of the Garter procession, where William was made a Royal Knight of the Garter.
In June 2010 the couple moved into a cottage on the Bodorgan Estate in Anglesey, Wales, where they lived until 2014. In October 2010 they became engaged at a remote alpine cabin on Mount Kenya. The trip was a 10-day visit to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, celebrating William's completion of the RAF helicopter search-and-rescue course. Clarence House announced the engagement on the 16th of November. William gave his fiancée his mother's engagement ring.
The wedding took place at Westminster Abbey on the 29th of April 2011. The global audience was estimated at around 300 million, and 26 million watched the ceremony live in Britain alone.
Prince George was born in July 2013, Princess Charlotte in May 2015 and Prince Louis in April 2018. All three were born at St Mary's Hospital in London. The family has kept English Cocker Spaniels. Lupo died in 2020, and the couple now have Orla and one of her puppies, Otto.
Nottingham Cottage was their London residence until 2013. That year £4.5 million of renovations were completed at Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace, which remains their official residence in the capital. The Queen gave them Anmer Hall on the Sandringham estate as a wedding gift, and they lived there from 2015 to 2017. Kensington Palace was their primary residence until 2022, and then came Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, where they stayed until October 2025. Forest Lodge is their current residence.
William's first solo public engagements came in July 2005 on a tour of New Zealand, where he took part in World War II commemorations. His first official tour followed in January 2010, with the adviser David Manning at his side, visiting Auckland and Wellington. Crowds of “many thousands” turned out, and the welcome was compared with his mother's 1983 tour. In March 2011 he spoke for his grandmother at the memorial service in Hagley Park, Christchurch, shortly after the earthquake.
On the day of his wedding in April 2011, the Queen created William Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn and Baron Carrickfergus. The letters patent were issued on the 26th of May. That summer he and Catherine toured Canada. Nicholas Witchell of BBC News called the tour an “unqualified success”. He noted that a relaxed approach, from tree planting to street hockey, charmed the public. In 2012 the couple served as ambassadors for the London Summer Olympics.
In September 2013 the couple visited Singapore, Malaysia, Tuvalu and the Solomon Islands as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. In April 2014 they toured New Zealand and Australia with their son George. In December 2014 they visited New York and Washington DC, where William gave a speech at the World Bank condemning the illegal wildlife trade.
In 2015 and 2016, William visited Japan, China, Bhutan and India. He was the first royal to visit mainland China in almost three decades, and the press called his diplomacy “deft” and “polished”. Media allegations that he was “work-shy” drew a reply. He stressed his commitment to his duties and pointed to his fatherhood and his air-ambulance work.
France, Poland, Germany and Belgium came in 2017, then Sweden and Norway in January 2018, and Jordan, Israel and Palestine in June 2018. Those visits were made at the request of the Foreign Office and were read as support for UK-European relations after Brexit. In October 2019 William and Catherine toured Pakistan, the royal family's first visit there in 13 years. The tour was widely regarded as a success.
In November 2020 it emerged that William had tested positive for COVID-19 in April. He had chosen not to alert the media, “to avoid alarming the nation”. The Daily Telegraph reported that he had been “very ill”, while other sources said he had not been seriously ill or bedridden. In December 2020 the couple toured England, Scotland and Wales by Royal Train. Boris Johnson supported the tour, and Scottish first minister Nicola Sturgeon criticised it, citing travel restrictions.
In May 2021, William toured Scotland with Catherine as Lord High Commissioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. They attended the G7 summit in Cornwall that June, their first. In March 2022 they toured Belize, the Bahamas and Jamaica for the Platinum Jubilee. Calls for reparations for slavery became a major theme among protesters. At the unveiling of the National Windrush Monument in London, William called the tour “an opportunity to reflect” and condemned the racism faced by the Windrush generation and British minorities.
Queen Elizabeth II died on the 8th of September 2022, and William's father became King Charles III. That day William automatically became Duke of Cornwall and Duke of Rothesay. He also gained the titles Earl of Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles, and Prince and Great Steward of Scotland. For one day he was styled the Duke of Cornwall and Cambridge. On the 9th of September Charles created him Prince of Wales. Letters patent, which also made him Earl of Chester, were issued on the 13th of February 2023. In Scotland he is styled the Duke of Rothesay.
Senedd Llywydd Elin Jones said an investiture was not constitutionally required and likely unnecessary. Kensington Palace agreed that it was “not on the table”. William and Catherine visited Anglesey and Swansea on the 27th of September 2022, their first visit to Wales as Prince and Princess of Wales.
In February 2024 William visited the British Red Cross headquarters and met aid workers helping civilians in the Gaza-Israel conflict. He issued a government-approved call to end the fighting. In December 2024 he attended the reopening of Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris, where he greeted the US president-elect, Donald Trump. They later held a private meeting on UK-US relations. In April 2025 he attended the funeral of Pope Francis on his father's behalf.
In October 2025 William appeared on the Apple TV+ series The Reluctant Traveler. Commentators described it as his most open and authentic interview. He spoke about family life and the need for the monarchy to remain “fit for purpose”. On the 6th of November 2025 he attended the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Belém in place of Charles III. The Daily Telegraph called his address “his highest-profile speech to date”.
The Duchy of Cornwall is a private estate valued at about £1.3 billion. It was established in 1337 to provide an income for the heir apparent. In his first full year as Duke of Cornwall, it generated £23.6 million for him. In May 2026 it was reported that he pays between £5 million and £7 million a year in income tax. Around 20% of the estate is reported to be sold by 2040. William plans to invest £500 million toward housing and environmental initiatives, funded through land sales, development income, partnerships and borrowing.
William's mother's family tree reaches back to Charles II. Through her he descends from Henry FitzRoy, 1st Duke of Grafton, and Charles Lennox, 1st Duke of Richmond, two illegitimate sons of that king. His matrilineal line also traces to Eliza Kewark, a housekeeper to the 18th-century Scottish merchant Theodore Forbes, who worked for the East India Company at Surat. In June 2013, DNA tests on two distant matrilineal cousins confirmed that she was of Indian descent.
Those lines of descent carry a constitutional curiosity. As king, William would be the first monarch since the death of Anne in 1714 to descend undisputedly from Charles I. He would also be the first to descend from Charles II.
William became patron of the Tusk Trust in December 2005, a charity that works for wildlife conservation and community development across Africa. In April 2008 he launched its 5,000-mile bike ride across the continent. Since 2013 the Tusk Conservation Awards have honoured environmental activists each year. In December 2014 he established the United for Wildlife Transport Taskforce to reduce the global illegal wildlife trade. In 2014 Jane Goodall stated that he believed all ivory in the royal collection should be destroyed.
In October 2020, after two years of research, William launched the Earthshot Prize. It was designed to fund and encourage environmental solutions over the following decade. He later gave a TED Talk as part of the TED Countdown climate initiative. Later that month he took over the patronages of Fauna and Flora International and the British Trust for Ornithology from his grandparents. He also appeared in the ITV documentary Prince William: A Planet For Us All.
In July 2022 William condemned the murder of the South African park ranger Anton Mzimba and called for those responsible to “be brought to justice”. In 2021 he had privately donated to the Thin Green Line Foundation, which gives grants to the families of rangers killed while protecting wildlife. He spoke at the Illegal Wildlife Trade Conference in 2018 and has advocated stricter penalties for poachers and traffickers.
Since 2009, William has been patron of Child Bereavement UK, which supports children and families who have lost a loved one. In 2016 the Royal Foundation launched Heads Together, a campaign led by William, Catherine and Harry to de-stigmatise mental health. Mental Health at Work followed in September 2018, and Heads Up in May 2019 with the Football Association. That same month the couple, with Harry and his wife Meghan, launched Shout, the United Kingdom's first 24/7 text-messaging service for people in mental-health crisis. During the COVID-19 lockdowns, William volunteered on the crisis helpline.
He links his interest in mental health to his air-ambulance flying, his work with homeless people, veterans' welfare and Catherine's anti-addiction advocacy. In April 2020 he and Catherine announced Our Frontline, which supports the mental health of emergency medical workers. In September 2020 he established the Emergency Responders Senior Leaders Board, working with King's College London and the Open University. In May 2024 he announced a three-year funding package for We Are Farming Minds, which supports farmers on Duchy of Cornwall land. He became its patron in March 2025.
In December 2009, William spent a night in a sleeping bag near Blackfriars Bridge at an event organised by Centrepoint, to raise awareness of youth homelessness. He had become the charity's patron in September 2005. He first visited The Passage in 1993 with his mother, and he became its patron in 2019. In 2022 and 2023 he was seen selling copies of The Big Issue, which homeless and unemployed people sell to earn an income.
In June 2023, after two years of development, William launched Homewards, a five-year initiative aiming to end homelessness in the United Kingdom. It works in six pilot locations, each with seed funding from the Royal Foundation. It stresses early intervention and housing families before tackling problems such as abuse or joblessness. In February 2024, with the Cornish charity St Petrocs, he announced 24 homes on Duchy of Cornwall land in Nansledan. Future plans include more than 400 social-rented homes and a further 475 affordable dwellings in South East Faversham.
In 2016, William appeared on the cover of the July issue of Attitude, the first member of the royal family to feature on the cover of a gay magazine. In his work against cyberbullying, he has stressed the importance of being “proud of the person you are”. He hosted a Pride Month discussion with mental-health charity volunteers at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern in June 2023.
In December 2010, William and David Cameron met FIFA vice-president Chung Mong-joon. Chung suggested a vote-trading deal for England's 2018 World Cup bid. The English delegation reported it to FIFA as a violation of anti-collusion rules. In 2011 William voted against Australia's 2022 bid and for South Korea. In 2020 he voted for Colombia over the joint Australia and New Zealand bid for the 2023 Women's World Cup.
In February 2021, after an investigation into racist abuse aimed at Marcus Rashford, William issued a statement as president of the Football Association. He called racist abuse “despicable” and said everyone had a responsibility to build an environment of tolerance and accountability. In April 2021 he criticised the planned Super League for the damage it risked causing to the game. In July he condemned racist attacks on England players after their loss in the UEFA Euro 2020 final.
In November 2022, Welsh football supporters and the actor Michael Sheen criticised William for holding the Prince of Wales title while presenting jerseys to the England squad. Wales and England had been drawn in the same World Cup group, Group B. William said he had supported England from a very young age, but that he happily supported Welsh rugby union over England.
William has owned a Ducati 1198 S Corse, and both he and Harry are enthusiastic motorcyclists. In May 2014 he became president of the British Sub-Aqua Club, as his father and grandfather had before him. In January 2018 he took part in a bandy event in Stockholm.
In August 2023, Gallup named William the most popular public figure in the United States after surveying views on 15 prominent individuals. YouGov found him the most popular member of the royal family in December 2022 and September 2023, and the second most popular in April 2024. Time magazine listed him among the world's most influential people in 2011, alongside his newly married wife. In 2025 the couple appeared on the inaugural Time 100 Philanthropy list and topped Tatler's social power index.
Ruth La Ferla of The New York Times contrasted William's “refined” and “polite” appeal with the “bad-boy” popularity of Leonardo DiCaprio. He was once regarded as a heartthrob. After his marriage his image grew more “staid” and fatherly. Anne McElvoy has described a “genial presence” with a “tougher side”. She notes that much of his work concerns “big bet” projects rather than “plaques and patronages”. In a 2016 interview, William said his aim was to keep the royal family relevant over the next 20 years.
The death of Diana in 1997, while she was being chased by paparazzi, shaped the way William and Catherine deal with the media. They have repeatedly asked for privacy when off duty. In 2005, William spoke with the ITV reporter Tom Bradby and concluded that their voicemails were probably being accessed. An investigation led by Deputy Assistant Commissioner Peter Clarke found that the compromised accounts belonged to William's aides, including Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, rather than the prince himself.
Clive Goodman later stated that he had hacked William's phone on 35 occasions. Andy Coulson, editor of News of the World from 2003 to 2007, apologised to William and Harry. He accepted “ultimate responsibility” for Goodman's actions. William later sued News Group Newspapers, publisher of News of the World and The Sun. The case ended in an out-of-court settlement in 2020.
In January 2007, around Middleton's 25th birthday, William issued a statement saying that media intrusion had become intolerable. In October that year he condemned the “aggressive pursuit” by photographers as the couple left a London nightclub. The Press Complaints Commission warned editors against publishing images obtained through harassment. The Daily Mail, Daily Mirror and Daily Express complied, while The Sun published photographs taken before their car departed. In April 2009, his lawyers won an apology from the Daily Star over a false claim that he had “wrecked” a $2 million training aircraft.
In September 2012, the French edition of Closer and the Italian magazine Chi published topless photos of Catherine sunbathing at Château d'Autet. The couple filed a criminal complaint and a civil suit in Nanterre. A court banned further publication and launched a criminal inquiry. In 2017, Closer was fined €100,000, and its editor and owner were fined €45,000 each.
In October 2014, the couple issued a legal warning to a freelance photographer for harassing and following George and his nanny. In August 2015, Kensington Palace released a letter describing the media's dangerous attempts to photograph George and Charlotte. In June 2022, a three-minute video of William confronting the paparazzi photographer Terry Harris appeared on Harris's YouTube channel. It was recorded in January 2021 near Anmer Hall, as Harris tried to film the family on a bike ride. Kensington Palace called it a breach of privacy and asked for its removal.
In October 2025, Harry named William and Catherine in his court case against Associated Newspapers. He alleged that private investigators were employed to gather information about them, including a payment for details of William's 21st-birthday party in 2003. Later that month, William and Catherine won a privacy case in France against Paris Match over unauthorised photos taken during a family ski trip in the Alps.
