Despite Wanting to Make "Change For Good" as King, Prince William Is Simply Following in Dad King Charles's Footsteps, Says Royal Advisor

Prince William has made it clear that he's ready to put his own stamp on the monarchy when he becomes King. In his appearance on Eugene Levy's Apple TV+ series, The Reluctant Traveler, the Prince of Wales opened up about wanting to make "change for good" as he looks ahead to his future role. Although Prince William admitted he plans to modernize the monarchy, his Earthshot Prize CEO Jason Knauf, points out that William's approach mirrors that of his father, King Charles.

During his conversation with Levy, the Prince of Wales shared that it "excites" him to think about how he can update certain practices in the Royal Family. "I think it’s safe to say that change is on my agenda. Change for good. And I embrace that and I enjoy that change—I don’t fear it," William said. "That’s the bit that excites me, is the idea of being able to bring some change. Not overly radical change, but changes that I think that need to happen."
