Like his father, King Charles, Prince William has spent his entire life planning for the day when he eventually takes the throne. With the Prince of Wales now in his forties and his 76-year-old father battling cancer, that future could potentially not be so distant—and now, a group of royal insiders has opened up to the Times about what William's kingship will look like.
Multiple people who have worked with the Prince of Wales revealed what he's really like behind the scenes, like William Hague, a former U.K. cabinet minister who helped create United for Wildlife with the prince. Prince William contacted Hague to start the organization because of his past work with the illegal wildlife trade, with United for Wildlife falling under the umbrella of the Royal Foundation.
