Prince William Used A Fake Name While At University And I'm Here For His Totally Average Choice

Prince William gives an interview on BBC News.

With the constant attention from both the press and the public, famous people, especially those of the royal capacity, have to go to great lengths if they don’t want to be noticed in public. For Prince William and the Royal Family finding some sense of anonymity has to be difficult. However, it seems like the Prince of Wales found one way to avoid that attention during school by using a fake name that’s totally average. And let me tell you, I’m very here for the name he reportedly chose. 

According to the Mirror, the media had agreed that the prince should be able to study without being swarmed by the press. While attending the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, he met his now-wife Kate Middleton and got a Master of Arts degree in geography. While he didn’t have the same level of attention he's had throughout his life, there was still a lot of interest, which is why he reportedly decided to go by a different name: Steve.
