The eldest son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales, Prince William has been one of the most inspiring British royals in recent times, devoting much of his early life to military service, and continuing to support charitable causes through The Royal Foundation, managed by himself and The Duchess of Cambridge.
Said to have been inspired by the selfless work of his mother Diana during his youth, the Duke of Cambridge has dedicated his life to non-for-profit organisations, and continues to make an impact on causes close to his heart.
Dubbed the ‘wedding of the century’, 2011 saw the marriage of Prince William and Catherine Middleton, a special wedding that captured the hearts of the British public and those watching around the world.
