Prince William is not going to be a “royal ornament” because he wants to carry a hands-on role with his charity work, learning from the example of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
At a forum at St. James’ Palace, the young prince revealed that he wanted to be more involved, rather than just turning up and opening things. He also learned from Queen Elizabeth as he was influenced with how his grandmother had gone about things and how to care about areas of life and people.
The royal admitted that being involved in some projects was “a gamble” but he hope to get people to see something in themselves they have never seen before.
