THE ROYAL WEDDING

The Royal Family of the United Kingdom participate every year in hundreds of public events and provides work and money to Britain. In fact, the British Monarchy is the richest in the world. A difference between the English royal family and Spain royal family is that a lot of English are supporting their royalty.

PRINCE WILLIAM
Prince William 2nd in line to the British throne was born on 21st June 1982 at StwilliamMary’s hospital, London. He was the first child of Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales and was born to intense media interest, an interest that has followed him through his life. As a grandchild to the queen is official title is His Royal Highness Prince William of Wales. If his father was to predecease Queen Elizabeth II it is likely he would be given the same title as his father Prince of Wales. He has a younger brother Harry and two step siblings; Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Bowles from his father’s second wife Camilla Parker Bowles.

Prince William Education

He was educated at various private schools in London and Berkshire before moving to the prestigious Eton college at the age of 11. It was hoped such a school would provide a safer environment, relatively protected from the intrusions of the media. By and large the media did respect the Palace’s request to “leave William alone until he was 18”. As a way of thanking the media, in his last year TV cameras were given a rare insight into the Prince at Eton, showing him enjoying various activities such as cooking and sport. Since leaving school relationship with the media have been less cordial, especially with regard to interest over his girlfriend Kate Middleton.
