Prince William has known since he was young that one day he will become the king of England, but in the meantime, he has made his own way as a high-ranking member of the British royal family.
The eldest son of King Charles III and Princess Diana, William was born in June 1982. His brother, Prince Harry, arrived in September 1984. The brothers suffered two childhood tragedies: first, their parents’ divorce in August 1996 and then, their mother’s death in August 1997.
William went on to marry his wife, Princess Kate Middleton, in April 2011. The couple share three children: Prince George, born in July 2013, Princess Charlotte, born in May 2015, and Prince Louis, born in April 2018.
