I'll change the monarchy when I'm king, says Prince William
BBC News ^ | 2 October 2025 | Daniela Relph

The Prince of Wales has said he will bring change to the monarchy when he is king, in an interview palace sources say is the most open Prince William has ever been.

The Prince was speaking to the actor Eugene Levy in Windsor, for the Apple TV+ show The Reluctant Traveller.

In a revealing conversation, the actor asked Prince William about his future role as King.

"I think it's safe to say that change is on my agenda," he said. "Change for good, and I embrace that, I enjoy that change. I don't fear it, that's the bit that excites me, the idea of being able to bring some change. Not overly radical, but changes that I think need to happen."

The prince made the comments as he gave Levy a tour of Windsor Castle.

William arrived to meet the actor on an electric scooter that he said he used to get around the castle grounds.

He said he had been a fan of the American Pie series of films – the bawdy coming-of-age movies in which Levy played a long-suffering father.

During the tour of some of the castle's grandest rooms, Prince William also spoke about his family history.

"I think if you're not careful, history can be a real weight and an anchor around you, and you can feel suffocated by it, and restricted by it too much.

And I think it's important to live for the here and now."

Prince Willam stresses the importance of tradition but says he isn't afraid to ask questions to keep the monarchy relevant.

"There are points when you look at tradition and go, is that still fit for purpose today? Is that still the right thing to do? Are we still doing and having the most impact we could be having?

We can say that William is definitely more conservative than Harry. Harry and that wife of his are truly wokies.

At least Harry and his wife left the Royal Family to live in USA.

Good for them.

I would have done the same thing.

IF I’m king.....IF.

William is out of touch so he fails to realize that "new citizens" in his country are not going to care about the Royal Family so they will overthrow the "ruling Windsors".

Traditons are for the British.

But they're no longer British.

Some day or week the ragheads are going to storm all the royal properties, imprison or kill all royalty, and move in. And soon, I think.

Those two are over here sticking up for every woke and RAT policy under the sun. They still suck off the Royal family and neither one of them work at all. Lazy and conniving charlatans.

They are lazy grifters who deal behind the backs of Americans.

They're liberal but they're living in California which is perfect for them.

At least they're standing up to the Royal Family.

Like I said, I'll prefer Harry over William. He's more likely to listen to the people (Will that happen? Probably not. But there's more of a chance that will happen).

Harry is a drug addled nitwit. His wife is a loser and slutty narcissist.

Trump has those two pegged. The Meg wants to get into politics next.

No thanks.

And you prefer the Royal Family who have failed to advocate for the British people?

I am an American. I have no preference here other than their behavior. Harry and the Meg behave like cheesy grifters and they sure as hell do not stick up for Americans.

The impact of the UK turning into an Islamic statr armed with nuclear weapons is pretty significant. JD Vance even pointed that out.

His dad said the same thing. Then he actually got all the stuff. It’s easy to say all that stuff is garbage when it’s not yours. It’s harder when it is. I mean it would be cool if he did, they really should end the whole thing. But I doubt he will.

“What change is he talking about?”

Well....change. You know, CHANGE. He even specified, “Change for good.” What more do you need to know. He wants change, and change for good. Whatever he wants will be “for good” because he’ll be the King. And he knows “good”, as in what is good for his ignorant masses who don’t know they want to eat bugs, ride buses and set their thermostats at 45 F during the winters...

“Harry over William”

Really? Neither one is worth much, but Harry has to be one of the DUMBEST people on earth! Married to the Markle? Talk about a pussy-whipped prince...

At least Harry is “smart” enough to leave the UK.

William seems to be awesome. He’ll probably save the UK.

Harry followed his wife to the USA because his only head is the small one. He’s done nothing worthwhile here. Neither has she. They are running thru his cash - and the cash provided by the woke idiots at Netflix - and it will not last forever. Neither will their marriage.

The UK is not what it was decades ago.

The Royal Family is defending the UK as it is today.

Hopefully he dissolves the Parliment and immediately move to save his kingdom by rapidly deporting the alien cultures.

This.

Democracy is the god that failed.

If I were king of the forest
Not queen, not duke, not prince
My regal robes of the forest
Would be satin, and not cotton, and not chintz
I’d command each thing, be it fish or fowl
With a woof and a woof and a royal growl
As I’d click my heel, all the trees would kneel!
And the mountains bow and the bulls kowtow!
And the sparrow would take wing
If I, if I, were king!
Each rabbit would show respect to me
The chipmunks genuflect to me
Though my tail would lash, I would show compash
For every underling!
If I, If I, were king!
Just king!
[DOROTHY, SCARECROW, & TIN MAN]
Each rabbit would show respect to him
The chipmunks genuflect to him
[SCARECROW]
And his wife would be queen of the May

[LION]
And I’ll be monarch
Of all I survey
Monarch
Of all I survey
Mo-na-arch
Of all I survey!
[DOROTHY]
Your Majesty, if you were king, you wouldn’t be afraid of anything?
[LION]
Not nobody, not nohow!
[TIN MAN]
Not even a rhinoceros?
[LION]
Imposserous!
[DOROTHY]
How about a hippopotamus?
[LION]
Why, I’d trash him from top to bottomamus!
[DOROTHY]
Supposin’ you met an elephant?
[LION]
I’d wrap him up in cellophant!
[SCARECROW]
What if it were a brontosaurus?
[LION]
I’d show him who was king of the forest!
[DOROTHY, TIN MAN, & SCARECROW]
How?
[LION]
How?
Courage! What makes a king out of a slave?
Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave?
Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk, in the misty mist or the dusky dusk?
What makes the muskrat guard his musk?
Courage! What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder?
Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder?
Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the “ape” in apricot?
What have they got that I ain’t got?
[DOROTHY, TIN MAN, & SCARECROW]
Courage!
[LION]
You can say that again!
For courage is the king of kings
With courage I’d be king of kings
The whole year round
I’d be hailed and crowned by every living thing
If I, if I, if I, were K-
King!

Well, the Islamists are working on the same here in the US. I don’t see enough going on to stop it here. POTUS has 3 years left to work on the US. Remains to be seen, but it is hard when we have a Deep State that works against him. The RAT Party is a home to these muzzards and encourages them.
