Read on to find out more of what you never knew about Prince William.
AsPeoplerecalled, Charles had a very specific name in mind, one that conjured up Britain’s ancient past.
Ultimately, the couple reached a compromise of sorts, deciding to name their son William Arthur Philip Louis.
“So I just basically got called that.
Not because I look like a wombat.
“I can’t get rid of it now.”
Interestingly enough, Wombat might not have been the only nickname to be given to William over the years.
The blow to his head, he added, was severe enough that he needed to be hospitalized.
Not surprisingly, William felt blindsided when he watched.
As he divulged in an interview with theBBC, he had once considered a career in law enforcement.
“I soon learnt that probably wasn’t a good idea.”
“Her heart must have ached with love at his earnest words.”
“It’s quite sweet, really.”
They wed in 2011 and have since welcomed three children.
This was evident in their highly-publicized split in 2007.
The breakup came about while William wasstationedwith the Household Cavalry outside London.
There’s a simple reason for that: He doesn’t want to and doesn’t have to.
“It really is just down to personal preference,” said the aide.
In fact,BBC Newsreported in 2004 that he and a college friend were spotted hitting the waves.
According to William, he enjoyed the solitude of the sport, particularly when underwater.
“There’s no noise,” he described.
“It’s just you breathing.
You’re in a different world with the fish.”
Of course, his experience may have been a bit different had he ventured to Hawaii or Australia.
Instead, William’s surfing adventure took place off the coast of Scotland in October.
