Prince William Admits Being 'a Lot More Emotional' as a Father
The Duke of Cambridge recently admitted that he's changed emotionally since becoming a father. Prince William said fatherhood has definitely changed him during an interview with Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly (Ant and Dec) for Prince Charles' charity "The Prince's Trust."
According to BBC, Prince William spoke about how becoming a father to two adorable children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, had changed his perception about things. The 33-year old admitted that he is weirdly "more emotional now" and that he easily gets worried over simple things.
"I never used to get too wound up or worried about things. But now the smallest little things, you well up a little more, you get affected by the sort of things that happen around the world or whatever a lot more, I think, as a father," he said during his interview for the ITV documentary "When Ant and Dec Met The Prince: 40 Years of the Prince's Trust."
The Duke of Cambridge also expressed his opinion about the importance of life and how realizing its preciousness "puts all into perspective." According to Hello Magazine, the prince likewise shuddered at the thought of not seeing his children grow up, possibly recalling his personal experience of losing his mother, Princess Diana, when he was only 15-years old.
Prince Charles was also in the same interview with Ant and Dec, where he talked about the importance of his charity. The Prince of Wales said his trust holds the same story of his life when he left the Royal Navy.
He reportedly had to prove to people that he can build it from the ground up which he admitted was "quite difficult." The Prince of Wales also expressed his interest to see either of his sons, Prince William or Prince Harry, take over his charity when he is no longer capable of handling it due to old age.
"The Prince's Trust" reportedly started in 1976. Prince Charles built it from the severance pay he received when he left the Royal Navy. It is said to be one of Britain's leading youth charities now with 825,000 young members.
This is not the first time that Prince William had spoken about his children with the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. Prior to the Christmas holidays, Prince William had talked fondly about Prince George being a handful now that he has learned what Christmas is all about. The Duke of Cambridge had joked about Prince George being frisky on Christmas "like a rabbit" during an interview with the Big Issue.
