My guiding principles in life are to be honest, genuine, thoughtful and caring.
I’ve had lots of kids come up and ask for my autograph, I’ve had a grandmother stop me and ask me if I know a good place to buy underwear.
Everybody thinks I drink beer but I actually like cider!
I get quite lazy about cooking because when I come back from work it is the last thing I want to do, really is spend loads of time cooking.
I think it’s very important that you make your own decision about what you are. Therefore you’re responsible for your actions, so you don’t blame other people.
People say it’s not ambitious, but it is actually quite ambitious wanting to help people.
As I learned from growing up, you don’t mess with your grandmother.
My relationship with my grandmother has gone from strength to strength. As a shy, younger man it could be harder to talk about weighty matters. It was: ‘This is my grandmother who is the Queen, and these are serious historical subjects.’
You hear a lot of horror stories about proposing and things going horribly wrong – it went really, really well and I was really pleased when she said yes.
I know that I am very fortunate. I have the support of my family and friends, I do a job I enjoy and I have Catherine.
I always remember having a healthy respect for my grandmother.
I do think I am a country boy at heart. I love the buzz of towns and going out with friends and sitting with them drinking and whatever – it’s fun – but, at the same time, I like space and freedom.
When the Queen says ‘well done,’ it means so much.
My house is to me as my castle, since the law has not the art to destroy it.
I’m always open for people saying I’m wrong because most of the time I am.
I just want to go to university and have fun – I want to be an ordinary student. I’m only going to university. It’s not like I’m getting married – though that’s what it feels like sometimes.
My grandmother certainly does not care for celebrity.
There are times where you can’t do it yourself and the system takes over, or it’s appropriate to do things differently. But I think driving your son and your wife away from hospital was really important to me.
We’ll sort of get over the marriage first and then maybe look at the kids. But obviously we want a family so we’ll have to start thinking about that.
We could not be happier.
