Was just reading about Prince William's  trip to NYC last week. He was there to speak at an awards dinner for a charity he supports.  Very low-key, even flew commercial and went for a run in Central Park. A couple of inconspicuous security people. No paparazzi at all. The article contrasted it to his brother's last trip to NYC with his wife who accepted an award at a hotel. There was drama. Kate stayed behind with the children. I am so impressed with the heir to the throne.

@Trailrun23 ,  it's nice to see him bringing attention to our wonderful first responders, like fire fighters.

Seems to be quietly doing an excellent job in whatever task presents itself.

He looks different.  He looks like he has lost weight.

@Trailrun23 - I live in NY and saw coverage of his trip here.  He also waded into the East River and spent time with school children working on an oyster project.  He will make an excellent king one day, but still seems down to earth with no airs about him.

He was groomed from a very young to be King.   He does seem like an ordinary young man though, right?

He does seem very down -to-earth and mature enough to have embraced his newest responsibilities as next in line for the throne. I am sure King Charles is very proud of him.

Prince William hit the ground running on Monday, visiting the Billion Oyster Project on Governors Island, which is restoring oyster reefs to New York Harbor in collaboration with New York City communities. The project aims to make the waters around New York clean by putting a billion oyster shells in them by 2035 to act as natural filters.

Prince William met with schoolchildren who are studying marine biology and talked with employees of the Billion Oyster Project.

His smile is exactly like his Mother's.  His interaction with the children is nice.

@MoJoV   I agree.  To me he has always resembled his mother.

I think he will make an excellent future King!
