On 21 November 2014, the palace announced his replacement as Jason Knauf.[33]. While the Princess Royal's private residence is Gatcombe Park; her office, headed by the Private Secretary, is based at Buckingham Palace while her official London residence is located at St James's Palace. [208] In May that year, he spent two weeks in North Wales with Mountain Rescue England and Wales (MREW). [328] The couple's lawyers also contacted the photographer, who claimed he was on public roads and had filmed the video after hearing about allegations that the Prince and Princess had broken the "rule of six" as they toured a public attraction at Sandringham while William's uncle and aunt, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, and their children happened to be in the same spot. [302] Analysts from The Times believed the photographs were taken from the D22 (Vaucluse) road half a kilometre from the poola distance that would require an 800-mm or a 1000-mm lens. The Lady Usher of the Black Rod is an important official in the Houses of Parliament; but technically she too is a member of the Royal Household (and acts as the King's messenger at the State Opening). [327], William has been a British prince since birth. It was created in 1660, replacing the earlier title of the Earl of Cambridge. The oldest six titles created between 1337 and 1386 were Duke of Cornwall (1337), Duke of Lancaster (1351), Duke of Clarence (1362), Duke of York (1385), Duke of Gloucester (1385), and Duke of Ireland (1386). The other equerries have a different role: attending and assisting the King in his official duties from day to day. Both titles are reserved for princes (and their descendants). In the past 12 months, William has observed the 25th anniversary of Princess Diana's death; marked the passing of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II; seen himself elevated from Duke of Cambridge . While William rarely spoke publicly about his mothers death, he stated in a speech during a tour of Scotland in 2021 that Scotland is the source of some of my happiest memories. [195] William assured that the royal family would accept each country's decision with "pride and respect". [22] At Ludgrove, he participated in , swimming, basketball, clay pigeon shooting, and cross country running. [42] As "Lieutenant Wales"a name based on his father's title Prince of Waleshe followed his younger brother[43] into the Blues and Royals as a troop commander in an armoured reconnaissance unit, after which he spent five months training for the post at Bovington Camp, Dorset.[44]. As an Earldom Cambridge was a medieval Royal title. After a tumultuous marriage, Williams parents divorced in 1996. [82][83] In 2004, the couple briefly split but continued their relationship soon afterwards. [95] A few hours before the ceremony, William's new titles Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn, and Baron Carrickfergus were announced. [205] On 30 October, Senedd Llywydd Elin Jones noted that an investiture is not a constitutional requirement and suggested that a 21st century Wales does not need an investiture, and that perhaps the monarchy would not want it either. James died at the age of three in 1667, leaving the title to be once again extinct. [34][35][36] While at university, he represented the Scottish national universities water polo team at the Celtic Nations tournament in 2004. [142] The couple toured Canada in summer 2011, attending Canada Day celebrations on Parliament Hill. In this case, he had not lived long enough to be formally created a Duke. [208][267] In December 2009, he, as part of a Centrepoint-organised event, spent the night sleeping bag near the Blackfriars Bridge to raise awareness of the experiences of homeless youth. (However Clarence has since been used as half of a double title, most recently until 1892 when Victoria's grandson (and son of the Prince of Wales), the Duke of Clarence and Avondale, died at the age of 28). An equerry (a major or equivalent from any of the three armed services), and three temporary equerries (usually a captain from the Royal Marines, a captain from the Grenadier Guards, and a captain from the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers) were part of the household. The Duke of Cambridge is one of the six current royal dukedoms in the United Kingdom and is named after the city of Cambridge in England. Apparently, this last Duke was a prolific . [195] During the visit, Jamaican prime minister Andrew Holness told the couple that the country planned to become a republic. [189] In Cornwall on 11 June 2021, William and Catherine attended the G7 summit for the first time. [155] On 21 October, William and Catherine met the President of Singapore, Tony Tan, during his state visit to the UK. In various ways, William has sought to honour Princess Dianas legacy. For the 30th anniversary of his father's charity The Prince's Trust, William and his brother were jointly interviewed for the first time by television personalities Ant & Dec.[130] According to author Tina Brown, he had, like his father, expressed a desire to become Governor-General of Australia. [64][65] He later became patron to the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. [20], William was educated at independent schools, starting at Jane Mynors' nursery school and the pre-preparatory Wetherby School, both in London. His department was responsible for the royal apartments and the people who served there:[12], In the 15th century, the chamber divided into two sub-departments: the great chamber and the privy chamber. The unoccupied royal residences (including the Tower of London) are run by the Historic Royal Palaces Agency, which is self-funding. The premier duke of Scotland is the Duke of Hamilton and Brandon. [346], William descends matrilineally from Eliza Kewark, a housekeeper for his eighteenth-century ancestor Theodore Forbesa Scottish merchant who worked for the East India Company in Surat. [15], In 2022, walking in the state procession for the state funeral of Elizabeth II, the new King was followed by his Private Secretary, Principal Private Secretary, Master of the Household and two Equerries; however, since the King's new household had yet to be appointed they were gazetted, not as 'His Majesty's Household', but as the 'Household of the former Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall'. The handsome Prince William, also known as the Duke of Cambridge, was born William Arthur Philip Louis in London, England, on 21 June 1982 under the zodiac sign of Cancer. Certain independent and honorific posts include Master of the King's Music, Piper to the Sovereign, Poet Laureate, and Astronomer Royal. The royal household fulfilled important functions of government as well as providing for the king's personal needs.
