While his little brother Prince Harry (38) is currently in the spotlight due to the sixth edition of the Invictus Games in Germany, Prince William (41) is preparing for his trip to the USA. As early as next week he will travel to the United States of America to promote his environmental project called Earthshot. However, the British royal will apparently do this strictly away from the TV cameras of all major US television networks, as “The Times” now reports.
Accordingly, Prince William has already blocked all requests from well-known TV networks that would have liked to conduct an interview with the future King of Great Britain. This decision certainly has something to do with Prince Harry and his accusations against his British royal family. Harry and his wife Meghan (42) initially caused a stir with a TV interview with Oprah Winfrey (69), then followed up with a joint Netflix documentary and his autobiography “Reserve”. So it’s quite possible that Prince William’s interview cancellations are primarily intended to avoid questions about his brother.
Prince William thus remains true to the royal family’s previous strategy: While Prince Harry repeatedly sought publicity in his criticism of the British royals, with a few and rather subtle exceptions they remained silent.
Instead, Prince William will concentrate fully on his Earthshot project in the USA. The award ceremony, worth a total of 50 million British pounds (around 58 million euros), honors innovative ideas and inventions to combat climate change. Prince William will unveil this year’s 15 finalists in the US city of Boston, Massachusetts. Later this year he and his wife Princess Kate (41) will award the winners in Singapore.
