Queen Elizabeth’s sad demise not only brought King Charles onto the throne but also got Prince William a step closer to becoming the future King. As the King ascended to the monarch’s title, Prince William attained the Prince of Wales rank. And he took his role a lot more seriously. Like any other institute’s royal engagements, Prince William overtook the position with great care and maturity. He became a learner in motion to grasp anything and everything to win the hearts of the Welsh people. 

As reported by People Magazine back in the day, the new Prince of Wales immediately got down to render his duties in Wales, owing to some urgent meetings. The meeting was scheduled at the Welsh Parliament, or what is famously called the Senedd. While also taking on his responsibilities, he used the opportunity to cater to his desire to go around the state just to know more about it.

Concerned by his own people, Prince William wanted to “deepen his understanding of the issues and opportunities of greatest importance to the Welsh people,” revealed a statement from Kensington. As he joined the meetings with his brand new designation, Prince William was offered a tour around the Senedd by the presiding officer, Elin Jones.
