Prince William told actor Eugene Levy he plans to modernize the monarchy when he becomes king in an interview for the Apple TV Plus show The Reluctant Traveller. The Prince of Wales stated he embraces change but will avoid overly radical shifts as he toured Windsor Castle with the actor. Palace sources described the conversation as William's most candid public discussion.
William arrived on an electric scooter and spoke about balancing royal tradition with contemporary relevance. He emphasized questioning whether historical practices remain effective, but acknowledged that family concerns about his father's cancer diagnosis, his wife's illness, and raising his children sometimes overwhelm him. The prince expressed pride in how his wife and father handled their health challenges last year.
The prince met Levy at a pub near Windsor Castle, where they discussed media intrusion, parenting, and family openness about difficulties. William said he wants to avoid regressing to the intense scrutiny he and his brother Harry experienced as children. He told Levy he aims to create a world his son would admire.
