- 0:25Speaker 1: celebrity publicist Jennifer Lopez did he Alicia keys Bongovi and
- 0:30Speaker 1: a very special British celebrity. I represented Naomi Campbell. She's
- 0:35Speaker 1: going to be in one of our stories today. So,
- 0:37Speaker 1: as I said, it's a very special show because today
- 0:40Speaker 1: we're focusing on one celebrity, arguably one of the biggest
- 0:44Speaker 1: celebrities in the world. It is Prince William. Today's show,
- 0:48Speaker 1: we're going to reveal all the secrets about him that
- 0:51Speaker 1: you did not know. I know what you're thinking that
- 0:54Speaker 1: you're thinking, Oh, Rob, we know everything about him. The
- 0:58Speaker 1: minute Diana walked out of that hospital holding the future
- 1:02Speaker 1: King he was only a few hours old. We've seen
- 1:05Speaker 1: him from that moment all the way through his life.
- 1:09Speaker 1: You think you know everything about him, However you don't.
- 1:15Speaker 1: There's lots and lots of things about him you've never
- 1:18Speaker 1: heard before, including the extraordinary promise he made his mummy,
- 1:24Speaker 1: Princess Diana, after her divorce from his father, Prince Charles,
- 1:28Speaker 1: and I do love a tease. I promise I'll get
- 1:30Speaker 1: you the answer during the show. What's that? What do
- 1:35Speaker 1: I hear? What time is it? It's tea time? The
- 1:40Speaker 1: naughty but my secrets you never knew about Prince William.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Don't tell anybody or I will end up in the
- 1:49Speaker 1: Tower of London. And to help me today as a
- 1:52Speaker 1: dear friend of mine, Delana Dixon, we worked together at
- 1:55Speaker 1: Okay Magazine, British magazine that opened here in America. We
- 1:59Speaker 1: also had a morning show together on v H one,
- 2:01Speaker 1: and now Delane is the editor and chief of Diva
- 2:05Speaker 1: Girls Daily. Yes, hello, thank you for joining us. I'm
- 2:08Speaker 1: so glad to be here. We're talking about one of
- 2:10Speaker 1: my favorite subjects, Princess. We'll get a cup of tea.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You sit down, It's tea time. This is one of
- 2:17Speaker 1: my favorite favorite secrets of the entire show. So at first,
- 2:21Speaker 1: his parents couldn't agree upon his little name. Prince Charles
- 2:25Speaker 1: and Princess Diana. They clashed over what to name their
- 2:29Speaker 1: firstborn son, Charles favorite Arthur or Elbert, very traditional royal names.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Princess Diana obviously a new royal, a little less stiff,
- 2:40Speaker 1: shall we say, she liked the names Sebastian and Oliver,
- 2:44Speaker 1: both of which have never been traditional royal names. In
- 2:49Speaker 1: the end, they compromise and they gave William a very
- 2:53Speaker 1: long name. Are you ready for it, Delana? The name
- 2:55Speaker 1: is William Arthur, Philip, Louis windsor rolls off the tone.
- 3:02Speaker 1: So before he was actually given that full, very long name,
- 3:06Speaker 1: they called him baby Whales. So for a week the
- 3:09Speaker 1: whole world referred to him as little Baby Whales. I
- 3:12Speaker 1: love this. You know. They gave a little homage to
- 3:15Speaker 1: his grandfather by calling him Philip. But do you know
- 3:18Speaker 1: his surname is Wales. He actually had to use that
- 3:21Speaker 1: so he could be a part of the army. He
- 3:23Speaker 1: had to have a last name. But I got a
- 3:25Speaker 1: little secret for you, Rob what his wife calls him
- 3:28Speaker 1: when they're alone. She calls him Babe. My sources, we've
- 3:34Speaker 1: found that out, so I had to share it with you.
- 3:36Speaker 1: I love that. It's a great name. I think that
- 3:38Speaker 1: William has such a sort of royal tone about it.
- 3:41Speaker 1: At the same time, it's still pretty modern. Obviously, Diana
- 3:45Speaker 1: wanted him to have a name that could fit in.
- 3:47Speaker 1: His friends call him Wills, which I love. I also
- 3:50Speaker 1: do love the scoop, though to later I didn't know.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Kate calls him babes. Now, William is left handed, but
- 3:59Speaker 1: he had to change his hands to play polo because
- 4:02Speaker 1: you could only play it right hand. In now ten
- 4:04Speaker 1: percent of the world actually is dominant with their left hand.
- 4:08Speaker 1: But this poses a problem if you want to play polo,
- 4:10Speaker 1: because the game is only played with the right hand.
- 4:14Speaker 1: But he was so determined to play that he learned
- 4:17Speaker 1: how to play with his opposite hands. So he's ambide extras.
- 4:20Speaker 1: I'm actually left handed. Another one, Christina I produces left on.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Everybody in this room is left handed. We are the
- 4:27Speaker 1: temper sade of the world right now. What this tells
- 4:29Speaker 1: me them about William, which I think is so interesting,
- 4:33Speaker 1: is polo is the sport of the elites, of kings,
- 4:38Speaker 1: of dukes, of royals, and so at my school we
- 4:41Speaker 1: played football, maybe cricket, but we couldn't afford the horses
- 4:45Speaker 1: to play play polo. I didn't realize this because of
- 4:48Speaker 1: the way you ride the horse, you have to hold
- 4:51Speaker 1: the stick in your right hand. He was so determined
- 4:56Speaker 1: to be part of this sports world that he taught
- 4:59Speaker 1: himself to be right handed only when he's playing polo
- 5:03Speaker 1: the rest of his life left handed. Do you think
- 5:05Speaker 1: he picks his nose with his left ories right left?
- 5:09Speaker 1: I think he should have just taken up volleyball. Then
- 5:11Speaker 1: he could use both hands. It would have been a
- 5:13Speaker 1: lot easier. This secret made me laugh out loud. As
- 5:20Speaker 1: a teenager, he had a crush. Like every other young
- 5:23Speaker 1: boy out there, he had a crush on Cindy Crawford.
- 5:27Speaker 1: He said this in a documentary It was called Diana
- 5:31Speaker 1: and Mother. He recounted the day in the early nineties
- 5:34Speaker 1: nineties when his mother surprised him by arranging for Cindy Crawford,
- 5:40Speaker 1: Christie Turlington and the Omi Campbell to be waiting for
- 5:45Speaker 1: him at the top of the stairs when he came
- 5:48Speaker 1: home from school at Kensington Palace. He said the following quote.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I went bright red and I didn't know quite what
- 5:56Speaker 1: to say. Can you imagine walking home and your teenage
- 6:01Speaker 1: cross is standing on the landing in the house? Now,
- 6:05Speaker 1: this is definitely a reason to be a royal, because
- 6:07Speaker 1: how many boys across the world would dream to see
- 6:11Speaker 1: three supermodels standing on the stairs. But what I find
- 6:15Speaker 1: so interesting about William is he's kind of traded in
- 6:17Speaker 1: his supermodel crush for celebrity couple friends. You know, he's
- 6:21Speaker 1: close to George and I'm all clooney. He hangs out
- 6:24Speaker 1: with the Beckham's. He's even hung out with Beyonce and
- 6:27Speaker 1: jay Z. So he still has celebrity crushes like the
- 6:29Speaker 1: rest of us. They're just a little bit more evolved
- 6:32Speaker 1: and grown up, although arguably him and Kate now are
- 6:35Speaker 1: the two biggest stars in the world. Who was your
- 6:37Speaker 1: celebrity crush, Miss d when you were growing up? It
- 6:40Speaker 1: was Goodness, Well, of course I love me a little
- 6:42Speaker 1: Prince William. I'm a little bit older, but he still
- 6:44Speaker 1: was a cute a cute Oh and I love James McAvoy.
- 6:47Speaker 1: He's so James. I like those European guys as European
- 6:52Speaker 1: I can agree with charming. Mine was Bobby Ewing. I
- 6:55Speaker 1: used to watch Dallas, Remember Bobby Union. I used to
- 6:58Speaker 1: have such a crush on Bobby. Bobby, you and no
- 7:01Speaker 1: Christie Turlington. So the next one, he made a very
- 7:06Speaker 1: special promise to Diana. This is the teas at the
- 7:09Speaker 1: top of the show. I get to give it. So
- 7:12Speaker 1: when the Princess was stripped of her Royal Highness title,
- 7:15Speaker 1: when her divorce became final. Back in, William consoled his mother,
- 7:20Speaker 1: and only the way a future king can he promised
- 7:24Speaker 1: to reinstate her title. Let me explain what this means.
- 7:27Speaker 1: So hr H is a title that only members in
- 7:30Speaker 1: a circle, members of the royal family have. If you're
- 7:32Speaker 1: a hr H, his Royal Highness or her Royal Highness,
- 7:36Speaker 1: if you lose the title, you have to curtsy your bow.
- 7:40Speaker 1: So whenever Diana would go to the palace, she would
- 7:44Speaker 1: technically have to bow to other members of the family,
- 7:48Speaker 1: including her ex husband, Prince Charles. He did not want
- 7:52Speaker 1: his mama doing that humiliating. It's something that really hurt
- 7:56Speaker 1: Princess Diana, and that's when she got the title the
- 8:00Speaker 1: Princess of Hearts. That's when she became England's Rose because
- 8:05Speaker 1: she was no longer h r H. Also to after
- 8:09Speaker 1: her death. The reason they refused at first to lower
- 8:12Speaker 1: the flag on the palace on Buckingham Palace was because
- 8:16Speaker 1: traditionally it's only ever been lowered for people with the
- 8:20Speaker 1: title h r H. When she lost that title, she
- 8:24Speaker 1: lost all the perks, all the respect, everything from being
- 8:27Speaker 1: a member of the royal family. He promised, Mommy, when
- 8:33Speaker 1: I'm king I will give you that title back. What's
- 8:36Speaker 1: really interesting about this though, too. My sources tell me
- 8:39Speaker 1: he can still give it his mother even in death.
- 8:41Speaker 1: So when when he becomes king, and he will soon
- 8:45Speaker 1: one day, he's you know, he can give his mommy
- 8:47Speaker 1: the title back and she will become her royal highness.
- 8:51Speaker 1: It's good to be king. This is a very interesting
- 8:56Speaker 1: one that really took me by surprise. William did not
- 8:59Speaker 1: want to walk behind his mother's casket. If you think
- 9:02Speaker 1: about it, it makes total sense. When his mother died,
- 9:05Speaker 1: he was just fifteen years old. Now, when his mother,
- 9:09Speaker 1: Diana died, she was not in a very good place
- 9:11Speaker 1: with the royals. Charles Spencer, that's her brother, he insisted
- 9:17Speaker 1: that he was walking behind the casket. Prince Charles disapproved
- 9:22Speaker 1: of the idea of Charles Spencer the brother, walking alone,
- 9:26Speaker 1: so he insisted to to be part of the procession.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Then the place thought it would be best to have
- 9:32Speaker 1: the two boys there as well. William was just fifteen,
- 9:36Speaker 1: Harry just twelve. William at first he opposed the idea,
- 9:40Speaker 1: didn't want to do it, had to be convinced to
- 9:42Speaker 1: do it later on, many years later, he told a
- 9:44Speaker 1: BBC documentary he said it was quote a long and
- 9:49Speaker 1: lonely walk, and he said he only did it at
- 9:53Speaker 1: a duty. You know. He's also spoken about how painful
- 9:56Speaker 1: is to lose a parent at such a young age,
- 9:59Speaker 1: and he says when he was walking through the procession,
- 10:01Speaker 1: he actually felt wet hands touching him because people have
- 10:04Speaker 1: been crying before they reached out. But there's one really
- 10:07Speaker 1: amazing thing about this. He actually said when he was walking,
- 10:11Speaker 1: he could feel his mother's presence with him as he
- 10:14Speaker 1: made that procession. So I think it was something that
- 10:17Speaker 1: he looks back on and he's so glad that he did.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Now he may be the future king, but even Prince
- 10:26Speaker 1: William can be a bad boyfriend, because back in two
- 10:29Speaker 1: thousand and seven, he broke up with the future Queen
- 10:32Speaker 1: Kate and he did it over the phone. Yes, she
- 10:37Speaker 1: was at work. She was working at Jigsaw, it's a
- 10:39Speaker 1: fashion company. She was going through the accessories. The phone
- 10:43Speaker 1: rang and it was Prince William saying, sorry, babe, but
- 10:47Speaker 1: it's over, and uh, yeah, I guess she had to
- 10:50Speaker 1: go back to work. Maybe she went in the bathroom.
- 10:53Speaker 1: And like the rest of us, to do stories like
- 10:55Speaker 1: a republic, it's like it's a high street store where
- 10:58Speaker 1: Kate Middleton was work after university, and I would guess
- 11:02Speaker 1: it was before text. But nowadays if he had had text,
- 11:05Speaker 1: would if he had texted her maybe, I think he
- 11:07Speaker 1: would have just said like, hey, sorry, babe, we're like over.
- 11:11Speaker 1: I think that in the long run this really paid off,
- 11:13Speaker 1: because my sources tell me that's when he realized she
- 11:17Speaker 1: was the one. So in the long run, as upsetting
- 11:20Speaker 1: as this was, imagine her back folding the T shirt
- 11:23Speaker 1: was smart. She was real smart. She didn't go and
- 11:26Speaker 1: cry in her coffee. She was out. She used the
- 11:28Speaker 1: tabloids to show Prince William she was having a good time,
- 11:31Speaker 1: and he saw what he was missing. So three months
- 11:34Speaker 1: later he was back and begging her to take him.
- 11:39Speaker 1: This secret took me by total surprise, and I think
- 11:42Speaker 1: it might be to me, the most revealing secret of
- 11:45Speaker 1: the entire show. So William had to trade with Harry
- 11:48Speaker 1: to get Diana's engagement ring. So when William decided to
- 11:53Speaker 1: propose to Kate, he wanted to give her Diana's iconic
- 11:56Speaker 1: diamond engagement ring. It belonged to Harry that right. So
- 12:00Speaker 1: when Diana died in her butler Paul Burrell, who I knew.
- 12:06Speaker 1: Paul told me. He took the boys to the Kensington
- 12:09Speaker 1: Palace apartment where they each got to choose something very
- 12:13Speaker 1: special from their mommy's belongings. Harry chose her engagement ring.
- 12:19Speaker 1: William actually chose her gold Cartier watch. That sounds strange,
- 12:24Speaker 1: but let me explain what's going on. So at the time,
- 12:27Speaker 1: Diana had stopped wearing the engagement ring, she was no
- 12:30Speaker 1: longer with Prince Charles. That ring symbolize something that didn't
- 12:34Speaker 1: feel like love to William. Now her Cartier watch. She
- 12:38Speaker 1: loved that watch. Diana wore that watch all the time.
- 12:42Speaker 1: She wore that what she loved, that Cartier watch. And
- 12:45Speaker 1: so Harry got the ring almost like as the Booby prize,
- 12:49Speaker 1: like the watch was what they wanted. And now fast
- 12:51Speaker 1: forward then he gets engaged. He meets Kate, and so
- 12:54Speaker 1: he has to go to Harry and say, brother, can
- 12:56Speaker 1: I can I have that ring back? Harry said yes.
- 12:59Speaker 1: At the time, this is long before Megan Marco was
- 13:02Speaker 1: in the picture, Harry agreed to switch the ring for
- 13:06Speaker 1: the watch, and that's why Princess Diana's iconic engagement ring
- 13:11Speaker 1: is now on Kate Middleton's finger. I've said it before.
- 13:15Speaker 1: I'm just so shocked that they didn't just take the
- 13:18Speaker 1: ring and say, we know, Prince William is going to
- 13:20Speaker 1: be the future king. It seems befitting that his wife,
- 13:24Speaker 1: the future queen, would be wearing his mother's engagement ring.
- 13:28Speaker 1: And I think that if miss Meg and Marco, who
- 13:31Speaker 1: we love, but I think it might have been a
- 13:33Speaker 1: little bit of an uproar if she hadn't been wearing
- 13:36Speaker 1: the ring. So don't feel bad for her. Though she's
- 13:38Speaker 1: got seventy nine thousand dollars worth the Royal Jews, she
- 13:41Speaker 1: ain't her the rings on the right finger, the rings
- 13:43Speaker 1: on the right finger. Well, surprising coming right off of
- 13:49Speaker 1: that is that Prince William doesn't wear a wedding ring
- 13:53Speaker 1: at all. I know now, while his brother Harry wears
- 13:55Speaker 1: a little gold a wedding band, William doesn't wear a ring.
- 13:59Speaker 1: But there is a very good reason. It's his personal
- 14:02Speaker 1: decision and it follows a very long standing tradition that
- 14:05Speaker 1: kings to be don't have to wear a wedding ring
- 14:08Speaker 1: at all. Now I'm gonna let you explain that I
- 14:10Speaker 1: wear a redding ring. I am married, and we we
- 14:14Speaker 1: wear rings that I would be furious if he didn't. However,
- 14:17Speaker 1: what I do find interesting about this is Williams really traditional,
- 14:21Speaker 1: even though he's modern and cool. I get it. He's
- 14:25Speaker 1: still is going to be the King of England and
- 14:27Speaker 1: there's some traditions that he really still wants to uphold,
- 14:31Speaker 1: including not wearing a ring inside is do tell me though,
- 14:34Speaker 1: don't worry, Kate's fine. When you marry someone that famous,
- 14:38Speaker 1: you don't need to tell everybody you're married by wearing
- 14:41Speaker 1: a ring. If you don't know Prince William is married,
- 14:45Speaker 1: you've been living under a rock. It's not really surprised me.
- 14:50Speaker 1: I couldn't believe this. So when the Royal couple order foods,
- 14:54Speaker 1: they're actually go and pick it up. It's not delivered.
- 14:56Speaker 1: So William told a bunch of students visiting Buckingham Palace
- 15:01Speaker 1: that he struggles with spicy food and prefers bland food.
- 15:05Speaker 1: A William katelo she loves curry's. Curries in Britain are delicious. However,
- 15:11Speaker 1: when they order curry, not only does it have to
- 15:14Speaker 1: be mild because of his weak tummy, but also it's
- 15:17Speaker 1: not delivered. They go and pick it up. I guess
- 15:21Speaker 1: if you order a pizza or some curry. It's quite
- 15:24Speaker 1: tricky to ring the doorbell of Kensington Palace, so maybe
- 15:28Speaker 1: it's just better if they turn up. And I bet
- 15:31Speaker 1: you missed that half an hour window just trying to
- 15:33Speaker 1: get from the from the door to wherever room they're in.
- 15:36Speaker 1: And I also think that they want to go pick
- 15:37Speaker 1: it up to show people. You know, they're just like us.
- 15:40Speaker 1: They can leave the house, they can go out and
- 15:42Speaker 1: I'm sure any restaurant would love to have them in
- 15:44Speaker 1: there for just a minute. I wonder if they leave
- 15:46Speaker 1: a big tip, maybe they send a little something afterwards.
- 15:52Speaker 1: We're gonna take a break, but when we come back,
- 15:54Speaker 1: we've got a very special Royal polar cheeky one. You'll
- 15:57Speaker 1: love it. Also, we've got a naughtious nicest secrets about William.
- 16:02Speaker 1: We will be right back, welcome back to them. Naughty
- 16:11Speaker 1: but I shall hear my mate Delana Dixon, who's got
- 16:13Speaker 1: our nicest of the day, the nicest secret about William. Now,
- 16:21Speaker 1: this is so incredibly wonderful. Fatherhood has made him more
- 16:26Speaker 1: emotional now. William has said in an I TV documentary
- 16:30Speaker 1: that since becoming a father and a father of a
- 16:32Speaker 1: lot of kids, he is more emotional than I used
- 16:36Speaker 1: to be. Now, the smallest things you just well up
- 16:40Speaker 1: about a little bit more. You get affected by the
- 16:42Speaker 1: sort of things that happened around the world more, just
- 16:45Speaker 1: because you realize how precious life is and it puts
- 16:49Speaker 1: it all into perspective. He doesn't mind changing those nappies.
- 16:53Speaker 1: He loves being a father. Thought he a secret about William.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Get this. William was a royal terror when he was
- 17:06Speaker 1: a young young boyer So when he was in preschool
- 17:09Speaker 1: at a nursery school in London in the mid nineteen eighties,
- 17:14Speaker 1: little Wills became known as quote the Basher, the Basher
- 17:18Speaker 1: for his naughty, naughty ways. Apparently, the little devil used
- 17:23Speaker 1: to push in line in front of everybody in the playground.
- 17:26Speaker 1: He even got into some fights. Now, Diana and Charles
- 17:29Speaker 1: were horrified when they found this out, but this is wild.
- 17:34Speaker 1: The parents at the school didn't dare say anything because
- 17:37Speaker 1: they didn't want to insult the future King of England. Ultimately,
- 17:41Speaker 1: though his parents did find out, they fixed it and
- 17:43Speaker 1: I'm pleased to say those days are long behind him. Naughty, naughty, naughty,
- 17:48Speaker 1: Naughtiest of the day. Today's moment of rob Today I
- 17:54Speaker 1: thought that the moment of rob should go to one person,
- 17:56Speaker 1: a really special person, not me, Princess Diana. This is
- 18:00Speaker 1: what she said, and hopefully we can all learn a
- 18:02Speaker 1: little something from these words. Quote. I don't want expensive gifts,
- 18:08Speaker 1: I don't want to be bought. I have everything I want.
- 18:13Speaker 1: I just want somebody to be there for me to
- 18:17Speaker 1: make me feel safe and secure. So on each showed
- 18:21Speaker 1: de Lana. We like to give you a quote or
- 18:23Speaker 1: something to end your day on, something to think about
- 18:26Speaker 1: for a little bit. This really stopped me in my tracks.
- 18:29Speaker 1: I think we think having more clothes, having more shoes,
- 18:31Speaker 1: having more things in our life will make us even happier. However,
- 18:36Speaker 1: in my experience, that's never been the truth. What makes
- 18:38Speaker 1: you really happy in the long term is feeling safe
- 18:41Speaker 1: and secure and being loved and loving your friends and family. Listen, guys,
- 18:47Speaker 1: we love you. We're so happy to be here for
- 18:49Speaker 1: you four days a week. Tell your friends, listen, spread
- 18:53Speaker 1: the word. This is our naughty little show that we
- 18:55Speaker 1: are building together. I'm so proud of this community that
- 18:58Speaker 1: we have created. And remember, if you're gonna be naughty altogether,
- 19:03Speaker 1: you've got to be nice. Take care of everybody, Bye Bye.
- 19:08Speaker 1: It's not even nice with bro
