'''William, Pangeran Wales''', {{post-nominals|country=GBR|sep=,|KG|KT|GCB|PC|ADC}} (William Arthur Philip Louis; {{lahirmati|[[Britania Raya]]|21|6|1982}}) adalah [[ahli waris sah]] dari [[takhta Inggris]]. Ia adalah anak tertua dari [[Charles III dari Britania Raya|Charles III]] dan [[Diana, Putri Wales]]. Ia menjadi pewaris mahkota sejak ayahnya dinobatkan Raja pada 6 Mei 2023.
 
William lahir pada masa pemerintahan nenek dari pihak ayahnya, Ratu [[Elizabeth II]]. Ia menempuh pendidikan di [[Sekolah Wetherby]], [[Sekolah Ludgrove]] dan [[Eton College]]. Ia memperoleh gelar [[Master of Arts (Skotlandia)|Gelar Master of Arts]] dalam [[geografi]] di [[Universitas St Andrews]] di mana ia bertemu calon istrinya, [[Catherine, Putri Wales|Catherine Middleton]]. Mereka memiliki tiga orang anak: [[Pangeran George dari Wales|George]], [[Putri Charlotte dari Wales (kelahiran 2015)|Charlotte]] dan [[Pangeran Louis dari Wales|Louis]]. Setelah lulus kuliah, William berlatih di [[Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst]] sebelum bertugas di resimen [[Blues and Royals]]. Pada 2008 dia lulus dari [[Royal Air Force College Cranwell]], bergabung dengan [[RAF Search and Rescue Force]] pada awal tahun 2009. Dia bertugas sebagai pilot penuh waktu dengan [[East Anglian Air Ambulance]] selama dua tahun mulai bulan Juli 2015.
 
William melakukan tugas dan keterlibatan resmi atas nama raja. Dia memegang dukungan dari lebih dari 30 organisasi amal dan militer, termasuk [[Tusk Trust]], [[Centrepoint (charity)|Centrepoint]], [[The Passage (charity)|The Passage]], [[Wales Air Ambulance]] dan [[London's Air Ambulance Charity]]. Ia melaksanakan proyek melalui [[Royal Foundation]], dengan pekerjaan amal yang berkisar pada kesehatan mental, konservasi, tunawisma, dan pekerja darurat. Pada 2020 William meluncurkan [[Earthshot Prize]], inisiatif senilai £50 juta untuk memberi insentif bagi solusi lingkungan selama dekade berikutnya.
 
William diangkat menjadi [[Adipati Cambridge]] tepat sebelum [[Pernikahan Pangeran William dan Catherine Middleton|pernikahannya]] pada April 2011. Ia menjadi [[Adipati Cornwall]] dan [[Adipati Rothesay]] setelah ayahnya naik takhta pada 8 September 2022. Hari berikutnya ia diangkat menjadi [[Pangeran Wales]].

Keputusan untuk menempatkan William di Eton bertentangan dengan tradisi keluarga yang mengirim anak-anak kerajaan ke [[Gordonstoun]], yang dihadiri oleh ayah dan kakeknya. Saudara laki-laki Diana dan [[John Spencer, Earl Spencer ke-8|ayah]] keduanya adalah mahasiswa Eton.<ref name="people1" /> Keluarga kerajaan dan pers tabloid sepakat bahwa William akan diizinkan belajar tanpa gangguan dengan imbalan pembaruan rutin tentang hidupnya. [[John Wakeham]], Ketua [[Komisi Pengaduan Pers]], menyatakan "Pangeran William bukanlah sebuah institusi; bukan pula bintang sinetron; bukan pula pahlawan sepak bola. Dia adalah seorang anak laki-laki: dalam beberapa tahun ke depan, mungkin bagian terpenting dan terkadang menyakitkan dalam hidupnya, dia akan tumbuh dan menjadi seorang pria."<ref name="people1" /> Saat di Eton, dia sering minum teh di akhir pekan di [[Kastil Windsor]] dekat situ bersama neneknya, mendiskusikan [[Kotak merah (pemerintah)|kotak negara]] dan tugas konstitusional yang dimaksudkan untuk "mempersiapkannya sebagai Raja masa depan."<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Lacey |first=Robert |title=How Queen Elizabeth's Sunday lunches with Prince William molded him as a future King |url=https://people.com/royals/queen-elizabeth-prince-william-lunches-molded-him-future-king-robert-lacey/|magazine=People|access-date=10 February 2023|archive-date=28 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230228025839/https://people.com/royals/queen-elizabeth-prince-william-lunches-molded-him-future-king-robert-lacey/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |last=Burchfield |first=Rachel |title=Prince George only recently learned his destiny as future King |url=https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/royals/prince-george-just-learned-he-will-be-king/ |magazine=Marie Claire |date=14 May 2022 |access-date=10 February 2023 |archive-date=10 February 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230210010014/https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/royals/prince-george-just-learned-he-will-be-king/|url-status=live }}</ref>
