'''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]]
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]].
== Kelahiran dan kehidupan awal ==
Pangeran William lahir pada pukul 21:03 BST pada tanggal 21 Juni 1982 di [[St
|Rumah Sakit St Mary]], [[London]], sebagai anak pertama dari [[Charles III|Charles, Pangeran Wales]] (kemudian menjadi Raja Charles III), dan istri pertamanya, [[Diana, Putri Wales]], pada masa pemerintahan nenek dari pihak ayahnya, Ratu [[Elizabeth II]]. [[Istana Buckingham]] mengumumkan namanya – William Arthur Philip Louis – pada tanggal 28 Juni. William dibaptis di Ruang Musik Istana Buckingham oleh [[Uskup Agung Canterbury]] saat itu, Robert Runcie, pada tanggal 4 Agustus, bertepatan dengan ulang tahun ke-82 nenek buyut dari pihak ayahnya, [[Ibu Suri Elizabeth]]. William adalah anak pertama yang lahir dari seorang Pangeran dan Putri Wales sejak [[Pangeran John dari Britania Raya|Pangeran John]] lahir dari [[George V dari Britania Raya|Pangeran George]] dan [[Mary dari Teck|Putri Mary]] (kemudian menjadi Raja George V dan Ratu Mary) pada bulan Juli 1905. Saat berusia sembilan bulan, William menemani orang tuanya dalam tur ke [[Australia]] dan [[Selandia Baru]] pada tahun 1983, sebagai perjalanan pertamanya ke luar negeri. Itu juga menandai pertama kalinya seorang bayi kerajaan dibawa dalam tur ke luar negeri. Adik laki-lakinya, [[Harry, Adipati Sussex|Pangeran Harry]], lahir pada bulan September 1984. Keduanya dibesarkan di [[Istana Kensington]] di London, dan [[Highgrove House]] di [[Gloucestershire]].
Dikenal secara informal sebagai "Wills" dalam keluarganya, William dijuluki "Willy" oleh saudaranya dan "Wombat" oleh ibunya. Diana berharap agar putra-putranya memperoleh pengalaman hidup yang lebih luas dan lebih khas di luar pendidikan kerajaan, membawa mereka ke [[Walt Disney World]], [[McDonald's]], [[klinik AIDS]], dan tempat penampungan bagi para tunawisma. Penulis biografi [[Robert Lacey]] menyatakan bahwa William, seorang anak yang "berisik" dan "nakal", tumbuh "lebih reflektif" dengan "karakter yang sangat pendiam" saat ia mulai bersekolah di asrama. Diana dilaporkan menggambarkan William sebagai "lelaki tua bijak kecilku" yang mulai diandalkannya sebagai orang kepercayaannya sejak ia remaja.

William melakukan keterlibatan publik pertamanya saat menemani orang tuanya dalam kunjungan ke [[Llandaff]] pada Hari Santo David tahun 1991. Ia dan Harry melakukan perjalanan ke Kanada dalam kunjungan resmi bersama orang tua mereka pada tahun 1991 dan sekali lagi bersama Charles pada tahun 1998. Orang tua William bercerai pada tahun 1996. Diana meninggal dalam kecelakaan mobil pada dini hari tanggal 31 Agustus 1997. William, yang saat itu berusia 15 tahun, bersama dengan saudara laki-lakinya yang berusia 12 tahun dan ayah mereka, sedang menginap di [[Kastil Balmoral]] pada saat itu. Keesokan paginya, Charles memberi tahu William dan Harry tentang kematian ibu mereka. William dilaporkan tidak yakin apakah ia harus berjalan di belakang peti jenazah ibunya selama prosesi pemakaman. Kakeknya, [[Pangeran Philip, Adipati Edinburgh]], mengatakan kepadanya: "Jika kau tidak berjalan, kurasa kau akan menyesalinya nanti. Jika aku berjalan, maukah kau berjalan bersamaku?". Di pemakaman, William dan Harry berjalan di samping ayah, kakek, dan paman dari pihak ibu, [[Charles Spencer, Earl Spencer ke-9]], di belakang iring-iringan pemakaman dari Istana Kensington ke [[Westminster Abbey]].
Setelah kematian ibunya, William menyatakan bahwa ia "dalam keadaan syok selama bertahun-tahun". Ia dan Harry mewarisi sebagian besar dari £12,9 juta yang ditinggalkan oleh ibu mereka pada ulang tahun ke-30 mereka masing-masing, angka yang telah tumbuh menjadi £10 juta masing-masing pada tahun 2014. Pada tahun 2014, kedua bersaudara itu mewarisi gaun pengantin ibu mereka beserta banyak harta benda pribadinya lainnya, termasuk gaun, tiara berlian, perhiasan, surat, dan lukisan. Mereka juga menerima lirik dan skor asli lagu "[[Candle in the Wind]]" karya [[Bernie Taupin]] dan [[Elton John]] yang dibawakan oleh Elton John di pemakaman Diana. Pada tahun 2002, The Times melaporkan bahwa William dan Harry juga akan berbagi £4,9 juta dari dana perwalian yang didirikan oleh nenek buyut mereka pada ulang tahun ke-21 mereka masing-masing, serta £8 juta pada ulang tahun ke-40 mereka masing-masing.
==Pendidikan==
William bersekolah di [[Sekolah swasta di Inggris|sekolah swasta]], dimulai di sekolah pembibitan Jane Mynors dan [[Sekolah Wetherby]] pra-persiapan, keduanya di London.<ref>{{cite web|title=Wetherby Pre-Preparatory School|url=http://www.londonpreprep.com/schools/boys/wetherby-school/|work=London Pre-Prep|access-date=23 July 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130807082846/http://www.londonpreprep.com/schools/boys/wetherby-school/|archive-date=7 August 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> Setelah itu, ia bersekolah di [[Ludgrove School]] dekat [[Wokingham]], Berkshire, dan mendapat bimbingan belajar privat selama musim panas oleh [[Rory Stewart]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2009/oct/26/rory-stewart-penrith-tory-seat|newspaper=The Guardian|first=Allegra| last=Stratton|title=Former royal tutor Rory Stewart selected for safe Tory seat|date=26 October 2009|access-date=16 December 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190529210048/https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2009/oct/26/rory-stewart-penrith-tory-seat|archive-date=29 May 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> Di Ludgrove, ia ikut serta dalam [[sepak bola asosiasi|sepak bola]], renang, basket, [[menembak merpati tanah liat]], dan [[lari lintas alam]]. Ia kemudian diterima di [[Eton College]], mempelajari geografi, biologi, dan sejarah seni di [[A-Level]]. Ia memperoleh nilai 'A' dalam geografi, nilai 'C' dalam biologi, dan nilai 'B' dalam sejarah seni.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/newsandgallery/news/prince_william_gives_an_interview_at_the_start_of_his_univer_422216032.html|title=Prince William gives an interview at the start of his university career |date=22 September 2001|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120113130840/http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/newsandgallery/news/prince_william_gives_an_interview_at_the_start_of_his_univer_422216032.html|archive-date=13 January 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=What is it like at Eton College? |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4634031.stm |work=BBC News |date=4 July 2005|access-date=11 October 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090426124436/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4634031.stm|archive-date=26 April 2009|url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Bates|first=Stephen|date=18 August 2000|title=William makes the grade|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2000/aug/18/alevels2000.alevels4|newspaper=The Guardian|access-date=16 December 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161201205811/https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2000/aug/18/alevels2000.alevels4 |archive-date=1 December 2016|url-status=live}}</ref> William adalah kapten tim renang dan tim sepak bola rumahnya di Eton, juga mengambil polo air.<ref name="rbarber">{{cite book|last=Barber|first=Richard|title=The Story of Ludgrove|date=2004|publisher=Guidon Publishing|isbn=978-0-95-436172-3|pages=244–245}}</ref><ref name="princeofwales1">{{cite web|url=http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/personalprofiles/princewilliam/interests/|title=The Prince of Wales – Interests |website=The Prince of Wales |access-date=15 October 2008 |archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20080616074353/http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/personalprofiles/princewilliam/interests/ |archive-date =16 June 2008}}</ref>
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>
Pada bulan Juni 1991, William dirawat di [[Rumah Sakit Royal Berkshire]] setelah secara tidak sengaja terkena pukulan di dahi oleh seorang murid lain yang sedang memegang tongkat golf. Ia menderita fraktur depresi pada tengkorak dan dioperasi di [[Rumah Sakit Great Ormond Street]], yang mengakibatkan bekas luka permanen.<ref name="university">{{cite web|url =http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/newsandgallery/news/prince_william_marks_the_end_of_the_first_term_of_his_third__1470010393.html|title =Prince William marks the end of the first term of his third university year with an interview|access-date =31 May 2008|date=14 December 2003|website=The Prince of Wales|archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20081025092622/http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/newsandgallery/news/prince_william_marks_the_end_of_the_first_term_of_his_third__1470010393.html|archive-date =25 October 2008|url-status=dead|df =dmy-all}}</ref> Peristiwa ini mendapat perhatian media yang luas.<ref name=rbarber /> Pada tahun 1999, ia menjalani operasi pada tangan kirinya setelah jarinya patah.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/gallery/20220406137292/royals-with-painful-injuries-photos/1/|title=17 times the royals have sported injuries|magazine=Hello!|first=Ainhoa|last=Barcelona|date=6 April 2022|access-date=3 September 2022|archive-date=4 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220904001434/https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/gallery/20220406137292/royals-with-painful-injuries-photos/1/|url-status=live}}</ref> Setelah menyelesaikan studinya di Eton, William mengambil jeda satu tahun, di mana ia mengambil bagian dalam latihan [[Tentara Inggris]] di Belize,<ref name="BBC Belize">{{cite news |title=Rugged prince scores PR triumph |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1064991.stm |work=BBC News |date=11 December 2000 |access-date=11 January 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170804121741/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1064991.stm |archive-date=4 August 2017 |url-status=live }}</ref> bekerja di peternakan sapi perah Inggris, dan mengunjungi Afrika.<ref>Prince of Wales.gov [http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/personalprofiles/thedukeandduchessofcambridge/thedukeofcambridge/biography/gapyear/ personalprofiles] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110602083612/http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/personalprofiles/thedukeandduchessofcambridge/thedukeofcambridge/biography/gapyear/ |date=2 June 2011 }} & royal.gov [https://www.royal.uk/the-duke-of-cambridge The Duke of Cambridge] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160509115208/https://www.royal.uk/the-duke-of-cambridge |date=9 May 2016 }} Retrieved 8 February 2012</ref> Sebagai bagian dari program [[Raleigh International]] di kota [[Tortel]] di Chili selatan, William bekerja selama sepuluh minggu pada proyek konstruksi lokal dan mengajar bahasa Inggris.

==Pengangkatan awal dan Penugasan==
Pada usia 21 tahun, William diangkat sebagai Penasihat Negara; ia pertama kali menjabat dalam kapasitas itu ketika Ratu menghadiri Pertemuan Kepala Pemerintahan Persemakmuran pada tahun yang sama. Pada bulan Juli 2005, ia memulai keterlibatan publik solo pertamanya dalam tur luar negeri ke [[Selandia Baru]], bepergian untuk berpartisipasi dalam peringatan [[Perang Dunia II]]. Menurut penulis Tina Brown, ia, seperti ayahnya, menyatakan keinginan untuk menjadi Gubernur Jenderal Australia. Pada tahun 2009, Ratu mendirikan kantor pribadi untuk William dan Harry dengan [[David Manning]] sebagai penasihat mereka. Manning menemani William dalam tur resmi pertamanya pada bulan Januari 2010 saat yang terakhir melakukan tur [[Auckland]] dan [[Wellington]] William membuka gedung baru Mahkamah Agung Selandia Baru dan disambut oleh seorang kepala [[suku Māori]]. Kunjungan itu memacu kerumunan "ribuan orang", dengan penerimaan publik yang positif dibandingkan dengan tur ibunya tahun 1983. Pada bulan Maret 2011, William mengunjungi [[Christchurch]], Selandia Baru, tak lama setelah gempa bumi, dan berbicara di upacara peringatan di Hagley Park atas nama neneknya. Ia juga melakukan perjalanan ke Australia untuk mengunjungi daerah-daerah yang terkena banjir di [[Queensland]] dan Victoria.
Sebelum kuliah di Sandhurst, William menjalani magang selama tiga minggu di beberapa lembaga, termasuk [[Bank of England]], [[Bursa Efek London]], dan Lloyd's of London. Untuk mempersiapkan diri dalam mengelola Kadipaten Cornwall, pada tahun 2014, ia masuk [[St John's College]], Cambridge untuk mengambil jurusan manajemen pertanian eksekutif yang diselenggarakan oleh Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership (CPSL), yang disponsori oleh ayahnya. Pada bulan April 2019, Istana Kensington mengumumkan bahwa William telah menyelesaikan magang tiga minggu di MI5, MI6 dan GCHQ, di mana ia ditugaskan untuk memantau sel-sel teror Islam ekstrem, mengidentifikasi potensi ancaman di luar negeri, dan mengamati teknologi pemecahan kode.

[[File:Prince William of Wales RAF.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Berseragam [[Royal Air Force]] di [[Trooping the Colour]] tahun 2010|alt=lihat keterangan]]
Setelah memutuskan untuk berkarier di militer, William diterima di [[Royal Military Academy Sandhurst]] pada bulan Januari 2006; penerimaannya didasarkan pada keberhasilan menyelesaikan kursus selama 44 minggu sebagai Kadet Perwira yang membawanya pada penugasan sebagai perwira [[Angkatan Darat Inggris]]. Sebagai "Letnan Wales" – nama yang diambil dari gelar ayahnya saat itu, Pangeran Wales – ia mengikuti jejak saudaranya ke Blues and Royals pada bulan Desember tahun itu sebagai komandan pasukan di unit pengintaian lapis baja, setelah itu ia menghabiskan waktu lima bulan untuk berlatih di Kamp Bovington di Dorset.
Meskipun Ratu menyetujui William untuk bertugas di garis depan, posisinya sebagai pewaris takhta kedua pada saat itu menimbulkan keraguan atas peluangnya untuk terlibat dalam pertempuran. Rencana Kementerian Pertahanan untuk mengirim William ke Irak Selatan bocor dan pemerintah akhirnya memutuskan untuk tidak mengirimnya karena akan membahayakan nyawanya dan nyawa orang-orang di sekitarnya jika ia menjadi sasaran. William malah berlatih di [[Royal Navy]] dan [[Royal Air Force]], memperoleh jabatan sebagai sub-letnan di [[Royal Navy]] dan perwira penerbang di Royal Air Force, keduanya secara umum setara dengan pangkat letnan di angkatan darat. Setelah menyelesaikan pelatihannya, ia menjalani pelatihan tambahan di Royal Air Force di RAF Cranwell.
Setelah menyelesaikan pelatihannya, ia diberikan sayap RAF oleh ayahnya, yang telah menerima sayapnya sendiri setelah pelatihan di Cranwell. Selama penugasan ini, William terbang ke Afghanistan dengan C-17 Globemaster yang memulangkan jenazah Trooper Robert Pearson. William kemudian diperbantukan untuk berlatih di Royal Navy. Ia kemudian menyelesaikan kursus pelatihan Perwira Angkatan Laut yang dipercepat di Britannia Royal Naval College. Saat bertugas di [[HMS Iron Duke]] pada bulan Juli 2008, William berpartisipasi dalam penyitaan narkoba senilai £40 juta di Atlantik, timur laut Barbados. Ia adalah bagian dari kru helikopter Lynx yang membantu menyita 900 kg kokain dari sebuah speedboat.
[[File:HRH Prince William Pilots Seaking Helicopter During Search and Rescue Exercise MOD 45151868.jpg|thumb|left|Mengemudikan helikopter [[Westland Sea King|Sea King]] pada tahun 2010|alt=lihat keterangan]]
Pada bulan Januari 2009, William memindahkan jabatannya ke RAF dan dipromosikan menjadi Letnan Penerbang. Ia berlatih untuk menjadi pilot helikopter dengan Pasukan Pencarian dan Penyelamatan RAF. Sebagai bagian dari pelatihannya di semua cabang militer pada tahun 2009, ia menghabiskan hingga enam minggu dengan Special Air Service, Special Boat Service, dan Special Reconnaissance Regiment. Pada bulan Januari 2010, ia lulus dari Sekolah Penerbangan Helikopter Pertahanan di RAF Shawbury. Pada bulan yang sama, ia dipindahkan ke Unit Pelatihan Pencarian dan Penyelamatan di RAF Valley, [[Anglesey]], untuk menerima pelatihan helikopter pencarian dan penyelamatan Sea King; ia lulus pada bulan September 2010. Ini menjadikannya anggota pertama keluarga kerajaan Inggris sejak Henry VII yang tinggal di Wales.
Misi penyelamatan pertama William sebagai kopilot RAF Sea King adalah sebagai tanggapan atas panggilan darurat dari Penjaga Pantai Liverpool pada bulan Oktober 2010. Pada bulan November 2011, ia berpartisipasi dalam misi pencarian dan penyelamatan yang melibatkan kapal kargo yang tenggelam di Laut [[Irlandia]]; William, sebagai kopilot, membantu menyelamatkan dua pelaut. Ia dikerahkan ke [[Kepulauan Falkland]] untuk tugas selama enam minggu dengan Penerbangan No. 1564 dari bulan Februari hingga Maret 2012. Pemerintah Argentina mengecam pengerahan William ke pulau-pulau tersebut menjelang peringatan 30 tahun dimulainya Perang Falklands sebagai "tindakan provokatif". Pada bulan Juni 2012, ia memperoleh kualifikasi untuk menjadi kapten atau pilot yang memimpin Sea King, bukan kopilot. Layanan aktifnya sebagai pilot pencarian dan penyelamatan RAF berakhir pada bulan September 2013. Ia melakukan 156 operasi pencarian dan penyelamatan, yang menghasilkan 149 orang yang diselamatkan. Ia kemudian menjadi pelindung Penerbangan Memorial Pertempuran Inggris. Pada bulan Juli 2015, William mulai bekerja penuh waktu sebagai pilot di [[East Anglian Air Ambulance]] (EAAA) yang bermarkas di Bandara Cambridge, yang menurutnya merupakan perkembangan alami dari peran pencarian dan penyelamatan sebelumnya. Ia menyumbangkan seluruh gajinya untuk badan amal EAAA. William diharuskan memiliki lisensi pilot sipil dan pelatihan lebih lanjut sebelum diizinkan untuk memulai perannya. Ia menjalani sebagian pelatihannya di Bandara Norwich. William menjelaskan bahwa ia bekerja dengan jadwal yang tidak teratur dan sebagian besar menangani kasus perawatan kritis. Ia juga membahas dampak dari menyaksikan trauma dan kesedihan yang mendalam terhadap kesehatan mental dan kehidupan pribadinya. BBC telah menulis bahwa William "terpapar Layanan Kesehatan Nasional dengan cara yang belum pernah dialami atau mungkin tidak akan pernah dialami oleh anggota kerajaan senior lainnya."
William meninggalkan jabatannya di EAAA pada bulan Juli 2017 untuk mengemban tugas kerajaan penuh waktu. Setelah mendukung kampanye ulang tahun untuk London's Air Ambulance Charity pada tahun 2019, ia menjadi pelindung resmi badan amal tersebut pada bulan Maret 2020. Pada bulan Mei 2020, ia memberikan izin kepada badan amal tersebut untuk menggunakan halaman pribadi Istana Kensington untuk mengisi bahan bakar selama pandemi [[COVID-19]]. Untuk memperingati Pekan Ambulans Udara 2020, ia menulis surat ucapan terima kasih kepada para pekerja ambulans udara, yang menyatakan "rasa hormat yang mendalam" kepada masyarakat, khususnya selama wabah yang "sangat sulit". Pada bulan Februari 2023, ia menjadi pelindung badan amal Wales Air Ambulance.
==Kehidupan Pribadi==
===Hubungan dengan Catherine Middleton===
[[File:William Catherine balcony wave.jpg|alt=29 April 2011: Prince and Princess wedding day|thumb|Bersama Catherine di balkon Istana Buckingham pada hari pernikahan mereka]]
Pada tahun 2001, William bertemu [[Catherine, Putri Wales|Catherine Middleton]], saat mereka menjadi mahasiswa di St Salvator's Hall, di [[Universitas St Andrews]], dan mereka menjadi sahabat karib. Catherine dilaporkan menarik perhatian William di peragaan busana amal di universitas tersebut pada tahun 2002 ketika ia muncul di panggung mengenakan gaun renda yang tembus pandang. Selama tahun kedua mereka, William berbagi flat dengan Middleton dan dua orang teman lainnya. Pasangan itu mulai berpacaran pada tahun 2003. Dari tahun 2003 hingga 2005, mereka berdua tinggal di Balgove House di kawasan Strathtyrum bersama dua orang teman sekamar. Pada tahun 2004, pasangan itu sempat berpisah tetapi segera menjalin hubungan kembali.
Hubungan mereka diikuti dengan saksama oleh pers tabloid. Perhatian media menjadi begitu intens sehingga William meminta pers untuk menjaga jarak dari Middleton. Pada bulan Desember 2006, Middleton dan keluarganya menghadiri parade kelulusan William di Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Pada bulan April 2007, William dan Middleton dilaporkan telah berpisah. Middleton dan keluarganya menghadiri Konser untuk Diana tiga bulan kemudian; pasangan itu kemudian dilaporkan telah "menghidupkan kembali hubungan mereka". Dia hadir dalam upacara prosesi Order of the Garter di [[Kastil Windsor]] pada bulan Juni 2008, di mana William diangkat menjadi Royal Knight of the Garter. Pada bulan Juni 2010 pasangan itu pindah ke sebuah pondok di Bodorgan Estate di [[Anglesey]], [[Wales]], tempat mereka tinggal hingga tahun 2014.
===Pernikahan dan Anak-Anak===
[[File:The Cambridges on the balcony.png|thumb|left|Bersama Catherine dan anak-anak mereka di [[Yubelium Platina Elizabeth II]] pada tahun 2022|alt=lihat keterangan]]
Pasangan itu bertunangan pada bulan Oktober 2010, di sebuah kabin pegunungan terpencil di Gunung [[Kenya]], selama perjalanan 10 hari ke Lewa Wildlife Conservancy untuk merayakan meninggalnya William dari kursus pencarian dan penyelamatan helikopter RAF. Clarence House mengumumkan pertunangan mereka pada tanggal 16 November. William memberikan tunangannya cincin pertunangan ibunya. Pernikahan itu berlangsung di Westminster Abbey pada tanggal 29 April 2011. Penonton global untuk pernikahan itu berkisar sekitar 300 juta, sedangkan 26 juta menonton acara tersebut secara langsung di Inggris saja. William dan Catherine menggunakan Nottingham Cottage sebagai rumah mereka di London hingga tahun 2013, ketika renovasi senilai £4,5 juta selesai di Apartemen 1A di Istana Kensington, yang terus menjadi kediaman resmi mereka di ibu kota. Pasangan itu diberi rumah pedesaan Anmer Hall, di [[Sandringham Estate]], sebagai hadiah pernikahan dari Ratu, tempat mereka tinggal dari tahun 2015 hingga 2017. Istana Kensington adalah tempat tinggal utama pasangan itu hingga tahun 2022, ketika keluarga itu pindah ke [[Adelaide Cottage]] di Windsor.
Kehamilan pertama Catherine diumumkan pada bulan Desember 2012. Ia dirawat pada tanggal 22 Juli 2013 di Lindo Wing, Rumah Sakit St Mary, London, tempat Pangeran William melahirkan. Kemudian pada hari itu, ia melahirkan [[Pangeran George dari Wales|Pangeran George]]. Pada bulan September 2014, diumumkan bahwa Catherine sedang hamil anak keduanya. Ia dirawat pada tanggal 2 Mei 2015 di rumah sakit yang sama tempat ia melahirkan [[Putri Charlotte dari Wales (kelahiran 2015)|Putri Charlotte]] pada hari yang sama. Kehamilan ketiga Catherine diumumkan pada bulan September 2017; [[Pangeran Louis dari Wales|Pangeran Louis]] lahir pada tanggal 23 April 2018. William dan Catherine memiliki dua anjing jenis English Cocker Spaniel, bernama Lupo dan Orla.
