(latest William)
Prince William -- teen age heart-throb and heir to the thone -- seems to
have inherited not only his mother's good looks, but her quirkiness too.
(mirror front)
Now, according to at least one newspaper here, he wants to go where no
one in his position has gone before -- to America. And whether that's a
real possibility or not -- America... at least some of it... seems to
want him.
(SOT Atoosa Rubenstein -- Editor - Cosmo Girl)
AMERICANS ARE GOING TO BE SO EXCITED TO HAVE PRINCE WILLIAM ON THEIR
SOIL. EVERYBODY WANTS TO TAKE CARE OF HIM. HE'S SO GORGEOUS.
(William at St Andrews?)
Yes... well... but if it's some semblance of privacy that William is
seeking after he finishes his university course in Scotland, would New
York really be the place? Already the prince, who turns twenty one next
month, is getting plenty of unsolicited advice.
(SOT Donald Trump)
- THE MEDIA WOULD LOVE HIM. HE'S A GREAT LOOKING GUY. HE'S SMART.
HE'S COMES FROM NICE PARENTS. HE'S GOT A LOT GOING FOR HIM, PROBABLY
MORE THAN ANYBODY.
(Buckingham Palace/William)
The plan -- according to un-named palace sources quoted by the Sunday
Mirror -- would be for William to take a post graduate business degree
or work one of the big art auction houses. They're worthy enough
ambitions for a royal heir, but not the traditional road to the throne.
Certainly not the one followed by his father.
PRINCE CHARLES IS KEEN FOR HIM TO GO INTO THE ARMED FORCES BECAUSE IT
PRESENTS THE KIND OF DISCIPLINE THAT YOU CAN'T GET ANYWHERE ELSE AND ITS
VERY GOOD TRAINING REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU WANT TO DO IT FOR THE REST
OF YOUR LIFE OR NOT. 04 28
(Stills of William horsing around with Kate Middleton?)
But discipline may not be at the heart of Prince William's current
agenda. He is, after all, near... perhaps at... the top of the eligible
bachelor list. Friends are quoted as saying the girl he's been seen
horsing around with -- Kate Middleton -- is just a friend. He could
have a lot of friends in New York.
(SOT Atoosa Rubenstein)
PRINCE WILLIAM COMING TO THE US MEANS THAT MILLIONS AND MILLIONS AND
GIRLS HAVE A CHANCE AT BEING THE NEXT QUEEN OF ENGLAND. THAT'S PRETTY
AMAZING, AN AMERICAN QUEEN OF ENGLAND.
Probably too amazing -- actually. Still, it could be fun for awhile.
(SOT Ingrid Seward)
WILLIAM IS NOT GOING TO FROLIC AROUND IN PUBLIC WITH SOMEONE THAT'S HIS
GIRLFRIEND, HE'S FAR TOO CANNY TO DO THAT, HE'S MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE
SEEN IN PUBLIC WITH SOMEONE WHO ISN'T HIS GIRLFRIEND.
(Diana)
And, of course, it's impossible to talk about William without a mention
of his mother. So here it is. Diana, too was often said to crave the
alleged anonymity that New York supposedly might offer. She never got
to do it. Her son has time to think about it.
(William)
He doesn't graduate until the summer of two-thousand-and-five. Until
then he can consider all the advice he's already getting.
(SOT Ed Koch -- former Mayor of NY)
I'd tell "Willy", get a job in city government, you'd love it. (looks
into the camera) You'd absolutely love it. It's the pinnacle of jobs
here in NYC.
And it's not like he'll need the money. William will inherit the first
lump of his fortune next month too -- about five million dollars. MP
