Everything Prince William Has Said About Navigating the U.K. Media: ‘I Wouldn’t Believe Everything You Read in the Paper’

alking the line. Prince William has always had a complicated relationship with the U.K. media after growing up in the limelight — but he very rarely discusses it.

The Prince of Wales knows that being in the public eye comes with his royal duty. But, unlike his brother, Prince Harry, who has claimed on numerous occasions that the U.K. press hounded his family and wife Meghan Markle, William has been much more tight-lipped about his experiences.

“To see this institutional gaslighting … They were happy to lie to protect my brother,” Harry alleged of The Firm and the press in a December 2022 first look at volume 2 of Netflix’s Harry & Meghan. “They were never willing to tell the truth to protect us.”

The former military pilot — who stepped back from his senior royal duties in 2020 — has pointed fingers at his family and the media for allowing Meghan to be berated and attacked from the moment the pair began dating.

Meghan, for her part, claimed in the Netflix teaser that the couple was “fed to the wolves” following their May 2018 nuptials.

William, who is second in line to the British throne, doesn’t appear to share all of his sibling’s same grievances with the U.K. press. He has, however, spoken out in support of his loved ones, including wife Princess Kate, when the media has overstepped in the past.

In January 2007, William made a rare public gesture to protect his then-girlfriend, asking the press to “stop” harassing the fellow University of St. Andrews alum. “The situation is proving unbearable for all those concerned,” the statement read via Kensington Palace.

When the couple got engaged in fall 2010, William told ITV News that he was “massively” protective of Kate. He noted that he chose to wait to propose in case she wanted to “back out” amid all of the pressure that comes with being a royal.

“The people around home are very supportive [of] us. Those are the people that really matter to us,” the Princess of Wales said at the time when asked about how she dealt with the scrutiny. “You can only be true to yourself. You sort of have to ignore a lot of what’s said. You have to be yourself.” (The couple tied the knot in April 2011 and have since welcomed three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.)

More than a decade later, William slammed BBC for allowing unethical tactics to be used in coercing his late mother, Princess Diana, to give her infamous 1995 Panorama interview. The tell-all unveiled secrets about the royals and featured Diana giving rare comments about her ex-husband King Charles III’s affair with Queen Consort Camilla.

“It is my view that the deceitful way the interview was obtained substantially influenced what my mother said,” the future king of England said in a May 2021 statement. “The interview was a major contribution to making my parents’ relationship worse and has since hurt countless others.”

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...
