Prince William is reportedly keen for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis to have an upbringing unlike his own.

Prince William is determined for his children to experience a different life to the one he had growing up, a body language expert has claimed.

Both William and his brother Prince Harry have voiced their own accounts of their shared childhood, including expressing how they felt witnessing the breakdown of their parents’ marriage and, eventually, their divorce.

Just one year after their highly-publicised divorce, the late Princess Diana was killed in a car crash in Paris in August 1997.

It later emerged that King Charles had persuaded his sons to walk behind their late mother’s coffin at her funeral just days after her death, with William expressing the pressure of the royal protocols.

Following the release of the new Father’s Day image, which shows William posing with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, one expert suggests that he is now determined to make sure their upbringings are very different to his own.

Speaking to the Mirror, body language expert Judi James said: “The contrast between William’s choice of pose to illustrate his own view of fatherhood and the pose he chose to celebrate his own father’s role in his life could hardly be stronger, suggesting that although he appreciates the kind of upbringing he had, he is determined to forge something different for his own children.”

Further explaining, she adds that William appears to want a more “modern” upbringing for George, 10, Charlotte, nine, and Louis, six.

According to Ms James, this is shown through images such as the one released for Father’s Day.

She said: “William continually shows how he uses lessons from his past to forge the kind of family unit he sees as more modern and more ideal.

“His understanding of duty and loyalty seems strong but he is clearly also determined to create a more casual and playful life for his own children than he or his father were allowed to enjoy.”
