Prince William's unscripted and witty response to Diana's advice on first day of school
Prince William was given some wise words by Princess Diana.To put his mind at ease, Princess Di gave the five-year-old Duke of Cambridge a few words of wisdom to set his mind at ease before his first day.Diana, along with Prince Charles, accompanied their eldest son in the car to drop him off at Wetherby Prep School in Notting Hill, London.The Mirror reports that before the five-year-old Prince was sent off to school, Diana gave him a quick pep talk to prepare him for what was to come.Ken Wharfe, a former bodyguard to Prince William and Harry, said: "Diana said to him in the car, 'When you get to school there are going to be lots of media and lots of photographers, you've got to behave yourself."You're going to get this for the rest of your life.'"The Duke of Cambridge allegedly made a few cheeky marks to the photographers on the street outside of his school, The Mirror reported.If the sage advice weren't enough, the young Prince's reply was priceless.Wharfe said: "William turned around and said something which was extraordinary."The prince, according to Wharfe, said: "Don't like 'tographers," but still gave them a small wave before he walked into his first day at school.Kate Middleton also had touching words for her daughter Charlotte on the first day of school, whispering some words of encouragement before the Duchess' young daughter headed through the school doors.
