Prince William may avoid making revelations about his personal life and especially the problems he faces, but recently decided to make the exception and speaking to Time to Walk, the Apple podcast referred to his battle with depression, as well as in his life with his mother.
Speaking about his past depression due to the fact that he witnessed a tragic accident in which he tried to help a small injured boy and failed, he said: “Clearly there are some things in life that you do not want to see. The parents were in a state of hysteria, as one can imagine, screaming, mourning, not knowing what to do, in real agony. And that’s up to you. I went home that night quite upset, but not visibly. I was not crying, but internally, I felt that something had changed. I felt some kind of real tension inside me. It was like someone put the key in a lock and opened it, without giving permission for it. I felt like everyone was dying. You feel that everyone is in pain, that everyone is suffering. “I have never experienced it like this before.”
The prince then added that everything was fine in his personal life, but he wondered why he felt so unhappy. “I began to realize that you take home the trauma of people and sadness and that affects you.”
Beyond that, William made a rare reference to his childhood. “Younger ones, Harry and I went to a boarding school. And our mother used to play all kinds of songs to relieve some of the stress of going back to school. One of the songs that I still have today – and I enjoy secretly – is “The Best” by Tina Turner. We were sitting in the back seat, singing and it was like a real family moment. And my mother, who was driving, sang as loud as she could. Even the policeman in the car sometimes sang. “When I hear it now, he takes me back to those journeys by car and brings back many memories of his mother.”
