The Prince of Wales has laid his attempt to take a title currently belonging to The Queen.
Prince William is the guest editor the current Country Life magazine, one of the best selling weeklies in the UK.
He’s the latest in a long line of royals to have put their stamp on the magazine, which has been published for over a century.
The most recent was Queen Camilla who took the helm in 2022 to mark her 75th birthday that July.
That edition became the best selling in the magazine’s history and now Prince William is vying to take that crown.
The heir to the throne has spent six months working on this special copy and has revealed several secrets in its pages including how he almost gave visitors to Highgrove more than they expected when it was his home in his younger years.
William shared that he had to remember to draw the curtains when getting ready as the path taken by visitors to the home in Gloucestershire was very close to his bedroom windows and he didn’t want to be seen changing.
The magazine also looks at issues close to Prince William’s heart with a spotlight on supporting mental health for those living and working in the countryside where loneliness and isolation arise more often.
There is also a feature on helping women in the armed forces feel more supported, with the magazine coming out on Armistice Day.
And the Princess of Wales gives an interview to the magazine about the importance she has placed on being out in nature, especially as she was treated for cancer.
Meanwhile, Prince George has shown he’s following in his parents’ footsteps with a passion for nature – he’s drawn a kingfisher to be featured in his dad’s edition.
HRH The Prince of Wales guest edit edition of Country Life magazine is on sale from November 11.
