Prince William 2003 interview

Prince William agreed to give the press an interview to mark the half-way stage of his studies at St Andrew's University - and one to mark his 21st birthday on 21st June 2003.

This was the interview to mark the completion of two years at St Andrew's.

"People here just treat me like everyone else. It’s really nice. I’m able to lead a near-normal life because of a combination of reasons really.

"The media have been very good considering, I’m sure how tantalising it is having me up here. And the people of St Andrews and the students themselves have been so supportive. So, basically, I feel very comfortable.

“My tutors and lecturers have been very considerate and have just let me get on.

“They know I’ll come to them if I’ve got any problems.

“I try to attend as many lectures as I can but inevitably there are times when I never make them for lots of reasons. But I go to all my tutorials.
