PRINCE: NEW DOCCIE HIGHLIGHTS WILLIAM'S WORK TO HOME THE HOMELESS - ON HIS LAND
If there's a Will, there's a way

A documentary with rare behind-the-scenes access to Prince William as his philanthropic foundation works to reduce homelessness premiered yesterday in the UK, ahead of a wider streaming release today.

The two-part film, which follows the Prince of Wales during the first year of his Homewards initiative tackling homelessness, is the latest departure from the stiff formality of traditional UK royal public relations.

Granted unprecedented access, the documentary team's advance clips show the heir to the throne sharing the impact of visiting a homeless shelter as a child with his late mother, Princess Diana, and brother Prince Harry.

"I had never been to anything like that before and I was a bit anxious just what to expect," he recalls on-screen.

"My mother went about her usual art of making everyone feel relaxed and having a laugh and joking with everyone.

"I remember having some good conversations... that's when it dawned on me that there are other people out there who don't have the same life as you do."
