British future monarch William has finally expressed his feelings about his children's future, revealing the biggest fear of his life in the latest interview amid ongoing crisis.

The Prince of Wales, who's set to attend the Earthshot Awards ceremony in Brazil for his global environmental initiative later this week, did not hesitate to reveal how he sees the future of the children in his bombshell chat.

William's interview comes days after his uncle Andrew's downfall and the Palace's announcement of striping him of his titles and honours. The former duke, in his statement, has already stated to give up his title.

However, he remained reluctant to speak of Andrew's controversies as the interview was not planned to discuss personal grievances or crisis. 

The father of three revealed he wants to protect his and Kate's three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - from unexpected adversities.

He is indeed worried about all the kids on the planet, including Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, who live in Montecito with their parents Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

He went on to warn that children will inherit if the planet's most pressing environmental challenges aren't tackled.

In exclusive chat with HELLO!, the heir to the British throne claims he wants his children to 'grow up surrounded by nature.'

He fears that Prince George, Charlotte, and Louis may not have the same opportunities that he had unless speedy changes are made to safeguard the environment.

The royal stressed that it is concerns for his children’s future that drive him to keep working on the global initiative to make the planet’s safe fo the next generation.

He said: 'As a father, I think constantly about the world my children will inherit. I want them to grow up surrounded by nature, opportunity, and a sense of hope about the future. But I also know that unless we act boldly now, that future is at risk.'

Prince William, who opened his Earthshot Prize in October 2020, headed to Rio de Janeiro, where this year event will take place on Wednesday, November 5.
