Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 24 Oct, 08:57 · Archive

Prince William told The Graham Norton Show he dreamed of becoming a policeman or DJ as a child.

Prince William appeared on The Graham Norton Show on 23 October alongside Cate Blanchett, Robert Irwin and Hannah Waddingham. During the BBC chat show, the Prince of Wales spoke about alternative career paths he imagined as a child.

When asked whether he had ever imagined a different career if he had not been born into the Royal Family, Prince William revealed two surprising childhood ambitions. He said he wanted to be a policeman when younger, believing he would have been good at it. He also went through a phase where he wanted to be a DJ, giving himself the stage name 'DJ Xara with an X', which he acknowledged 'didn't go very well'.

Prince William also discussed being mistaken for the American singer Prince and recalled an amusing encounter during a visit to Somerset. He spoke about meeting Taylor Swift and his enjoyment of watching The Celebrity Traitors.
