Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, are seen by many royal fans as very responsible people. Their behavior is always on point. However, Prince Harry always had the reputation of being the little bad apple in the family.
Meghan Markle‘s husband cultivated a “bad boy” persona in his youth. This led to many scandals and terrible headlines.
This image still follows Prince Harry to this day. By marrying Markle, a divorcée, and leaving the royal life behind, the father of two confirmed what many people always felt; he dances to his own rhythm.
However, what is less known, is the fact that his older brother, Prince William, also had a lot of fun in his youth. The future king of England made less noise, but traces of that era still exist.

A viral clip that surfaced on TikTok last week is reminding people that William and Kate partied hard in their 20s before getting married in 2011.
The video featuring the Cambridges when they were younger was seen over 5 million times on the social media platform. The new clip shows the couple having a lot of fun with friends.
It is clear that alcohol was involved, and they appear slightly drunk in some of the images. The always-photogenic Duchess of Cambridge kept some form of composure in most of them.
Many commenters do not see anything wrong with the clip. The images make the royal couple even more relatable than before.
However, a few critics do say if Prince Harry or Meghan Markle were doing the same thing, a scandal would erupt. These people believe that there is a double standard in the way the two siblings are treated in the media.
Fans of the Sussexes say that “Megxit” is still making a lot of noises two tears later, and the couple cannot get fair treatment. Others have pointed out that William and Kate looked happier.
When talking to Oprah Winfrey last year, the Duke of Sussex said William is trapped in the monarchy. He added: “My father and my brother, they are trapped. They don’t get to leave. And I have huge compassion for that.”
William and Kate met and started dating while at St. Andrews University in Scotland in 2002. They split in 2007 and got engaged in 2010.
The big wedding took place the year after. William and Kate have been together for more or less 20 years and are parents to Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4.
The Duke of Cambridge once said in an interview that their friendship is the foundation of their relationship.
He explained: “When I first met Kate, I knew there was something very special about her, and then I knew there was possibly something I wanted to explore there, but we ended up being friends for a while.”
He continued: “That was a good sort of foundation. I do genuinely believe now that being friends with [each other] is a massive advantage.”
Observers say that this video should lead to more understanding between William and Harry supporters. They might have chosen different paths, but they do have quite a lot in common.
