ウィリアム王子:
病院前でお披露目の時の気持ちを聞かれ、
「ジョージを見たいって思ってくれる人たちに、子供を見せるのは、ハッピーな事で、どの親もそうだと思うけどね、自分の子が一番可愛くて、全てにおいて最高!って思うよねえ」
「でも、とにかく彼が叫びまくらなくてよかったよ」
「ジョージはちょっと、わんぱくだよ、ずっと動き回ろうとして、あまり寝ようとしないんだ、それがちょっと問題だね」
「キャサリンほどではないけど、僕もあまり寝れなかったよ」
「僕にとって、キャサリンとジョージ、そしてルポ、が最優先なんだ」
などなど・・・・・
感動しちゃうセリフばかり♥
ホント、ミドルトン家といて、誰もプリンス扱いせず、やれやれとけしかけながら
楽しくやってもらってる感じが感じ取れる・・・・
そして、この経験で、自分でもハッキリ、
変わったと言い切った王子
出産を二人(&ベイビー)で共にガンバったのも大きいでしょうし、
やはり、良いパパを作るのはママの腕?なんでしょうなあ。
ますますいい顔になったウィリアム!

"Prince William's Passion: New Father, New Hope" premieres
on CNN on September 15 at 10:00 p.m. ET.

London (CNN) -- He may be the future king of
Britain, but for now Prince George of Cambridge is just a little
"rascal" according to his proud father Prince William.
Sitting in his garden at
Kensington Palace on a warm summer day, the Duke of Cambridge, second in
line to the British throne, told CNN that George is already quite a
character in his first official interview since the birth in London on
July 22.
"He's a little bit of a
rascal, I'll put it that way," William told CNN's Max Foster. "He either
reminds me of my brother or me when I was younger, I'm not sure, but
he's doing very well at the moment."
"He's growing quite
quickly actually. But he's a little fighter -- he wriggles around quite a
lot and he doesn't want to go to sleep that much."
William said his wife
Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, has been handling more of the night
duties with baby George -- and admitted he's looking forward to going
back to his job as a Royal Air Force search-and-rescue pilot in order to
catch up on some much-needed sleep.
"Well, as a few fathers
might know, I'm actually quite looking forward to going back to work
(to) get some sleep. So I'm just hoping the first few shifts I go back I
don't have any night jobs."
William, dressed casually
in blue jeans and a polo shirt, laughed as he described the moment he
and Catherine appeared on the steps at the Lindo Wing of St. Mary's
Hospital in London to show baby George to the world for the first time.
Prince William said: "I
think more shock was the feeling I felt, but I was on such a high
anyway, and so was Catherine, about George that really we were happy to
show him off to whoever wanted to see him."
"As any new parent
knows, you're only too happy to show off your new child and, you know,
proclaim that he is the best looking or the best everything.
‘Again it’s not somewhere I enjoy being, [but] I know that the position I’m in… that’s what’s required of me to do. It's nice that people want to see George -- I'm just glad he wasn't screaming his head off the whole way through," he said with a laugh.

Fathers around the world
watched in disbelief as William, surrounded by hundreds of press
photographers, deftly secured his son's car seat in the back of his
vehicle on the first try -- but the prince admitted there was more than
luck involved in the maneuver.
"Believe, me it wasn't
my first time," William said, "and I know there's been some speculation
about that. I had to practice, I really did -- I was terrified it was
going to fall off or the door wasn't going to close properly."
While the pictures of
William climbing behind the wheel and driving his young family home from
the hospital may have reinforced perceptions that he'll bring a more
modern approach to Britain's monarchy, the future king told CNN it was
simply more about doing things his way.
He said: "I am as
independent as I want to be, same as Catherine and Harry. We've all
grown up differently to other generations and I very much feel if that I
can do it myself, I want to do it myself."
"There are times where
you can't do it yourself and the system takes over, or it's appropriate
to do things differently. But I think driving your son and your wife
away from hospital was really important to me.And I don’t like fuss so it’s much easier to just do it yourself."
Asked by Mr Foster if he was sending a message to the world, he replies: ‘I think so, and I’m just doing it the way I know this, you know, if it’s the right way then brilliant, if it’s not, if it’s the wrong way then I’ll try to do it better , but…no I just, I’m quite…I’m reasonably headstrong about what I believe in, and what I go for, and I’ve got fantastic people around me who give me great support and advice.’
And he jokes: ‘And I didn’t stall! It’s an automatic so it’s alright.’

And he jokes: ‘And I didn’t stall! It’s an automatic so it’s alright.’
While the future king
may have prevailed on the issue of driving his family home, he says he
was less successful at avoiding that hallowed tradition of new
parenthood: changing the first diaper.
‘But, um he’s uh, no, he’s uh, he’s doing very well at the moment. He’s, he does like to keep having his nappy changed.’
William confirms he changed his son’s first nappy and describes it as being a nerve-wracking experience despite all his public training.

"I did the first nappy,
it's a badge of honor," he joked. "I wasn't allowed to get away with
that. I had every midwife staring at me, saying: 'You do it, you do
it.'"
‘But, uh, no, he’s, he’s a little, he’s growing quite quickly actually. But he’s a little fighter. He kind of, he wriggles around quite a lot. And he doesn’t want to go to sleep that much, which is a little bit of a problem…’
‘So you’re up a little bit at night?’ Mr Foster asks.
‘A little bit. Not as much as Catherine. But, um, you know, she’s doing a fantastic job [she’s doing] very well,’ the prince says.
As a lot of people know who have got dogs
and bringing new-born back, they take a little bit of time to adapt,
but, no he’s been all right so far.
‘He’s been slobbering sort of around the house a bit, so he’s perfectly happy.’

‘A little bit. Not as much as Catherine. But, um, you know, she’s doing a fantastic job [she’s doing] very well,’ the prince says.
"For me, Catherine and
now little George are my priorities -- and Lupo,‘He’s
coping all right, actually." the prince said with a
smile. Thankfully Lupo, the couple's Cocker Spaniel, seems to be on
board with the new addition to the family.
‘He’s been slobbering sort of around the house a bit, so he’s perfectly happy.’
The prince said last
week that he will miss living on the Welsh island of Anglesey when his
three-year tour as an RAF pilot there comes to an end next month.
One of William's great
passions is saving endangered species in Africa. He told CNN he wants
George to experience the same Africa he saw as a young man and spark a
passion for preserving the unique wildlife there, much as his father,
Prince Charles, did with him.
Mr Foster says: ‘You talked about your father possibly whispering [sweet nothings] quietly in your ear as a young boy. Are you going to do the same for Prince George because it’s such, it’s a cause that you care so deeply about. Would you like him to pick up on it?
William replies: ‘Probably. At this rate I’ll probably whisper sweet nothings in his ear. I’ll have toy elephants and rhinos around the room. We’ll cover it in sort of, you know, lots of bushes and things like that. Make him grow up as if he’s in the bush.’

In the meantime, William
said the possibility of his son carrying on the royal family's legacy
in Africa isn't an immediate concern.
"At the moment, the only
legacy I want to pass on to him is to sleep more and maybe not have to
change his nappy so many times," he laughed.
And like any new mother or father, the future monarch said he was surprised and amazed by parenthood so far.
"The last few weeks for
me have been a very different emotional experience, something I never
thought I would feel myself. And I find, again it's only been a short
period, but a lot of things affect me differently now."
