Prince Charles’ Important Causes Used To Be ‘Cranky,’ Public Perception Changed After This

Prince Charles has been doing a wonderful job as the heir to the throne and future king of Britain.

During a recent interview with Daily Mail, filmmaker John Bridcut said that the public perception towards the Prince of Wales has changed and improved throughout the years. In the past, people saw the causes that he was supporting as cranky, but they have eventually become more widely accepted.

“That difficult period after Diana’s death sort of colored things for quite a while. I think what has changed is the perception that he [Charles] works incredibly hard at causes that a lot of people have come around to,” he said.

The filmmaker also mentioned Prince Charles’ passion for climate change, corporate social responsibility, urban design, and more. The dad of two has worked so hard to promote all of the causes close to his heart and this is what earned him respect from the public.

Bridcut also said that he was surprised to know that a lot of Prince Charles’ fans and supporters are the youth. During his previous walkabout, the filmmaker saw a lot of students waiting for the future King’s arrival. He initially thought that he would see more adults in Durham with their children. But the students were there without their parents or guardians.

The students were also delighted to talk to Prince Charles especially since he’s very easy to engage with. Bridcut said that this is one of his strengths.

“I think that’s one of his strengths, which is gradually percolating through that he is much more at ease talking to people he doesn’t know than a lot of royals are. He always aims to find a connection with people that he meets,” he said.

And the filmmaker also heard how some students gushed overseeing the future king. At present, Prince Charles is no longer viewed as the Queen’s son but as the future sovereign.
