Through the Years: Prince William Photos

Prince William of Wales was born on June 21, 1982, as the first son of Princess Diana and Prince Charles — and second in line to be king. On holidays with his mother and at playtime with younger brother Prince Harry, William became an instant favorite subject for the paparazzi to snap. As the precious prince turned into a teen heartthrob, young fans around the world made Prince William’s face as famous as that of any boy band-er or Hollywood hunk of the late '90s/early '00s. Today, Prince William only has to walk down a shop-lined street in the U.K. or Google “royal wedding memorabilia” to see his likeness alongside bride-to-be Kate Middleton’s on everything from coins to condoms!
