He’s not hidden. He has been in attendance at significant public events. But beyond that, he’s a kid and a schoolboy and at this stage of his life, he needs a normal and private life. His parents, despite their public prominence, want this for their children very much.
I agree, but, James is a Royal Duke in waiting and an Earl in his own right (now that Prince Edward and Sophie are the Duke and Duchess of Edenborough,) so I expect his prominence will elevate at some point of his life, and soon (even though the King wants a "slimmed" down monarchy.) James had already attended his first (if not more) official royal engagement, as mentioned in the video.
@@XRos28James is not a Royal Duke in waiting since KCIII decided that the Duke of Edinburgh title will not be hereditary. That said, perhaps cousin William will give James a Dukedom. I personally want him and his sister to use their HRH and Prince/Princess titles and become working royals. :)
@@danielc2729 Where can I find the official statement about the Hereditary part/or lack thereof of it? Personally, I wish the old way would return, from what I know there are 23 non-royal Dukes/Duchesses remaining. I like the 18th and 19th way of titles in place. I understand why that slim down Royalty came to be (the cost in a difficult times), but I liked the full family to be in a status of "working Royals", and I do mean working, for the people, NOT just of the people. From what I understand, the U.K. Royals bring money in, it's not just a waste, but a national symbol and pride (or at least, should be, all the divorces and disloyalties, should be dealt with, not swept away, or ignored.) Sorry for the MUCH too long post...
This family unit is the only unbroken one of the Queen's four children. I think Edward and Sophie have done a fine job in raising these two attractive, seemingly well-grounded young people. James is a good-looking young man, and he appears serious and intelligent. He will be a true contributor to British society whatever he chooses for his life's work.
Agree. Edward chose very well. Also Edward kicked his heels up young, got it all out of his system, then married. Edward dropped out of military service, he only did a year. It wasn't for him. Then he wanted to be an actor. He got it out of his system.
But does he really? He was forced into bestowing the dukedom on his brother, he just didn’t want to do it. It was the binding promise of his parents that obliged him to go ahead.
@@dbertobis The King wasn't forced. The Duke title was always supposed to go to Edward after their father's death. After the appropriate year of mourning, the title was dutifully bestowed at an appropriate time.
@@dbertobisLoL Charles shouldn't be a b!t#ch About it. Being a KING doesn't make him a "SUPERHUMAN" He's a king With responsibilities ffs like any other but he Serves his country and people. Since Prince Philip passed away it's only right that CHARLES gives the "Duke" title to His sibling
His parents are the only children of the Queen not divorced. And their children are the most normal. Well done Edward & Sophie. He is a handsome , graceful young man who will succeed at anything he chooses to do.
You say that but honestly nobody but them knows what they are really like. The quiet ones often have the most secrets. I'm not saying they do, just that they could. Whenever there's a serial killer or a family who's found to be abusing their children the neighbors always say " but they were such nice, quiet, polite people!"
In the years to come, the lovely young James will become a heart-throb to both girls and to boys, who will all fall madly in love with him - imagine if he did turn out to be gay and he wanted to find his handsome Prince Charming? When I was much younger, I fell madly in love with both Princes William and Harry in thier teenage years
Sophie and Edward are the BEST. Wonderful parents bringing up their children so beautifully. Exemplary parents and perfect children. God Bless your family.♥️🇦🇺
I’d love to see him become a full-time working royal. Younger members at the “front lines” are desperately needed, and James is very handsome, appears to have an appreciation of dignity and protocol, and has a _glorious_ smile 🙂(though it is seldom seen during these teenage years; he appears to be a bit camera-shy which is to his credit and will be overcome in due time.) I think he has the potential to be a great asset to the family.
@@rogerfielding1117 I suspect there are some people in whose opinion even one royal personage is too many ;-). And my goodness, what an economic boost would be accomplished by stopping the influx of illegal migrants! To those who _do_ see value in a vibrant monarchy, I'd suggest that if expenses need to be reduced, there are better ways to achieve that than whittling down the number of working members of the royal family to close to zero. I very much hope to be seeing Prince Edward's son and daughter taking on a public role as time goes on.
@@christinepaige2575 reasonable point but I do think that the King's viewpoint is that the Monarchy is bigger than cutting ribbons and unveiling plaques or shaking hands or waving from the back seat of a car and more about hands on work with charities etc. In short less grandstanding and more substance, because he can see that without change the Monarchy becomes distant and irrelevant and I support him in that
I think the idea of James becoming a working royal is a very good idea. He is a bridge in age between Prince George and his father Prince William, and by the time James is old enough, some of the now working royals may well have retired from public life. William and Kate can't be everywhere, and until their children become of age, there needs to be some members of the family who can step up and help out. James would be an ideal candidate if you ask me.
Surely this will depend on what he wants to do , he has no title beyond an Earldom (Wessex) of a county that doesn't even exist. If he any sense he do well at school and pursue a worthwhile career
You mean they'd just use him to prop the institution up until the Princes come of age, stuff that for a game of soldiers. I hope he gets a job and earns his living like the York girls do
James is a young man and I hope people will respect him and let him be a great young man. James has a lot of potential and knowledge. Remember he has a lot of respect and kindness with wonderful parents being always with their children.
It is a good idea of Edward and Sophie to keep their children out of the lime light. The Earl and Duchess obviously must be well grounded and much loved. I love the family.
James could become a major asset to the RF if he becomes a working Royal. He is handsome, educated, young, and knowledgeable of Royal protocol. Edward and Sophie should be proud of their children.
He is becoming a very handsome gentlemen. As is Lady Louis is becoming a very beautiful lady. They are very grounded and humble human beings. Awesome job Edward and Sophie. Remarkable parents. . . . God bless them. . . .🥰
I always wondered if when he was very young if he had some health or behavioral issues that they kept away from public view. But after the Queen's funeral, we all saw how wonderfully he did, and I hope we get to see much more of him as time goes on. He is a beautiful, well-mannered boy!
One has to like Edward, Sophie, Louise and James. Unlike many of their relatives, they seemed to have mastered holding the media at bay, fulfilling their royal duties, acting like regular people, and preserving their sanity all at the same time!
As the youngest sibling he probably had the best of his parents time and attention. When the King and Anne were young their parents were often away on foreign trips that lasted for months on end

@@511robyno He also doesn't have the jealousy that Andrew had. Andrew always resented being younger than Charles. He tried to promote William over Charles later on. Edward I think is far enough removed from the possibility of the throne that it didn't seem to cause him the same problems. He seemed more adrift when he was young than anything else. He wanted to make his own way with the production company but had no real ability to make it happen on his own. I think Elizabeth and Phillip were pretty awful parents all around, even as she was a good queen. That family was not functional at any level. It's not done them any favors in the longrun. I suspect the generations preceding them were just as bad but modern media has opened all of this up to much more scrutiny.
He is not hidden,he is there when needed otherwise he is doing what young people do collage ex... He is quite young man like his father,so is his sister,they are kept from the limelight,will be good to see what his future role will be
You are a handsome family. In Australia. We call it the quiet achiever s not the hidden ones. You all do things quietly and you go about doing important things without no one knowing about it. You have beautiful looking children and I like you Sophie and Edward. God bless you and your family. Gabriel Wood ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really wish he would take a role as a working royal. He would be much needed and looks smart. He is going to be a heartrob one day very soon. I wish Lady Louise would also be a working royal. She seems to be very articulate and intelligent.
He is going to be a heartbreaker. Always loved that family. Quiet, not self-serving and just got on with the job. The Royals would be fools not to let him have Royal duties. But then again its his life.
His Parents have done the right thing. I would suppose that James, Earl of Wessex will choose a University and he may or may not spend some time in one of the military services, most likely the Navy. But who knows? We just have to sit back and watch this young Royal develop and engage as he wants to not as the general public expects.
The Duke and Dutches of Edinburgh do not hide either of their children. They are an exceptionally ‘normal family’ as far as their duties will allow. Sophie was very close to the late Queen Elizabeth. I have personally seen the family at Sandringham (I live 10 mins away), and they are very approachable and friendly without any snobbery at all. I’m sure as James and his sister Louise get older we will see them blossom in to well rounded adults.I for one, look forward to seeing them and all the royal children doing the same.
I absolutely love the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and their children . Hopefully when William, Prince of Wales becomes a King he’ll ask Lady Louise and the Earl of Wessex to be part of his royal court as well ask Zara and her brother Peter, Lady Chatto children , who are two handsome young men and of course Lady Gabriella too. If he does that his court would be strong with highly intelligent well educated royals and they would served him well .
He’s grown up to be a nice looking boy seems very quite not loud or boisterous . In fact both the Wessex children would be an asset to the RF both are intelligent and respecting of others. Sophie and Edward have done a great job with both their children.
The Wales are going to Australia to apologize for Megain’s abhorrent behaviours. Please note that Sophie worked in Public Relations, the King is quite aware of his royal assets and he will use them in due course.
Louise and her brother do hold the titles of Prince and Princess because of their direct blood line from their father. Sophie has always said it was up to them when older if they wanted to use them.
James, the Viscount Severn has now inherited his father's title of Earl. The Crown is the only one to dispense these family titles, namely: Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount and Baron. When you see James wearing medals, they are his grandfathers war medals.
No, they are his medals, awarded by the late Queen to all members of the family to mark 50th, 60th and 70th Jubilees. He was awarded the 60th and 70th. If you wear anyone else's medals it is on the right breast. Other European monarchies also create dukedoms, grand dukedoms, comptes and marquis titles too. People are easily confused so please don't add to their confusion by disinformation
James seems too shy to be in the spotlight. He will get a job and you won't hear much about him. He had a major growth spurt in one year. Sophie and Edward are doing a great job in raising both James and Louise.
I understood that James has had problems with autism which is why he was moved to Eagle House school, a specialist school for children with this conditon - it is an excellent school.
I hope that both Lady Louise and James become working royals in some time, as I believe that they will be necessary in the reign of William and possibly the reign of George.
He’s the youngest grandchild of HMQEII. he is involved in every engagement and event his parents bring him to. His impeccable behavior makes him unnoticeable,but he certainly is very much a part of the RF. Way better than Harry btw.
P. Edward and Sophie made the right choice in not giving their children titles and giving them a sense of normalcy in life cuz it isn’t all roses with being raised as a royal. Lots of pressure.
The Royal Family is already very "slim", given the facts that both Andrew and Harry are no longer active royals and the rest of the family is getting older every day. It would indeed be to HM The King's advantage, as well as to The UK's, that both Louise and James are made HRH"s and Princes of The Blood Royal and take on full royal responsibilities.
@@chrispavlich9656 I know that Lady Louise is 20 years old now and she chose not to use style HRH and the title of Princess. It’s quite possible that James, Earl of Wessex may follow his sister’s example but we’ll just have to wait and see.
I don't think it's fair that princes children can be HRH but princesses children can't. This is 2023 nearly 2024 and men still have prominence over women!!! Equality for all.
Just allow him to develop into the person he truly is or who he will become. Please let him mature and respect his dignity whilst he is finding himself.
It would be nice if the Edinburgh children become princess and prince when they reach the age of 21. If Meghan's two are prince and princess then these two really should be too, and they are both entitled to it being grandchildren of QE II.
Both Charlie and Willie Windsor's climate and energy policy activism along with Charlie's support and complicity with the WEF doom the monarchy and the sooner that the British public wake up to this nonsense and stop paying for it the better. They have to GO! They're all just going to have to earn a living through their own efforts just like everyone else and that will be that! That is James's future - the same as the rest of us!
I hope he will do something in his life: not course like philosophy, geography, history of art, english, etc… for ounce, can we see something like sciences, law, health…
I wish James and louise use their official titles (HRH) and became working royals some day because the royal family don't have young members other than the wales children and also harry and Megan's children are unlikely to be the support of the monarchy in the future. James and louise can be great assests in king William and king George's reign.
James, Earl of Wessex has to wait until he’s 18 before he’ll have the choice of using HRH and Prince. Lady Louise chose to not to use HRH and Princess.
He’s not hidden. He has been in attendance at significant public events. But beyond that, he’s a kid and a schoolboy and at this stage of his life, he needs a normal and private life. His parents, despite their public prominence, want this for their children very much.

Edward and Sophie seem to be remarkable parents. I'm so glad the King appreciates the value his youngest brother's family brings to the monarchy.
But does he really? He was forced into bestowing the dukedom on his brother, he just didn’t want to do it. It was the binding promise of his parents that obliged him to go ahead.

Prince Edward & Sophie maintain a healthy family life. No scandals here. Andrew could learn a lot from his younger brother.

Lets give the young man a chance to grow up, without being pested by the press...
I believe James would be good working royal, expecting the small group of working royals to do it all seems unreasonable.

James. The soon to be heartthrob.

I hope that both Lady Louise and James become working royals in some time, as I believe that they will be necessary in the reign of William and possibly the reign of George.
He’s the youngest grandchild of HMQEII. he is involved in every engagement and event his parents bring him to. His impeccable behavior makes him unnoticeable,but he certainly is very much a part of the RF. Way better than Harry btw.
Keep putting cameras in his face at every turn and see what happens.
TRH Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh are smart to keep HRH James, Earl of Wessex out of the spotlight ❤😂
James Earl of Wessex doesn’t have/use an HRH as he is styled as the son of a Duke.
The next heartbreaker royal.
Talk about being the "spare" of a spare of spare of a spare........Yet he is very grounded than his more famous cousin !
He seems normal... at this point - like his dad. Of all he royals, Edward would be the person I wouldn't mind living next to.
He's so gorgeous and stoic.
In what way is he stoic ???
James would be a great earl - he has the understanding of both public and monarchy life
He IS an Earl, albeit of a place that no longer exists
P. Edward and Sophie made the right choice in not giving their children titles and giving them a sense of normalcy in life cuz it isn’t all roses with being raised as a royal. Lots of pressure.
He is sooooo cute and handsome
Hi Margaret Merry Christmas in advance ❤
The Royal Family is already very "slim", given the facts that both Andrew and Harry are no longer active royals and the rest of the family is getting older every day. It would indeed be to HM The King's advantage, as well as to The UK's, that both Louise and James are made HRH"s and Princes of The Blood Royal and take on full royal responsibilities.
@MrWilhelm1950 Maybe that’s not what they want. Their mother said they would probably have to work for a living when their older.
@@chrispavlich9656 I know that Lady Louise is 20 years old now and she chose not to use style HRH and the title of Princess. It’s quite possible that James, Earl of Wessex may follow his sister’s example but we’ll just have to wait and see.
His is going to be useful for the monarchy in the future no hurry he is learning by observation .
It is probably for the best he remains "hidden" as you put it.
those kids are so adorable
A Young Heartbreaker in the Making!
I don't think it's fair that princes children can be HRH but princesses children can't. This is 2023 nearly 2024 and men still have prominence over women!!! Equality for all.
The Duke of Edinburgh title is not to be inherited by James or anyone after prince Edward passes!
No it is a life peerage
Just allow him to develop into the person he truly is or who he will become. Please let him mature and respect his dignity whilst he is finding himself.
On a different note, times have changed. Lady Louise Windsor is now the same age Lady Di was when Di got engaged. So young
Hi Colleen Merry Christmas in advance ❤
What a fact! It really changed my perspective. Lady Louise is still a child/teenager in my mind
Fist photos I've ever seen of that kid smiling.
I think he’s quite shy at this age.
@@gigitonsvajvit’s an awkward age for any child Royal or ordinary Kid ,
@@jennyporraz definitely.
#ThanksYouJames83
Adorable children yes
Congratulations on the new title! 😉
Hi Elizabeth Merry Christmas in advance ❤
Hi John! Merry Christmas!
It would be nice if the Edinburgh children become princess and prince when they reach the age of 21. If Meghan's two are prince and princess then these two really should be too, and they are both entitled to it being grandchildren of QE II.
Both Charlie and Willie Windsor's climate and energy policy activism along with Charlie's support and complicity with the WEF doom the monarchy and the sooner that the British public wake up to this nonsense and stop paying for it the better. They have to GO! They're all just going to have to earn a living through their own efforts just like everyone else and that will be that! That is James's future - the same as the rest of us!
I'd like to see James and Louise as working royals but I'm selfish. If they want to be a part of it all, they will have my support. Lovely family
They do ‘work,’ but not as much as others, and don’t get the publicity their cousins William and Catherine get.
Hi Kate Merry Christmas in advance ❤❤
I think his parents protect him so much
He's not hidden He's only a young man don't need any stories about He's got that to come the whole family don't want limelight good people
Very good looking boy. I’m sure he will pop out one day unexpectedly.
Hi Joyce Merry Christmas in advance ❤
He is a cute chap.
I hope he will do something in his life: not course like philosophy, geography, history of art, english, etc… for ounce, can we see something like sciences, law, health…
His life, his choice!
*once
What is wrong with English, geography, history...?
I wish James and louise use their official titles (HRH) and became working royals some day because the royal family don't have young members other than the wales children and also harry and Megan's children are unlikely to be the support of the monarchy in the future. James and louise can be great assests in king William and king George's reign.
James, Earl of Wessex has to wait until he’s 18 before he’ll have the choice of using HRH and Prince.
Lady Louise chose to not to use HRH and Princess.
School Can’t Teach Only Need Two Teachers But They Heave To Angel.
He would be a great help for William after the exit by Harry and the Claw. William needs the help.
