- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- His Mother was the United Kingdom’s much loved queen for over 70 years and since her death his eldest Brother has taken to the throne. But what do we really know about the Queens youngest Son?
Edward, the King and Queens fourth child, had a great level of autonomy over his future compared to his siblings.
He did not have a path laid out for him in same way that his eldest brother, now King Charles, had.
Like many of the other Royals, Edward has endured public scrutiny and criticism. Despite this, he has emerged as one of the most hardworking and well-respected figures of the monarchy.
Edward is praised as a kind and down-to-earth man. Edward and his wife Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh mainly stay out of the limelight but the strong couple always step up when they are needed. They provide great support to the other Royals.
His dedication to the monarchy and warm personality have made him a favoured child amongst his parents and the general public.

Prince Edward and Sophy are the most humble Royals and the sweetest of them all love them
Edward’s ambitions were squashed. I’m sorry for that. However, he has supported the RF splendidly. I hope the DOE title becomes hereditary for his son. ❤
I love his sense of humour so much. He is like ordinary person who will not catch any attention for the first time, but after that, we realize he is the diamond.
Ugh. This guy has no strategies to stop corruption. Of course children are trying to get ahead but the English school system is flawed. All employers must train on the job.
Perhaps it is because there is no such corruption like in other places. The English school system is the best, hence the obsession of foreigners to send them their kids there. The system in America where kids go with guns & are so disrespectful of their teachers are appalling.
The Degrees are useless, since the employers must train on the job. The English system has failed everywhere it exists all over the world because people follow politics instead of their job description. @@roxy3539

He seems to have shared that sense of humor (our) with his father. Having watching some of the videos in which they interact, they appear to have had a very fond and sympathetic relationship.
He and his wife are a wonderful Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh. God bless them and keep them.
Edward definitely shows similarities to his sister and his father. In speech particularly. I think Edward and Sophie are hidden gems who are just hitting their stride now in their new positions and increased workload. They make a formidable pair.
I was thinking the same thing about the similarities to his sister and father! I hadn't noticed it before watching this.
Their Silver Anniversary will be celebrated next year, and I hope there will be a big celebration for the only child of the late Queen Elizabeth II who hasn't gotten divorced! They have raised their two beautiful children to be credits to 'The Firm', and watching all eight of the Queen's grandchildren stand vigil over her coffin was a very emotional sight. Seeing Sophie and Edward watching as Louise and James stood with their cousins showed how much they support their children, as good parents should!
Prince Edward and Sophie are my favorites.
They and their children are great assets to the Monarchy!
Edward is my favorite royal. He's authentic and an unabashed family man. Thankfully, Charles III has given the Duke of Edinburgh and the Princess Royal meaningful jobs and titles to assist him during his reign. Elizabeth II is a tough act to follow. However, the king's sister, brother, Duchess of Edinburgh, heir, and daughter-in-law are capably fulfilling their royal duties despite the family rift with the Duke of Sussex and the embarrassing antics of the elder snot commonly known as the Duke of York.
His documentaries are very good!
He looks most like the late queen. I admire him for his devotion to the royal family and for his beautiful family. Charming!
I have alot of respect for him and his family. I thought as a narrator for the history shows he did were super!❤
Me too!
@@jamieryman - I was always rather upset for Prince Edward that his productions weren’t given the credit they deserved. I thought they were excellent.
What a charming man. Great sense of humor and such a lovely family.
This was a honest accounting of him. It’s refreshing to see a documentary like this accurately cover the flaws as well as the growth of someone in this family without making excuses for them. He was a disaster as a young man but has turned into a contributing member of his family. I have always thought his documentaries were good.
I do not think Edward was a disaster as a young man .We all need to take time to find our path in life and that is what happened to Edward .
❤
He has matured beautifully. Having a well balanced and caring wife has helped his development. A positive and kind wife makes a huge development outcome.
Even though I’m Irish and have lived in the U.K. 21 years, I’ve always liked Sophie - and her son James is so handsome too ❤
Joining the royal marines was courageous in my opinion. Many fail the training and no one bats an eye as it is a gruelling training/ education. But the prince must have realised that not passing for one of the most gruelling trainings would have been scrutinized and even ridiculed. And yet he gave it a go. For that I respect him.
Long live The Duke of Edinburgh and Duchess of Edinburgh. My favorite couples ❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the few in Royal family with ( the Queen s children) seems kind and caring and not a snob
Edward is a humble decent man,very down to earth 🌻🌻👍👍
I'm not sure about favourite but when you're the last child, as I am, it's just a bit different, you are forever the baby to your parents, can't say why.
Probably because you're the baby. The baby and the only child are the only 2 birth order states that never change.
He now has the title of Duke of Edinburgh as his parents wished. It was given to him on his birthday.
Thank you for recognizing Prince Edward, he’s so much overlooked at times. God bless the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh. I have twins born on March 10th but a different year
I find it fascinating how the toxic 'excitement' of the Sussexes' faux-royalty has revealed to the world how enthralling and beautiful authentic royalty truly is. The real duty and responsibility felt toward their communities, their country and humanity at large. Nobody will forget that Sophie chose to be That Guy when taking one for the team to ride with Meghan on the day of QEII's funeral. Am delighted to now have learned more about Edward too. Truly an outstanding, upstanding team, the pair of 'em.
I only got interested in the royal family when s**t hit the fan with the harkles. And just to realise that the RF is quite cool
Harry is his mother’s son. WHY is anyone surprised that he left?
@@morganfalkdesigns I doubt anyone's truly surprised. Harry has always acted out. But, Diana had two sons; reportedly raising them to be each other's wingmen. And, to respect their birthright within the monarchy. In that light, it's a right sorry state of affairs that Harry behaves as if he's a righteous lone-wolf while still demanding to have a honorary position within the pack.
you covered his glitches brilliantly but he has grown into being a real credit to the family and works incredibly hard
I agree
@@ladyofthelake1841so do I
he hasnt worked a day in his life
@@transatlanticizeIt depends on what you consider to be work. Edward has of course tried to run a Company but you probably don't recognise raising money , planning , coordinating projects etc as "real " work.
I remember my ,mother could never understand that office work was tiring and when my sister returned home each evening she would challenge her right to be exhausted after an 8 hour day.
I like him and Princess Anne.
Well done Prince Edward!!! A wonderful asset to the royal family
Edward is my favorite ❤️
Prince Edward is a lovely man. Having arranged to meet a friend at the bandstand in Saughton Park, Edinburgh, a while ago - and unaware of his presence in what seemed to be a fairly low-key private event in the nearby sunken garden; we were astonished when he simply walked over and began talking to us and other members of the public who were there - asking how we all were, and were we enjoying the summer weather, and suchlike! It obviously wasn't part of his programme - but a spontaneous move on his part (if the somewhat astonished look on the pair of minders following him was anything to go by) and something that he genuinely wanted to do and enjoyed doing... I imagine that it was perhaps his way of ensuring that he was not reserved simply for the official company that had been assembled. He is very slender indeed when you see him close up, but with the same good and upright posture of his father and others before him. Effectively the third most senior man in the land, his kingly brother and nephew are fortunate indeed to have him by their sides.
A lovely comment
Luv Edward ❤️ he is so honest and gracious
in my opinion, Prince Edward looks the most alike his mother
Yes, more documentaries on Prince Edward please.
No the whole family are a Cancer
Totally agree I love that couple
Yes Edward is one of my favourites along with his wife and Princess Anne I partivularly enjoyed his Crown and Country series and his Edward on Edward too
What a fabulous documentary! Very well done. Thank you for sharing this. I actually sat in my car and watched this in its entirety whilst waiting to attend a meeting.
Love his documentary series on Britain and Royal stories!😍❤
Love Edward and Sophie and the children too.. love all of the Royal Family.❤❤❤❤
I have binge watched Crown and Country on YT last Fall. It's getting to be time to watch them again. I'm not British so there's always something to learn that I missed the last time around. 😊
I love the Edinburghs. They quietly get on with the ‘job’ with no drama or complaining. Other Royal family members would do well to emulate them!
Edward and Anne are my favorite children of the Queen. They seem almost normal, even though they are privileged
What a terrificly wonderful, comprehensive production!!! So well done!
I like him so much!! His wife and children are wonderful!!
If we really need the royals then they should pattern their lives on Edward and lovely wife… clean living, focussed and family and country oriented
The programs he produced were excellent.
He seems like a nice guy and his wife seems like a lovely woman.
Looks very much like Diana she smile.
Prince Edward and Sophie are two of my favorite Royals! I'm so glad he is following
in Prince Phillip's foot steps as the Duke of Edinburgh! Sophie carries on as the Queen
wished her to continue in her service to their country!
The Queen and Prince Phillip are no doubt very happy that their children are doing such
a good job of continuing their legacy of SERVICE FIRST!❤🇺🇸
Gonna be a GREAT Duke !!!!
And I Hope they all take a more frontline role as the years go by!
Prince Edward looks like an older version of Prince William.
I thought I was the only one that noticed that..he looks a lot like his Nephew, Prince William and his eldest brother King Charles is their late father Prince Philip's splitting image😊
Funny. I read the title and thought, ‘Most favorite?!’ Honestly, I think he is often the most forgotten Royal. Why? Because he doesn’t make waves so the media cannot capitalize on him.😉!
Wait…😮…a “D in history and politics???”😮😮😮. I hope earning a British D letter grade is not the same as earning a D letter grade in America’s educational institutions.😵💫. 😂!
As I watch this, he indeed is his mother’s son, but carries the public strength of his late father, The Duke!👑
Yes I think the word " favoured" would-be more appropriate than Favourite. Felt like American capture or media trying to turn everything into a race
His documentrys crown and country are excellent
I did the bronze award while in a wheelchair and dispite not caring during the process I felt a lot of pride when I got the badge even if it is the lowest one
Good on you! Well done! I had been wondering if one could take part from a wheelchair or as a lifelong wheelchair user
@@marilynwoolford-chandler1161 thanks, its certainly possible I was planning to bike it but the bike was to big for the pathways so I had to use the chair my group we’re brilliant just waiting on the certificate now I’ve got the pin badge
I participated in the duke of Edinburgh awards scene between 1972 - 1974 I still have my book lost all my medals though but still have the great memories
It's fascinating watching the tabloid press being almost literally forced into a volte-face on Prince Edward. He was, for many years, their elected "Bad Royal" (in the tabloid sense which rules, for reasons passing understanding, that there must always be a "Bad Royal"). It probably started with the Duke of Windsor; then it was Princess Margaret, then Edward, now Harry. Nowadays the redtops are rather spoiled for choice when it comes to Bad Royals, so even they must now concede that despite a couple of pretty minor blips, they got this one wrong. I for one am glad to see HRH finally getting the credit he deserves. Have always admired his work.
@clockendfarm: You’re right about the tabloid press. But you’ve forgotten how they waged war against Princess Anne too when she was much younger - so much so that she told a bunch of reporters to “Naff Off”, which itself hit the headlines. They should have known better than to try to intimidate her Royal Highness. She’s got more integrity in her little finger than those gutter press.
Of course he was .The one she had more time with and could act as a mother since her position as The Queen was established and rooted .What's more his father did not interfere with his education like he did with Charles .Edward was never to reign and his parents were older and wiser when he was born .
Edward and Sophie have come such a long way ❤❤
❤❤❤the royal knockout looked like something we used to have in New Zealand called Top Town. A great deal of fun. We need things like that to come back without all the over the top safety rubbish
We love this couple most regal
I cannot help but feeling for King Charles. he was under such an enormous pressure to marry that he and Diana dated less than 15 times before getting married.
And now compare that to the luxury of being able to date for 6 years before making a decision and even 8 years with William and Catherine.
No sympathy
I miss his documentaries! They were always well done and so interesting!
It may not be fair to say Prince Edward was "the favorite child" because I think he and his siblings were all very special to their parents, each of them in very different ways. Prince Edward may have enjoyed more time with his parents than the rest of his siblings because he was the youngest child and his parents were more relaxed and had more time to dedicate to him when he was born. There may also have been a greater affinity precisely because his parents were more mature when he appeared on the scene. I think that special attention may have contributed to his calm character. He does have a very excellent sense of humor which I think he may have inherited from both his parents. I think it was brilliant that his parents didn't interfere in his relationship with Sophie, no doubt a benefit of being the youngest. I was so glad that he was given the Duke of Edinburgh title. I only wished that it had been given in hereditary form, but as I understand it, his son James is not considering a royal life. So it may be for the best. BTW, he produced a historical series called "Crown and Country" which is excellent. You can still find episodes in RUclips.
Lovely family❤
Amusing how his brother intended to marry a married woman and did and is now King.
Did anyone also notice that Prince Louis somehow resembles his Granduncle when he was perhaps his age? ☺️ both very good looking royals 3:05
He favors his Uncle Harry and Grandma too. He also favors Kate's dad a little bit.
I thought the same when I saw the young Edward. Louis looks a lot like him at that age even though Louis looks a lot like grandpa Middleton imo.
@@cocoaorange1. Harry! Good grief. I can see NO resemblance. Louis looks like his mum and her side of the family, right from birth. Who can doubt that?
I think that every time I see Louie! I’ve been watching a lot of videos about royals this week and Louie resembles him s much
Prince Edward and Princess Anne kinda of got to draw their duties their own ways.
He has a resemblance to King George VI and Prince William.
What an excellent documentary. Loved every moment andd look forward to many more.
I really loved this.
Very interesting indeed. Love Edward and Sophie, and her son and mine were both born on 17th December 2007.
That’s my birthday too! But I was born in 1985.
He is very wìse and beìnģ fròm Ròyaĺ famiĺy very humbĺe man, his wìfe is lovely l used to read about her and dear Queen.
Thank you so very much, you have lifted my spirit..."I know when the nights gone...That a new world is born at dawn...Deep in my heart is a song." (Tumbling Tumbleweed) NYC/USA
I’m intrigued by this family after watching the crown. Not much was shown about Edward, so thank you for this!!
Please be aware that the Crown is rubbish as family history! Spun towards the most dramatic and nastiest way of telling half-stories about a family that has done its best with problems that many of us face -- catastrophic marriages, professional failures, health problems, all the ordinary mistakes of growing up.
@@agingflowerchild”done its best…” 🤣🤣🤣 The only thing it’s done well is avoid having Social Services banging on the door, as would undoubtedly have happened had they been any other UK family.
O melhor do filhos da rainha, ele e sua família fazendo trabalho brilhante para a coroa!
Prince Edward wasn’t the favourite child. That was Anne for The Duke of Edinburgh and Andrew was the favourite of the Queen.
@ I was just gonna say the same😅
Me too.
I honestly think Anne was both their favourites, and I don’t blame the. She’s been faultless in her duty to the crown and her parents, both in life and their death.
@@midnightq69I can't believe the blurb declared him the hardest working royal 😂 Excuse me, have you met ass-kicking Anne? She only averages more than one official appearance per day.
The queen said there were no favorites. Loved them all
Prince Edward looks like his Grandfather …. King George
Without his family background Edward wouldn’t have made it. He failed at everything beside doing royal representative tasks. There he is obviously doing a good job and is very well liked, so luckily he has found his place.
Nicholas Galitzine appearance in RWRB mobie really remind me of Prince Edward when he was young
Nice work
I didn't think Edward "was a disaster as a young man" . He did not complete military training (Commando) which was a plus in my book. He was not an academic, like his oldest brother now our King, he got a Second Class Degree Div 2 but it was clear from his underlining of the importance of access to the primary sources that he had learnt something about History which his interviewers had not. He wanted to branch out try and express his creative side and Ardent had a nine year life, leaving a legacy of actual programmes (many released on RUclips and as good as anything else available to us in the colonies at the time). The financial side was less impressive.
I'm extremely glad that these two have each other. A compatible partner is an essential in modern Royal life. May God be gracious to them as they recover from the deaths of Edward's parents, the nastiness of the king's second son who while not entirely wrong in what he said, was so warped by media intrusion, overuse of drugs and alcohol while young, and capture by another older woman of colour was extremely hurtful.
A Cute Gentleman ❤
Edward is no ordinary person and just think if he was a Royal, he would be going bankrupt. It is the truth, and everyone knows it, so why not if your company goes down why not put all your time and effort into being a royal makes perfect sense to me
I didn't know much about Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh until now after watching this documentary. He is so funny and charming. What a lovely person he is😊 King Charles has an amazing support and assistance system from the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh😊
The Queen was not a very good mother to Charles and Anne.
She was so busy with her role and traveling.
She always had time for Prince Phillip.
I think Andrew and Edward received more of her attention and love than the older children.
Sad how she treated them.😢
Well done.
Daamn he looked like a younger William. I know its his uncle but 😅 its uncanny
You mean cousin don’t you?🌸
@@jean405he is William's uncle, not cousin (brother of his father, dooh).😅
@@anamariagrigore5747 got it 🙃😂
No, it’s not at all. Why are people so intent on wearing gooey-eyed glasses?
No, it’s not at all. Why are people so intent on wearing gooey-eyed glasses?
Edward has proven to be the best of the best when it comes to royal children of hrh e11. He never sought to make waves or be frount and center but he did his own thing. He made some great dovumentaries and if the firm hadn't stopped him he would have had a splended carèer. He has proven that he can follow the rules and not bring shame etc. To the royals. If the queen decided to nsme her successor and not go by order of birth that she would realize the best asset the royal family has is in her youngest, most level headed respectable and respectful member of THE FIRM. The one thing king charles can do for himself, his family and his subjects is to abdicate in favor of william. Edward would back and guide william 100% in the right direction
Come on edward you and william can save the monarchy from themselves. God nless prince E and prince W.
Commentators make your mibds up for years youve all been bsnging on about how Andrew was the Favourite child,years,now all of a sudden it eas always Edward.🙄🙄. The dear Queen DID NOT have favourites ( nor did she have favourite grandchildren OR great grandchildren🥱🥱) Andrew was born TEN years adter Anne/ 12 after Charles,Edward came along FOUR years after Andrew. Which meant in a way the Queen had 2 families. She LOVED THEM ALL.
Andrew was his mother's favourite child, not Edward. Always the spoilt one that goes wrong.
Prince William will look like him eventually.
He alsobenefitted from big brother Charles who made up stories for him (and Andrew). I got the one that was published out from the stack of our local library and it was full of delights, word plays, puns ND self deprecatory humour.
His daughter looks so much like him ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Edward the 8th had some scary political beliefs. Good he was banned from the country.
I would hope Prince Edward was his parents' favorite. He never caused any trouble, is the only one who's still married. His brother (no longer randy andy) is the most embarrassing person to have once held a title is now lesser looking than that of his sweet younger brother. He still is a hunk. His brothers name doesn't even matters since he's a nobody.
I love the Duke of Edinburgh Prince Edward. He is kind, funny, beloved, cute, giving, hardworking and not a me person like that other one.
Did he not do a stint at Whanganui collegiate in NZ?
Yes he did. Not sure why this period in his life was overlooked in this documentary. He was a house tutor for two semesters from late 1982 to mid 1983. I was a student at the school during this time. I vividly remember Prince Charles, Princess Diana and baby Prince William visiting the school during Prince Edward's time there. There is a building on the school's campus called the Prince Edward Auditorium to honour his time at the school.
Wow thanks for responding, that must have been an awesome experience.@@maverick214
Prince William is very much like his uncle. I hope the two of them have a close relationship.
I’m confused, it was said that Prince Andrew was the favorite, at least with the queen!
Make up your mind I thought Prince Andrew was the favourite? Edward certainly was a lovely looking child as was Princess Anne
💖😍
My beautiful Queen. Love her and she will always be in my heart. King Charles is now our wonderful king. Long live the king
🎉
More stories like we havent heard enough
Since when?
The Horrible Sussec squad Afua Hagen always dragging William. What drama does William bring?
In Uk we don’t see much of Edward.
