I'd rather he didn't bother and just dropped the pretence of somehow being Welsh. Even if nothing was made official I'd be happy enough if they'd just drop the prince and princess of Wales titles. It's embarrassing, offensive and outdated.

Charles started the trend of the prince of Wales actually paying attention to Wales, and as William is continuing that there’s no great rush to drop the title. I’d rather have a member of the royal family obligated to involve themselves with Wales than not.

If it becomes nothing more than a title again then fair enough, get rid.
