Prince William is drawing strong comparisons to his late mother, Princess Diana, as he continues her legacy of compassion by tackling homelessness across the UK.

The Prince of Wales was joined by entrepreneur Steven Bartlett and former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who highlighted how William’s work is shifting public attitudes, much like his late mother, Princess Diana, once did.
The former Prime Minister noted that Princess Diana helped change how society viewed critical issues like AIDS and landmines, and said Prince William is now doing something similar with homelessness.
William’s focus is on encouraging people to see homeless individuals as people with potential, not just as victims or outcasts. This strong message has drawn striking comparisons to Princess Diana’s lifelong compassion for the vulnerable.
Princess Diana famously took both her sons, William and Harry, on visits to meet people who were struggling.
These early experiences shaped Prince William’s understanding of social challenges and inspired his ongoing commitment to helping those “screwed over by society,” as he described them during his visit.
Now, as a father and future king, Prince William is building on Diana’s legacy through Homewards.
The project targets six key areas in the UK Lambeth, Bournemouth, Newport, Belfast, Aberdeen, and Sheffield with long-term, practical solutions aimed at preventing and reducing homelessness.

Prince William believes that solving homelessness can’t be done alone. He sees it as a team effort that depends on partnerships and community involvement. He has stressed the importance of everyone playing their part, working together, and offering hope to those in need.
By leading with empathy and using his position to bring people together, Prince William is earning praise for continuing Princess Diana’s legacy of kindness and change.
