I’d be absolutely fine if my children were gay” – Prince William

The Duke of Cambridge Prince William said that he would be “absolutely fine” if any of his children identified as gay and he would support them through it.

He made this statement while visiting Albert Kennedy Trust (AKT), an LGBT charity in Hoxton, east London, that helps LGBT young people who were made homeless because of their sexual orientation.

While speaking during his visit today, the Duke of Cambridge has said he worries about the pressures his children may face if in future they came out as gay or lesbian. He said he would be “absolutely fine” if they did, but he worries about the persecution they may face. He went on to admit he had discussed the subject with his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge.

He also expressed his shock at the recent bus attack on a lesbian couple, saying: “I was really appalled by that attack.”

The Prince was asked by a young gay man what he would do if any of his kids comes out as gay.

The man, who chose to be anonymous asked: “If your child one day in the future said: ‘Oh I’m gay, oh I’m lesbian,’ whatever, how would you react?”

Prince William replied: “I think you don’t really start thinking about that until you are a parent, and I think – obviously, absolutely fine by me.”

The father-of-three, added: “The one thing I’d be worried about is how, particularly the roles my children fill, how that is going to be interpreted and seen. So Catherine and I have been doing a lot of talking about it to make sure they were prepared.”

He added: “It worries me not because of them being gay; it worries me how everyone else will react and perceive it and the pressure is then on them.”

He told another man in the group he had started thinking about it since his children were born and it was something he was “nervous about”.

He added: “Not because I am worried about them being gay, or anything. It’s more about the fact I’m worried about the pressure – as you all know – they’re going to face and how much harder their life could be.
