According to a report from BBC UK, the Prince of Wales shared that he once harbored ambitions of becoming either a police officer or a DJ while appearing on The Graham Norton Show on BBC One. The Prince mentioned that he found the idea of being a policeman to be "quite cool" before entering a phase of interest in music where he wished to be a DJ. During this time, he referred to himself as "DJ Xara," noting to the host that he was not skilled enough to meet the standard required for playing at school parties.

Prince William made a surprise appearance on the program, which airs on Friday evening, as part of a special edition commemorating the Earthshot Prize. This prize, which the Prince established in 2020 to address worldwide environmental concerns, featured him alongside Cate Blanchett, Robert Irwin, and Hannah Waddingham, all of whom are associated with the initiative.
