Charles: In His Own Words shows us another side of King Charles III. With a better understanding of why he was known to be the rebel prince, by Award winning Tom Jennings.

The Synopsis 

A rare view into the real Charles, CHARLES: IN HIS OWN WORDS traces back to the beginning, revealing the formative events that have influenced the man, former Prince and the King he was destined to be. From the creators of the acclaimed National Geographic documentary special Diana: In Her Own Words, this unique portrait of a monarch sifts through a treasure trove of rare, unheard and never-before-seen archival material to tell the definitive story of Charles through his very own words and those who’ve known him best.

I had the opportunity to speak with Tom Jennings via Zoom to talk about Charles: In His Own Words. I looked forward to hearing his opinion about Charles, now as King Charles III and shared what changes he hopes to see during his regiment. Jennings also discussed the footage he found that had never been seen before and that shows us a playful and charismatic side of Charles when he was much younger. In addition to his upbringing, the ongoing affair with Camilla Parker Bowles and much more!
