In 2018, The Cut interviewed some former boarding school classmates of Prince William and Prince Harry. The brothers went to Eton College, a hallowed boys-only boarding school that also once taught former British PMs Boris Johnson and David Cameron, per the Daily Mail. According to their classmates, William was “very integrated” whereas Harry was more wayward. Saying that William was “popular,” and “beloved by teachers and boys alike,” the classmate described the Prince of Wales as “a homecoming-king type,” and adding, “but Harry wasn’t — I think Harry probably had it harder finding his way.”
The Duke of Sussex admitted this much was true in 2015 during a tripe to Cape Town where he told school boys, “I didn’t enjoy school at all […] When I was at school I wanted to be the bad boy,” per The New Zealand Herald.

Of course, Harry being Harry, he also used the visit to land in a slight dig at his older brother, who is first in line to the throne. “If you’ve got an older brother that’s not into gangs, that’s a huge positive,” he said. “Older brothers are supposedly the cool ones. I’m a younger brother, but I’m much cooler than my older brother.”
