It’s Prince William and Prince Harry like you’ve never seen them before.

Each spoke candidly with American reporter Katie Couric in celebration of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.

Katie caught up with Prince William at Buckingham palace and Prince Harry in South America and spoke to the Princes about the royal wedding, their relationships with their grandmother and how much they miss their mother.

Prince Harry also shared his longing for a family of his own and referred to the queen as ‘Granny’, while Prince William talked about how he wishes to follow in his grandmother’s footsteps.

Prince Harry said, “I’ve longed for kids since I was very, very young…I’m waiting to find the right person, someone who’s willing to take on the job.”

Prince William said, “Hopefully, I can try and do her some kind of justice…she set an incredible example for me, for others, to follow. Her incredible leadership, her duty, her sacrifice. She was a young woman in a man’s world, carving her own way through life.

“When we were young it was very easy to take our grandmother for granted…It’s only really sort of been over the last sort of five, eight to 10 years that I’ve actually really learned to sort of understand and accept the huge deal that she is around the world, especially within the U.K.”

Oh, and here’s a gallery of Prince Harry because reasons:

How it all started for Prince Harry.

    I like the Royals I know lots do not. It is interesting to me that the Americans love the royals. They are so fascinated by them and faun all over them! Bit sad really.

    Hmmmm, who does he look like more? James Hewitt or Prince Charles? It’s a mystery to me….

    On a lighter note, if anyone is going to save the monarchy it is these two. Gorgeous, caring and dedicated.

      People say that….. I don’t know why. Harry has his fathers eyes, very close together, almost sitting on top of his nose. He is a combination of his father and Diana’s brother Charles I think.
