The young man, widely recognized as the first son of King Philippe of Belgium and Queen Mathilde, has captured public interest from an early age. Born second in line to the Belgian throne, he’s grown up under the spotlight, yet maintained a relatively grounded lifestyle. The young man spent part of his youth involved with the Royal Evere White Star Hockey Club, where he played with dedication—though he eventually stepped away from the team in 2019 to focus on other priorities. Before all the royal duties and media attention, the young man entered the world at Erasmus Hospital in Anderlecht, Brussels, marking the beginning of a life shaped by tradition and public service. Interestingly, despite being the first son, he follows his older sister, Princess Elisabeth, in the line of succession, as she holds the position of heir apparent to the Belgian crown. The young man continues to navigate his role within the monarchy with quiet determination, gradually carving out his own identity alongside his well-known family legacy.
He’s had a strong connection to his family heritage, as his coat of arms is identical to that of his grandfather, King Albert II. Over the years, he has stayed deeply involved in the Scouts, having joined when he was just eight years old. His dedication to scouting has remained consistent, reflecting values passed down through generations. He often speaks fondly of those early experiences, and how they shaped his sense of duty and service. He continues to support youth programs, drawing inspiration from his own journey that began all those years ago with a simple Scout uniform.
