History Main / RebelPrince

* Prince Hal in Shakespeare's ''HenryIV'' (less so in RealLife) is either this or pretending to be.

* There's PowerRangersTimeForce with the Red Ranger, Wesley "Wes" Collins. Mr. Collins wanted Wes to grow up to inherit the family business from him, but his grooming served only to alienate Wes.

* [[TheVorkosiganSaga Emperor Gregor Vorbarra of Barrayar]] experiences this, especially in ''The Vor Game''.

* Two examples from the British Royal House: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Harry_of_Wales Prince Henry of Wales]] aka "Harry", also a FieryRedhead like his RebelliousPrincess aunt Fergie, and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_VIII_of_the_United_Kingdom King Edward VIII]] (who ''abdicated'' the throne on his younger brother George, father of Queen Elizabeth, to marry the American divorcee Wallis Simpson).

* Does a [[{{ThePresidents}} Rebellious President]] count? BarackObama recently snuck away from reporters and White House corps- to attend one of his daughter's soccer games. ''Aww.''
** No, a president works very hard to be elected. He wants it very much. He can be a good father and a president at the same time.

** Disney realy likes this trope [[{{Cinderella}} Prince Charming]], [[SleepingBeauty Prince Phillip]], and [[ThePrincessAndTheFrog Prince Naveen]] all fit this bill to various degrees.
*** Please explain each briefly.

Often, after he learns to accept his life he will end up becoming TheWisePrince.

* The SyFy mini-series {{Series/Alice}}, reveals mid-way, [[spoiler: that Jack Chase is Prince Jack Heart, the BigBad 's son, helping Alice and the Wonderland Resistance to overthrow his mother.]]

Charming or not, he's the spear counterpart to the RebelliousPrincess; someone born to privilege, whether that means the sole heir of a kingdom or a company, who does not want to assume whatever his princely responsibilities are. Always male because kings and CEOs tend to think only a son deserves the inheritance and when it is the daughter she always seems to want it passed on to her.

* Prince Henry from ''Film/EverAfter'' finds it insufferable to be defined by your position.

* After Mufasa's death Simba became this in ''TheLionKing''.
