In 2018, the royal family member undertook a six-week apprenticeship at North Shore Pottery in Scotland.
Speaking of his experience, Sam wrote on Instagram: “2018 was such an incredible year of self-reflection and growth for me.
“I spent six weeks in the very north of Scotland immersed in pottery and ceramics, being taught by the most patient and passionate potter,” he wrote at the time. “Clay consumed my every waking hour and I am so excited to see what I can achieve this year!”
In 2019, Sam also launched his own website to sell his creations.
He has also exhibited his work in a show at At The Chapel, a restaurant in Bruton, Somerset near to Hauser & Wirth and its craft outpost, Make.
What does Sam do apart from pottery?

In a 2019 Instagram post, the royal revealed that he completed six weeks’ worth of training hours in India.
“It was an incredibly eye-opening experience which I am so deeply grateful for,” he wrote at the time.
Is Sam exempted from the “no social media” rule?
Yes, Sam is exempted from the “no social media” rule that senior members of the royal family follow. This is due to his lower standing in the hierarchy of succession.

The duo was said to have dated for more than four years, but no longer follow each other on social media, and older photos of them together have also been taken down from their respective profiles.
