“He is sexy.” Prince William’s unusual beard fascinates Internet users

Some noted the disturbing presence of Snoop Dogg in a sequence posted on Wells’ Instagram account on Sunday, August 11. Others welcomed the rare appearance of Kate Middleton, who announced in March that she has cancer. Others praise David Beckham’s message, which is also present in the video. However, it’s really Prince William’s unusual beard that has generated the most excitement.

“In vacation mode”

“Congratulations on what you have achieved, you have been a source of inspiration to us all,” the heiress said in the post, where the personalities in turn sent their congratulations to the British athletes at the end of the Paris Olympics. Excited by Prince William’s new look, netizens expressed their approval in the comments of the post.

“Prince William is sexy with his three-day beard,” wrote one of them. “I love Prince William’s beard (flaming emoji),” @coffman.brenda added. “William please keep growing that beard,” @tenzinnra said. Or. “Oh…William is really in vacation mode. Great!” A swagger that is most pronounced as a prince, usually clean shaven, generally has a more formal look.

The beard of discord

We saw him with a new beard in 2008, during the year-end holidays. Prince William shaved it off a few weeks later. If this detail may seem trivial, it will be a big challenge for Kate Middleton’s husband. Prince Harry did tell in his memoirs The substitutePublished in January 2023, his beard was a source of conflict with his brother. On the eve of his marriage to Meghan Markle in May 2018, Prince William would advise her to shave, as it is customary to be hairless in military uniform.

The Duke of Sussex reportedly refused before asking Elizabeth II for permission to keep his beard on the day of the ceremony. A request approved by the sovereign, much to the dismay of Prince William. “For God’s sake, Willy, why is this so important to you?”, Prince Harry is reported to have faced with his brother’s reaction. “Because I wasn’t allowed to grow a beard,” Prince William reportedly replied. And Prince Harry wrote: “We were there. After returning from a special forces mission, Willie had a beard and someone told him to be a good boy and shave it off. He hated the idea that I could take advantage of something that was denied him.” Years from now, no one knows how long the future king will keep the beard he is currently sporting.
