Prince William Sparks Mixed Reactions After Shaving Off His Beard
Prince William, who is preparing to return to royal duties after a summer holiday with his wife Catherine and their three children, has left some fans disheartened with his latest decision.
The Prince of Wales has shaved off his beard, a look that had garnered admiration from fans during his appearance in a star-studded video praising Team GB's Olympic efforts. The clean-shaven look was revealed as the 42-year-old was spotted driving to Sunday service at Crathie Kirk alongside Catherine, who was making her first public appearance since Wimbledon.
While many celebrated Catherine’s return to the public eye, others expressed their disappointment over the loss of William’s beard. One fan joked, "Catherine saw women on the internet swooning over her husband's beard and decided to make him shave it off. RIP beard. It was fun while it lasted."
Another fan lamented, "I’m officially entering a period of mourning for William’s beard. I only saw it once, but I’ll always remember it."
The reaction was filled with humour, as one fan commented, "No doubt somebody will set up a GoFundMe page for the sadly departed Royal Beard," while another quipped, "I am sending my condolences to Prince William’s beard which has now been shaven off."
"The sexy scruff has been cancelled, worldwide tears ensued," added another fan, capturing the light-hearted yet heartfelt response from William’s admirers.
