Prince William has decreed a new aesthetic era with the debut of a scruffy new beard and, let’s just say, the people are on board.
Appearing in an Olympics video alongside Princess Kate, Snoop Dogg and David Beckham, Prince William showed off a surprisingly unkempt look for the future King of England.
The video, which celebrated ‘Team GB’ (the UK Olympic team), was shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales Instagram account. “Well done on all you achieved, you’ve been an inspiration to us all,” spoke William. But with the greatest respect to royals and Olympians alike, the message was a little upstaged by William’s hunky prince in his new dad era.
“What a sight!” wrote one commenter in respect to William’s new facial hair. “William with a tan and a beard!!!! ?” shared another in a comment that was liked over 3000 times. “William, please keep growing that beard!!” wrote another alongside a heart emoji. “Here for Will’s stubble” and “Love the scruff W!” the comments continued.
There was an undeniable thirst for the royal, who has long outgrown his reputation as the cute, fresh-faced prince who once made a brief appearance in The Princess Diaries 2.
While the stubble certainly stole the show, others remarked on William’s tan, which could be thanks to Kate and Will’s summer holiday away from public duties. Adoring royal followers also commented on the Duchess looking healthy and lovely (as always), with many glad to see the Princess doing well amid her ongoing cancer treatment.
