00:00The beard is back! It's been a tough year for the royal family, but in all the chaos,
00:05Prince William is once again making headlines for his neckline,
00:09sporting stubble on September 5th, and royal watchers love what they're seeing.
00:13Will visited a London art gallery on Thursday, and photos of his outing led many to form a
00:18newfound appreciation for the Prince of Wales, or as one user referred to him on X,
00:23Will Yum. Other comments include,
00:26William's beard is back and he's never looked better. Let's hope he keeps the razor away this
00:30time because this glow-up is fire. And,
00:32I demand Prince William apologize right now for being so hot.
00:36Of course, some accused Will of copying his younger brother, but as commenters were quick
00:40to point out, other royals have worn beards throughout history, including King Charles.
00:45Ultimately, though, it seems like Will is trying to garner a similarly positive
00:49reaction that his stubble received a few weeks back.
00:51All of us watching at home, congratulations to Team GB.
00:55Well done on all you've achieved. You've been an inspiration to us all.
00:57As the 2024 Paris Olympics drew to a close, Will and his wife Kate Middleton shared a video
01:02commending the United Kingdom's team for a job well done. Though the clip featured several
01:07celebrities alongside the royal couple themselves, most people could only focus on William's stubble.
01:12The comments section was flooded with users complimenting his new look, with one posting,
01:16Boy, William rocks the scruffy beard. He needed that to morph his look younger and hipper. Love it.
01:22So what is it about Will's new look that has everyone so excited?
01:26Hello! magazine asked love and relationships expert Dr. Tara and she explained,
01:30Beards can signal masculine energy and higher testosterone,
01:33and therefore is seen as more attractive. Dr. Tara added that a beard could also give
01:37the appearance of a more defined jawline and a more elongated chin. In Will's case,
01:42the subtle stubble also reminded some of how attractive he looked when he first sported a
01:46full beard during Christmas 2008. Will's brother Prince Harry has been sporting a beard for years
01:52now, and it's caused some tension, to say the least. Harry had to ask his grandmother the
02:00Queen to allow him to keep his beard when marrying Meghan Markle in 2018, and according to Harry's
02:05memoir, Will wasn't happy about that. Harry wrote, After he's come back from an assignment with
02:10special forces, Willy was sporting a full beard, and someone told him to be a good boy,
02:14run along, and shave it. He hated the idea of me enjoying a perk he'd been denied.
02:19Will even tried to pull rank to get his little brother to pull out the razor,
02:23according to Harry, who wrote, At one point he actually ordered me,
02:26as the heir speaking to the spare, to shave.
