“As a prince, you would think he could afford a razor and shave before his wedding. He looked like a bum in a fancy uniform.”
Your generation is showing. He looked fine and very handsome.
I saw on one tabloid cover just today that “bombshell news that Meghan is pregnant”. Why does that not surprise me....
This scruff look is for a two week camping trip, not a royal wedding. Either grow a proper beard, as the Victorians did, or shave.
He actually broke the military code governing facial hair; UK requires men to be clean shaven while in uniform. Think about it: otherwise, they would have to permit the muslims to have their henna-dyed ungroomed beards and the sikhs their turbans and daggers, etc. He had to get special permission from the Queen to keep the beard.
