British Prince William has temporarily grown a beard, and this decision has ignited a flurry of discussion on the internet. Social media users have been enthusiastic about the prince’s new look, showering him with compliments.

In recent Instagram photos, Prince William is seen sporting a short beard, which has become the subject of widespread chatter and admiration from his followers.

Representing his father, King Charles III, Prince William appeared at the Sovereign Parade at the Royal Air Force College Cranwell in England. In his military attire, adorned with medals, a star, and the ribbon of the Order of the Garter, he delivered a speech, saying, “I am delighted to see so many families and friends here. Although I did not complete my training on this parade ground, I did finish my flying training here.”

However, some users also recalled Prince Harry, William’s younger brother. In the comments, critical remarks surfaced regarding what they perceived as Prince William’s “pettiness” and references to his criticism of Harry in 2018.

It was noted, “Apparently, Harry mentioned in his book that William threw a fit over not being able to wear a beard at his wedding and envied Harry, who could. It seems that now, with Granny gone, the beard has stayed.”
