The world has seen a new bold look of Prince William. However, there has been a big struggle behind it. Recently while talking to the media, the Prince of Wales, 42, recalled how he had to get permission to grow a beard. 

Well, you might think that Prince William would have to approach the elder royals before he opted for a new look. However, that is not the case. 

The Prince had to convince his daughter, Princess Charlotte, who is one of his three sweet kids. In a candid interview, on November 7, 2024, the Prince stated that previously when he had attempted to grow a beard, “Charlotte didn’t like it the first time. I got floods of tears.” 

Eventually, per William, he had to shave his beard off. 

Later, still having the same wish, the Prince of Wales, stated, “Then I grew it back. I thought, hang on a second, and I convinced her it was going to be okay,”

The time in life of Prince William earlier this year, was a tough one, as his wife Kate Middleton as well as his father, King Charles were both diagnosed with cancer.

However, the current period turns out to be a more relaxed one. The Prince was interviewed towards the end of his visit to Cape Town, South Africa. He was in the stated region for this year’s Earthshot Prize Awards.
