Prince William’s recent appearance with a new look has ignited much worry among internet users. Photos from the event show the Prince sporting a new look which left the internet divided.

Prince William, the Prince of Wales, has recently sparked concern among internet users after appearing in public looking noticeably thinner than usual.

Photos from his appearance at the RAF Sovereign’s Parade left many royal watchers worried about his health.

The reactions online were immediate, as social media users expressed shock at the unrecognizable look of the future king. While some attributed the changes in his appearance to the pressures of royal life, others voiced unease about what they saw as a troubling transformation.

Many pointed out how different the Prince looked, with one user asking, “This is William?! Why does he look so aged and gaunt?” Others echoed similar sentiments, focusing on his weight loss. “You look like you’ve lost two stones and not healthily. Now you’re sick too?” wrote another worried fan.

The recurring theme among these reactions was concern for William’s health, as several fans expressed shock at his thin appearance. “He looks sick and too skinny,” one comment simply stated, while another added, “He’s looking very thin… I hope he’s okay.”

Many seemed to agree that the Prince looked worn down, with one user writing, “Definitely looks tired, it’s understandable, such a heavy weight to carry, emotionally.” Others thought he was unrecognizable with comments such as, “Is that William?”

While many fans focused on the Prince’s gaunt appearance, others zeroed in on a different aspect of his look — his beard. The Prince’s facial hair sparked a mixed reaction among followers, with opinions ranging from admiration to critique.

For some, the beard was a welcome addition, with one fan commenting, “He looks so good with his beard ❤️” and another adding, “I’m not usually a fan of beards, but that actually suits him.” However, not everyone agreed.

Some fans felt the beard made him appear older and less polished. “I’d rather see the Prince of Wales shaved! Looks younger and more handsome,” one user wrote.

Another was more direct, stating, “Get a shave. You are a King in waiting,” while others wondered about royal protocols, asking, “Are beards allowed with military uniforms?”

The debate over William’s facial hair highlighted the divided opinions on his evolving appearance. For some, the beard enhanced his look, while others felt it detracted from the clean-cut image they were used to seeing.

His appearance at the RAF Sovereign’s Parade wasn’t just any public event. It was a significant moment when he stood in for King Charles III as the reviewing officer.
