  1. *William shared that his* [initial attempt](https://people.com/princess-charlotte-flood-tears-prince-william-new-beard-8741868) *to grow facial hair earlier this year didn’t go quite as planned.*

    *“Well, Charlotte didn’t like it the first time. I got floods of tears, the first one I got tears, so I had to shave it off,” he said.*

    *Determined to give it another go, the royal dad of three had to do a little convincing.*

    *“Then I grew it back. I thought, hang on a second, and I convinced her it was going to be okay,”* [*William added*](https://people.com/princess-charlotte-flood-tears-prince-william-new-beard-8741868)*.*

  2. Odd description. Had she not seen it growing? Surely she had seen a five o clock shadow or weekends without shaving before?

  3. You should have seen the reaction of my children when they saw my wife’s perm when she got home. They cried and wouldn’t go near her. She has very thick hair and looked like a black-haired Medusa.

  4. So kate and william aren’t living together????

  5. The headline is weird, but it’s not what he actually said.

    “Well, Charlotte didn’t like it the first time. I got floods of tears, the first one I got tears, so I had to shave it off,” he said.
    (…)
    “Then I grew it back. I thought, hang on a second, and I convinced her it was going to be okay,” William added.

    That doesn’t mean she suddenly saw him with a full beard and cried. More likely he was trying to grow it/not shaving it, she hated it and cried while persuading him to shave it off. The young lady clearly disapproved, lol.
    The last sentence implies he persuaded her it was going to look good *eventually* after the awkward phase.
    Basically…the reaction of many people on this sub was very similar to hers (and many are not convinced yet at all). 😅

    (ETA: also, ffs, people…they might just as well live together and still not see each other for a week or so, nonetheless. He travels, she might go to a summer camp, go on a trip with grandparents, whatever.)

  6. People graspin at straws sayin W&K dont live together (over a beard) just like H&M are getting divorced (over having separate interests). Yall have no chill. Lawd 🙄🤦🏽‍♀️

  8. Do they not see each other every day? Where does William live? It’s kind of odd that she was surprised to see her father with a new beard. How often does he see the children?

  9. So if Harry and Meghan are getting divorced according to the British media because supposedly they have different jobs and interest… what do they have to say about William telling us his daughter cried when she saw his beard unless his beard grew in one day??
