Kate Middleton Giggles Over Prince William Losing His Hair\"PhotoSource: mega<\/p>\n

Prince William was able to laugh off Kate Middleton giggling over his ‘bald patch,’ a former royal butler shared in his new book.<\/p>\n

“I said that surely the worst thing about aging was losing your hair and going bald,” Harrold wrote, according to an excerpt obtained by another outlet<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“Kate started sniggering and William gave me a look and said, \u2018Thanks for that,\u2019” the ex-royal butler shared. “It hadn\u2019t occurred to me that, of course, by then he was starting to lose his hair.”<\/p>\n

Harrold noted there was “always this joke” about not mentioning the dad-of-three’s “bald patch,” but “he always took any comments, intended or otherwise, in good humor.”<\/p>\n

The Prince of Wales Has Poked Fun at Himself Over the Years\"PhotoSource: mega<\/p>\n

The Prince of Wales has been losing his hair for years.<\/p>\n

William’s ability to poke fun at himself has made headlines before, as when he visited the West Midlands in England earlier this year, he cracked a joke about his hairline when he met a woman with bright red tresses.<\/p>\n

After they shook hands, the Prince of Wales told her, “Look at your hair! It\u2019s fantastic. I wish I had hair like that<\/a>. Amazing. I know, I\u2019ve not a chance.”<\/p>\n

William also made fun of his receding hairline in 2020 at a ceremony for the Earthshot Prize.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t know if you guys have heard about the Earthshot Prize, but it\u2019s an initiative I started about two years ago. Now, although it\u2019s been about four years in the making, I had hair when it started,” he quipped to the crowd. “It\u2019s designed as an environmental prize tackling the world\u2019s greatest environmental problems.”<\/p>\n

Prince Harry Mentions His Brother’s Balding in ‘Spare’\"PhotoSource: mega<\/p>\n

Prince Harry described William’s hair loss as ‘alarming.’<\/p>\n

William’s thinning locks were also mentioned in Prince Harry<\/a>‘s memoir Spare.<\/p>\n

In the tome, the Duke of Sussex recalled having a tense discussion with his brother and their dad, King Charles<\/a>, at Prince Philip<\/a>‘s 2021 funeral.<\/p>\n

“I looked at Willy, really looked at him, perhaps for the first time since we were little, taking in every detail: his familiar scowl, which had always been the norm in his dealings with me,” Harry penned, noting his sibling’s thinning hair was “alarming” and more “advanced than mine.”<\/p>\n

Harry felt any resemblance they once shared had now “faded.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ROYAL FAMILY NEWSSource: mega A new book claimed Prince William laughed it off when wife Kate Middleton giggled…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":396191,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,63304,533,12,2832,532,2831,7710,519,1598,15961,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-396190","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-couples","12":"tag-kate-middleton","13":"tag-news","14":"tag-prince-of-wales","15":"tag-prince-william","16":"tag-princess-of-wales","17":"tag-royal-families","18":"tag-royal-family","19":"tag-royal-family-news","20":"tag-top-slots","21":"tag-uk-royal-family","22":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115143861038734021","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=396190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396190\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/396191"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=396190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=396190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
