REVEALED: The one thing The Queen dislikes about Prince Harry

You'll never guess what it is! - by Zoe Burrell
  • 21 Feb 2019

With his cheeky smile and good looks, most of the world think that Prince Harry is perfect.

 

But, it turns out that there is one thing that his granny, The Queen, dislikes about the royal and you won’t believe what it is.

 

His beard!

 

Yep, while we think that Harry’s beard makes him roguishly handsome, his grandma doesn’t think so.

Harry began to grow out his beard when he began military training.

In her 2017 biography "Harry: Life, Loss, and Love”, author Katie Nichol reveals that the prince started to grow his facial when he began his military training, but The Queen disapproved.

And, this isn’t the first time we have heard about her majesty’s opinions on the matter.

A royal insider previously told Hello! Magazine: "The rest of the family liked it and were taking the mickey, especially his cousin Zara who dubbed him Prince Hairy.

Harry even sported a beard at his wedding to Meghan.

“But the Queen soon let her displeasure be known.

“She doesn't mind royal men growing beards when they are away in the armed forces or out in the wild like Harry was in the Antarctic, but she expects them to be clean-shaven when they get home."

Despite granny’s displeasure, it appears that his beard isn’t going away anytime soon – and we like it that way!
