Inspired by @Ladypenelopeforever ‘s post.

I find that William is photogenic and this is one of the best photos (albeit not candid) of him in a while.

What do you see? For me, I see humour about his lips and the faraway look in his eyes has a touch of sadness. Overall, the Prince has gravitas, he does not need the red folder to signal that. There is also a reddish blush to his skin. Either he caught the sun during the D Day commemoration or he is blushing for some reason

Let us see if we can keep comments positive, friendly and on topic this time. One can hope. 🙏

Hair maketh the man. He was a delight to look at in his teens.

I think he will. Other than Harry most people like him.

Most people don't know him though, do they? I am bowing out of this thread. The thread is about William, and as always a few obsessed people cannot leave Harry out of it.

CurryOnRegardless · 13/06/2024 09:31

I think he’s in the quiet carriage.

Hence not on his phone shouting “I’m on the TRAIN”.

I think I'll leave this thread alone now.
It was started for the single purpose of sniping at William and has attracted a lot of unpleasant people.
Hopefully they'll all keep buzzing around here and one won't encounter them elsewhere.
Same principle as keeping a dung heap away from the house so the blow flues will cluster round that.

Yes. I'm sensing name change from a departed (or at least not contributing any more) poster who lost no chance to snipe at William. Work ethic, temper (as reported by that impeccable source his younger brother) - anything, really.

Looks like a poor man's Phil Spencer.

He was so handsome when young. I'm afraid I don't find him handsome anymore. Not just physically either.

Yes! 😆

Yes! 😆

Yes, you’re right, I can’t unsee the —horrifying— resemblance now!

Yes, the thread was clearly started to attract snipe and derision towards William. The timing of it and most of the replies let's us all know exactly what timezone it was started and directed from.

It's so obvious that the SS do this now whenever the RF do anything now.

"Summer of PR" my arse.

I wonder if the OP is this DingALing?

I see a man in a suit on a train.

Me neither and I used to quite fancy Phil!

Whats the SS?

A branch of the Nazis, I think.

I have no particular agenda to defend William the Conqueror’s hotness, but it really does seem unfair to conclude he was not a heart throb off a fairly rudimentary stem stitch and couching embroidery representation of him in wool yarn …

😍😍😍

When I look at him, all I can think is, [b]#whereiskatemiddleton and #proofoflife[/b]

Really ? His wife is receiving treatment for cancer and that’s what you come up with ??

millymae · 13/06/2024 10:23

No unpleasantness from me.
I see a man watching the world go by with the worries of the world on his shoulders. Like him or loathe him he’s human like the rest of us and by virtue of his birth has ended up where he is. He knows what is expected of him and is doing his best to do it despite the worries he must surely have about the future bearing in mind that both his wife and father are unwell and his relationship with his brother, who you might have thought would be there to support him has all but ended.
I suspect there is a lot more going on in his life than we’ll ever know and to me this photo shows just that.

This is the best comment I have ever seen on Mumsnet.

It's sent me slightly hysterical 😂

You must live in a very different world to me. Most 40+ year men round here don't look like William. Do you live in Chelsea?

Ha ha, no - I'm up north!

SuuzeeeQ · 13/06/2024 10:31

How did the SS get into this conversation?

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 13/06/2024 10:32

Nosferatutu · 13/06/2024 00:05

It’s a good picture, he does look quite thoughtful. You can see Prince Philip in his face there imo. Agree it’s a massive shame about his hair though.

I thought he has a look of Prince Philip, too.

Treelichen · 13/06/2024 10:38

He looks like a bald bloke looking out of a window🤷‍♂️

BemusedAmerican · 13/06/2024 10:39

The SS is the Sussex Squad.

A rich, bald bloke 😬

JL690 · 13/06/2024 10:43

I think the far away gaze means he's wondering when his phone will ring 😁

MorvernBlack · 13/06/2024 10:43

Whoever mentioned a Samsung phone, I'd be fairly sure that's unsurprisingly an iPhone 15 pro/max. Wonder if he even has to pay for his tech.
He's in good shape, very trim, but I guess that's easy if you can have access to a private chef. Otherwise unremarkable.
