Following a busy year, Prince William showed off his new beard as he joined the royal family on Christmas Day. We've seen a lot of gorgeous guys grow facial hair in 2008, with Jude Law clinching the title of most popular moustache. Wills grew his beard while on a Special Boat Service exercise last month and Kate Middleton apparently likes it, although it may be coming off soon. I want to know how you feel about Wills' new look, so tell me: do you prefer Prince William clean shaven or with a beard?

Again, I shall comment that this is one moustache I do not like!
1I vote clean shaven, but he could never look bad in my eyes.
2lol littlemunchkin, i agree but he's so lovely i'll let it pass...hehe
3Both !
4The beard ages him.
5CLEAN!
6He's so handsome and fresh-faced when he's clean-shaven. However, the beard makes him look stately and mature.
7He looks a lot more mature with the beard; for once, he doesn't look like a teenager anymore. And, dare I say, he actually looks regal?
I'm reminded of the beards of Prince Michael of Kent, King Edward VII, among others.
8Clean shaven
9Clean shaven, no contest.
10I never got the fuss. Because he's rich? I prefer Harry, anyway.
11He looks old now.
12I agree with you komler about the regal looks, I'd like him to lose the beard and stay as young as possible for a bit longer though. He'll have enough responsibility one day.
13William looks every inch like the future King of England with the beard. He looks like Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, or even his King Edward VII and King George V. He looks regal with the beard, although it's a bit straggly.
14...clean
15he looks GROSS with the beard!
16Gah. With the beard, he looks like my Spanish tutor. Me no likey. (But then, in my mind, he's going to stay perpetually 18, so whatevs.)
17The beard is kind of cool imo. Even though it makes him look like the owner of one of my fav pubs here.
18I'd prefer him with a bit more hair on top of his hair, otherwise he should shave it shorter - gong bald with longish hair isn't a good look.
19I agree with martiandoll, he reminds me of a Russian Tsar with that beard!
I voted clean shaven as my preferred state, although he looks attractive with the facial hair - just less so than without!
20Oh dear, that beard is awful. Maybe it's because I just don't like them on almost any young man.
