Prince William has once again claimed the title of the world’s sexiest bald man, a distinction that does not equate to People’s Sexiest Man Alive. His evolving hairstyle has captured public attention, proving that he remains appealing regardless of his hair status. As reported by the Daily Mail, William outperformed notable personalities like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Terry Crews, much like he did in 2023. The PR agency, Reboot Online, noted the rise in searches linking William to the term “sexy.”
While these accolades may have inflated William’s confidence, the same cannot be said for his brother, Prince Harry. Although technically not bald, Harry’s thinning hair has been a subject of public interest lately. This was humorously highlighted on the game show “Family Feud,” where Harry’s hair loss was the basis for one of the segments, referring to him as “balding” (via New York Post). Such a description is far from flattering.
If only he could have participated in the sexiest bald man contest—too bad he didn’t make the cut.
Prince Harry’s Ongoing Hair Loss Journey
Despite not winning any titles, Prince Harry’s hair seems to be in better condition than his brother William’s. Nonetheless, public scrutiny surrounding his hair loss continues. A report from Radar indicates that Harry is struggling with this reality. Hair transplant expert Jacques Abrahamian suggests that genetics are primarily responsible for Harry’s hair issues, noting a family history of Male Pattern Baldness from their father, Prince Charles.
Even if the situation isn’t ideal, Harry has shown the ability to lighten the mood about his thinning hair. During the Invictus Games in 2022, he joked about his hair loss while speaking to a competitor, saying, “You’ve got a lot more to be done there,” and when commenting on the condition of the competitor’s hair, he remarked, “But you’re slower than me. I’m already … I’m doomed” (via People).
This lightheartedness may serve as a reminder of why Harry might feel slighted for being excluded from the sexiest bald man rankings. Conversely, William’s title has often drawn mixed feedback, so perhaps the selection committee is simply sidestepping potential backlash.
