I got floods of tears, the first one I got tears, so I have to shave it off.

During a new interview, the Prince of Wales was asked about his facial hair.

He told reporters: “Well Charlotte didn’t like it the first time. I got floods of tears, the first one I got tears, so I have to shave it off. And then I grew it back.

“I thought, hang on a second and I convinced her it was going to be okay.”

William was also asked about his relaxed demeanour in Cape Town.

William added: “It’s interesting you say that, because I couldn’t be less relaxed this year, so it’s very interesting you’re all seeing that.”

This week, William opened up about his wife Kate following her cancer battle this year.
