Serious stuff from England: Prince William has a beard. The 26-year-old stepped out in public with it for the first time yesterday to attend Christmas church services, the Scotsman reports. He grew it during a recent stint with the British navy in Barbados and keeps postponing a pledge to shave it off. One onlooker even gave it a kiss.
"It's a good move for (William) because he needs a bit of hardening up," says Jonathan Pease, style director of Australia's Next Top Model. (More Prince William stories.)
