Heavily bearded Prince Harry asked to shave by family and friends

Prince Harry’s family and friends are reportedly asking him to shave off his beard, which he grew on his trek to the South Pole before Christmas.

However, the 29-year-old prince has refused to fulfill their wishes despite people teasing him for his ginger facial fuzz, the Daily Star reported.

Meanwhile, a Ministry of Defence insider said that Harry, who has landed a new job as a military events co-coordinator after leaving his Apache helicopter pilot job, has been off work and allowed to keep the fuzz.

But as soon as Harry gets back to work the beard is coming off as per Army rules which require men to be clean shaven, the source added.
