Just like most men all around the world, Prince Harry is also suffering from male pattern baldness. His father Prince Charles and brother Prince William are also dealing with this incurable condition.
While this is a hard truth that men had to face, Prince Harry is, reportedly, feeling “under pressure” from Meghan Markle to look good. The Duchess of Sussex was a former actress before meeting the Prince, so she had always been aware of how important one’s physical appearance is.
"Obviously with Meghan Markle who is stunning and a princess and on the front of every mainstream, female publication for being incredibly attractive and glamorous,” Spencer Stevenson from SpexHair.com said. "I can only imagine that's put additional pressure on Harry to keep up appearances with his own physical appearance, definitely."
Since hair loss can be a result of many things, Spencer Stevenson pointed out that Prince Harry’s is more on hereditary and not due to stress like many may have assumed.
"His hair loss is one hundred percent genetic and not stress-related at all,” he said. “Look at his family gene pool - male pattern baldness is a trait through the generations.”
Spencer Stevenson believes that Prince Harry’s receding hairline may have pushed him to get married as soon as possible. He may be a prince, but his baldness is possibly making him insecure.
"I think young men may rush into marriages because they feel as though no one will be interested in them once their receding hairline worsens,” he said. “To many, he was one of the most desirable bachelors in the world, but if he’d had niggling insecurity like that which comes with hair loss, it could very well have influenced him to make a snap decision on marriage."
Meanwhile, a previous report claimed that Meghan Markle ordered Prince Harry to lose some extra weight as they set their eyes on the entertainment industry. The Duchess of Sussex, allegedly, wants to make a good impression when visiting her A-lister acquaintances and demands her husband to keep up with his appearance.
“He’s gained a few pounds lately, especially around the face, and Meg’s ordered him to sort it out,” the source said. “That means getting back to the gym, cutting back on carbs and teaming up with a trainer every other day at the very least.”
The insider added that Meghan Markle also wanted to give Prince Harry a wardrobe makeover to fit the Hollywood elite vibe. “She wants them to look like a million dollars when they show up to dinner with the likes of George and Amal, so he’ll need to work on his style too and make his wardrobe less stuffy. Meghan’s organizing it all and Harry’s taking her direction,” the source added.
