Prince Harry’s baldness is once again the subject of ridicule in the British press. The son of King Charles and Princess Diana has been suffering from incipient baldness for several years.
However, the Duke of Sussex, 38, has done everything in his power to disguise the hair loss, including digitally altering some of his photos, which ended up becoming the subject of ridicule in the British press.
Photos altered to hide Prince Harry’s baldness
The new photos that are causing controversy are the new images published on the official website of the American mental health technology company “Better Up”, of which Harry is Impact Director since 2021.
In the photo, Prince Harry’s hair appears to have been retouched using the photo editing tool Photoshop to give the impression that he has more hair than he actually does.
Specifically, it would have been used to disguise his incipient baldness in the area of his hair. This is not the first incident, as something similar happened in 2021 when he appeared on the cover of Time magazine, generating great virality on social media.
Prince Harry’s baldness has been the subject of speculation and scathing comments for years.
Despite his privileged position as a royal, the press has not missed an opportunity to highlight his hair loss.
News sites such as the Daily Mail, the Mail On Sunday, and the Mail On Line all refer to the particular image of Harry with his hair.
In fact, the Daily Mail decided to compare how Harry’s hair looked during his last public appearances in Asia with his new portrait for the American society in which he works. In this way, it is evident a great difference in density and color between the two cases.
Prince Harry’s new haircut?
But that’s not all, the British portal has also decided to harshly criticize the prince.
The media stressed that this is a hypocritical gesture on his part since they do not consider it logical that a person dedicated to “help create a positive impact on people’s lives” has decided to change his physical appearance.
The consequences? To create complexes or similar behavior in others, they argue.
The British press has also not forgotten Harry’s perceived mockery of his brother Prince William’s hair loss, which he mentions in his book “Spare”.
However, there are those who claim that the Duke of Sussex’s makeover could be due to a simple new haircut.
