Prince William is celebrating his milestone birthday of 40 years old on Tuesday 21 June.

The eldest son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, has blossomed from shy teen to future king. He’s also a husband and father, and has been married for 11 years to his wife Kate Middleton. The couple share three children together: Princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte.

But whilst we know him for his balding head of hair, his silly dad dance moves, and his busy brood of children, he hasn’t always been this way.

CELEBRATING HIS 4OTH BIRTHDAY

According to royal insiders, Prince William spent his 40th birthday at home in Kensington Palace with his family. The royal is expected to throw a joint 40th birthday party with his wife in the coming weeks.

According to Woman and Home, Queen Elizabeth has already greenlit William and Kate’s party, set to be held at one of her estates.

PRINCE WILLIAM IN HIS PRIME

Before his responsibilities of royal duties, married life, and the grey hairs that come with fatherhood, Prince William was once a blonde bombshell with piercing blue eyes – with a full head of hair!

In fact, Will, like his dad Charles, was quite the looker!
