Alright folks, let me tell you something that's making waves across the pond. Rob Lowe, the handsome star we all know and love, found himself in the middle of a bit of a storm after making some not-so-kind remarks about Prince William's hairline. It all went down during an interview with the U.K.'s The Telegraph. When asked if he thinks he's more or less vain than British men, Rob didn't hold back. Let’s dive into what he said and how royal fans reacted.
Rob’s Bold Take on Prince William’s Hair
Rob Lowe, who has been wowing audiences since his Parks and Recreation days, didn’t mince words during the interview. At 55 years old, Rob joked that British men set a “low bar” when it comes to vanity. And then he went there, bringing up Prince William. “I mean, the future king of your country let himself lose his own hair,” Rob quipped. He even admitted that watching Prince William's hairline recede was one of the "great traumatic experiences" of his life. “He’s going to be the f–king king of England!” Rob exclaimed, emphasizing his disbelief. It’s like he couldn’t wrap his head around how someone destined for such a grand role could let their hair go.
Rob Offers Advice for the Future King
After poking fun at the royal, Rob offered some unsolicited advice. He mentioned that there’s medication available to combat hair loss. “The first glimmer that a single hair of mine was going to fall out, I was having stuff mainlined into my f–king veins. And that’s what I did for the next 30 years,” he shared. It’s like he was saying, “Hey, William, you could have done something about this!” But let’s be real, not everyone agrees with Rob’s take.

The Backlash Rolls In
As soon as the interview hit the internet on Tuesday, May 28, the backlash started rolling in. Social media was ablaze with comments criticizing Rob Lowe for his remarks about the Duke of Cambridge. One Twitter user fired back, “Rob Lowe should keep his opinions about British men to himself. Both he and his wife are full of Botox and fillers. There’s nothing wrong with being a natural man.” Another fan chimed in, “Hey Robbie, some men who would be king are secure enough with their masculinity that they don’t care to take pills for 30 years to save their hair. You’re obviously not one of them. I think William is hotter without hair than you are with.” Oof, that’s a burn.
One royal enthusiast even highlighted William’s advocacy against bullying. “@RobLowe did you even stop to think how it would make William feel for you to draw attention to this? Are you NOT listening to William’s mental health statements?” they asked. It’s clear that many fans are standing up for the royal, defending his choice to embrace his natural look.
William’s Sense of Humor Shines Through
Thankfully, Prince William has a great sense of humor and knows how to laugh at himself. When he and Kate Middleton introduced their first child, Prince George, to the world back in 2013, William joked about the baby’s hair. “He’s got way more hair than me, thank God!” he quipped. It’s moments like these that remind us why people adore the royal family. They have a way of keeping things light-hearted, even when the spotlight is intense.
