The Queen had 70 years to make her mark; the new King will significantly less time to make his. Anyway, does nobody agree with me he looks extremely thin? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpyRabbit 52 Posted March 11, 2023 He’s definitely thinner, though I wouldn’t say extremely so. What did strike me is how much like his grandfather, George VI, he looks now. Since George didn’t make it much past his 56th birthday, that’s possibly not a comparison he’d welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,131 Posted March 11, 2023 Yes, I noticed his resemblance to George VI, particularly in profile, when they were doing the vigil for the Queen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, he's done what they wanted and done it in an elegant way that ensures that his father's title will endure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,131 Posted March 11, 2023 Eddie in Edinburgh yesterday. Looking pretty spry and his resemblance to his grandfather George VI is unmissable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree he has lost a lot of weight, but as a well-padded first-world woman I think we're all so used to seeing fat or chunky folks that we've lost our eye for a healthy normal. Edward could have gone vegan for all we know. I think he's slender but doesn't look ill. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
