Campaigners call for Royal Baby to continue hirsute tradition of Prince Harry
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that it hopes that the baby born to Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, early on Tuesday, will continue the recent hirsute tradition of the male side of the British Royal Family
The father Prince Harry is a consistent beard wearer even declining to shave his beard for his wedding to Meghan despite pressure from Establishment pogonophobes.
While both Prince Philip and Prince Charles wore beards in their youth they have remained resolutely clean shaven in recent decades. Harry has confirmed a distinctive break with the beardless tradition and the campaigners say they hope that the new baby will continue it.
BLF organiser Keith Flett said, while the new Royal baby may not have been born with a beard it is to be hoped that he will be given every encouragement to grow and maintain one at the earliest opportunity.
