Prince William in the 'Top 10 of sexiest men' as fans joke there's 'something deeply wrong'

Prince William featured on the ‘UK’s Sexiest Men Alive 2024’ list alongside the likes of Tom Holland, Idris Elba and Romesh Ranganathan.

The man next in line for the throne is also one of the most handsome men in the country, apparently. Rather revealing new data has uncovered the fact that Prince William is a particular favorite among wedded British women, after a large group of them were asked to rank UK celebrities based on how “sexy” they are. And while the Aston Villa fan didn’t quite top the list, he did manage to get the better of a host of rather handsome figures in order to secure a podium finish.

Prince William voted third-sexiest man in the UK

The Princess of Wales Kate Middleton may wish to look away now, after it was revealed that her husband is one of the most sought-after men in Britain’s most elite circles.

That is, at least, according to 2000 members of a rather niche dating site. The poll, titled UK’s Sexiest Men Alive 2024, was run by Illicit Affairs, or Illicit Encounters as it is sometimes known – a “discreet and confidential extra marital affairs dating service for women and men” in the UK.

According to a couple of thousand of the site’s female users, William is the third-sexiest man in the UK right now, finishing just ahead of England manager Gareth Southgate, though trailing to Spider-Man heartthrob Tom Holland and the, perhaps surprising, poll winner – former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson.

Fans reacts to the ‘quote’ list

Clearly perturbed by what they had just seen, the good people of Twitter (X) failed to keep their thoughts to themselves, collectively displaying absolute dismay at the opinions of Britain’s least faithful individuals.

“What are they putting in those beans on toast”, quipped one baffled Australian, before another oversees viewer added, bluntly, “Something is very deeply wrong with the UK”.

Expressing their dismay at one of the list’s key snubbings, one enraged user wrote: “Ok I’m neither British nor attracted to men so I might be way off base here, but Dev Patel didn’t even crack the top 10?!”

Shocked by what appears to be a very basic administrative error on the dating site’s part, one less than impressed person wrote: “There’s a lot wrong here but I feel the need to mention that Cillian Murphy isn’t British”.
