When you think of famous redheads, we can bet there is one in particular
that wins the crown – the one and only Prince Harry. However, he is not the only member of
royalty who has donned luscious fiery locks.
In honour of International Kiss A
Ginger Day on 12 January, here are some other royals who have wowed with
red hair:
Sarah, Duchess of York
The Duchess of York’s fiery red hair has solidified her place as
one of the most famous redheads amongst the modern royal family. Mother to two
other gorgeous royal redheads, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, it is clear where the Princesses get their
similar stunning colour and complexion.
Prince Harry
Although already carrying official titles such as the Duke of
Sussex, Prince Harry is also regarded as the King of
Redheads, probably. Just another hefty title to add to the CV.
Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor
It was the question on everyone’s lips the second Meghan and Harry announced their pregnancy – ‘Will their little one inherit his
dad’s signature red hair?’ Well, the question was finally answered in
2019.
In photos released since then, including the Sussexes’ 2021 Christmas card, it’s clear that Archie has inherited his
dad’s red locks.
Princess Beatrice
Princess Beatrice’s natural strawberry blonde locks are that
perfect mixture of red and blonde that probably couldn’t be achieved at the
salon. Typically, she wears her long light red locks loose and often
accessorised with either a fascinator or stylish headband that we immediately
attempt to replicate.
The Duchess of Cambridge
Although famous for her enviable chocolate brunette shade, she opted for
a slight lift in her hair colour when she attended Wimbledon in 2015. Embracing
the summer months, the Duchess of Cambridge revealed her new auburn hair colour
which had everyone running to the hairdressers in need of a new ‘do.
The Duchess of Sussex
Yes, that’s right. It may come as a shock since we are so used to
Megan’s signature brunette locks, but the Duchess of Sussex once took inspiration from her redheaded
husband when she added a red tint to her hair back in 2012 – and the
results were stunning!
Princess Eugenie
Princess Eugenie may have waved her hand at the tradition when
it came to wearing a veil on her wedding day but luckily for us, it meant we had an even better view of her
hair transformation. Revealing her red-tinted locks on the day of her wedding,
Eugenie showcased the gorgeous shade in an elegant updo, complemented by the
emerald jewels on her headpiece and earrings that made us green with envy.
Princess Madeleine of Sweden
The always stylish Princess of Sweden dyed her then brunette hair a fiery
auburn back in 2011. With the red hair shade complimenting her piercing blue
eyes, Princess Madeleine showcased a royal glow with her experimental hair
shade and we definitely think she should bring it back one day!
Princess Lalla Salma of Morocco
Princess Lalla Salma of Morocco is famous for her long curly
auburn locks that others could only dream of achieving. The stunning redhead’s
hairstyle is so unusual for a royal you’d be forgiven for thinking she was a
real-life Disney princess – Princess Merida, Ariel, is that you?
