Prince Harry has been mocked by pals for waxing his chest since dating Meghan Markle.
The royal, 32, had always sported a rugged, hairy look, until he got together with the actress last summer.
But now his chest is super smooth, leading to jibes from close pals that he’s gone “all LA” now that he’s seeing a glamorous US TV star.
A source said: “Harry’s been seen as a ‘man’s man’ all his adult life, so this has come as shock to his close friends. They all think his new grooming methods are to down to his desire to look his shiny best for Meghan. His chest is now like something you’d see from guys in ‘Baywatch’ — but without the tan.”
Harry and Markle, 35, put on a public show of affection during a pal’s wedding in the Caribbean last week.
They shared a kiss and cuddle on the romantic break, where the pair saw “Skippy” Inskip marry Lara Hughes-Young at the Hopewell Baptist Church in Montego Bay, Jamaica.
The Sun on Sunday reported the couple appeared so in love, many pals at the nuptials, in which Harry was an usher, felt they would tie the knot next.
Harry developed his status as a royal hunk after beefing up to join the British Army in 2006.
Snaps of the Prince wearing military gear, both at home and serving abroad, saw him elevated to one of the UK’s biggest heartthrobs.
And last year he was voted the World’s Hottest Male Royal in a poll of 1,000 women by Crown Clinic in Manchester, Britain’s leading hair transplant center. Prince Carl Philip of Sweden and Monaco’s Andrea Casiraghi made up the top three.
