A tall, middle-aged man with thinning brown hair and a solemn demeanor. His face shows signs of fatigue and sorrow, with deep-set eyes and a slightly furrowed brow. His posture is upright but carries the weight of grief.
Prince William

A middle-aged man of slender build, with short, neatly combed gray hair and a clean-shaven face. His pale complexion suggests years spent indoors, and his hands are delicate yet precise, accustomed to handling sacred objects.

William, Harry... remember how she loved you. That will never change.
