Popular British gay magazine Atttiude just revealed the cover star of their upcoming July issue, and it is none other than his Royal Highness Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.
Besides looking incredibly dashing, the proud father of two and husband to the always fabulous Kate Middleton is making history as the first ever British royal to appear on the cover of an LGBT publication. And if that wasn't enough cause to celebrate, the Prince also went on the record to talk about why it's never okay to bully someone — especially queer youth — based on their sexuality:
“No one should be bullied for their sexuality or any other reason and no one should have to put up with the kind of hate that these young people have endured in their lives. The young gay, lesbian and transgender individuals I met through Attitude are truly brave to speak out and to give hope to people who are going through terrible bullying right now. Their sense of strength and optimism should give us all encouragement to stand up to bullying wherever we see it. What I would say to any young person reading this who’s being bullied for their sexuality: don’t put up with it – speak to a trusted adult, a friend, a teacher, Childline, Diana Award or some other service and get the help you need. You should be proud of the person you are and you have nothing to be ashamed of.”
*swoons* Anyone else feel the sudden urge to move to the UK now? No? Just me? Okay.
