Prince William’s Christmas bauble is being criticized by royal fans who say it looks nothing like him

A Christmas tree designed in the image of Prince William has been thrown away by royal fans.

The festive glass decoration, made by Nebraska vintage collectibles company Cody Foster and Co, currently retails for around $25 (£19.76) and features the Prince of Wales in full regalia.

The bizarre Christmas ornament stands about two inches tall and cuts off just below the royal’s chest and elbows, while his face embodies a menacing toothy grin.

The collection includes similar impressions of his wife The Princess of Wales, King Charles and Queen Camilla.

Perhaps the most striking (and insulting) feature of the prince’s bauble is the severely balding head, which extends both forward and backward.

Shiny streaks of reddish-brown hair adorn both sides, while a receding hairline begins in the center of his head, just above a giant circle of bare skin.

A lump can be seen emerging from the balding spot, with a small gold cap attached so customers can attach it to their Christmas trees.

Meanwhile, the prince’s eyes seem to stare blankly out from under two thinly painted eyebrow lines and a wrinkled forehead.

Some fans have also noticed his teeth, which while fully visible, don’t seem to give any indication of the emotion behind the grin.

The ornament has drawn harsh criticism from many who make no bones about pronouncing it.

“This is scary,” said one.

Another wrote: ‘They made Willem so dirty.’

“Why is his hair sparkly?” asked another.

One person commented: ‘I’m glad I’m not famous and people don’t make me merchandise.’

Another said: ‘Where could you find this abomination? Because I might need this for my friends party [friends-Christmas] ornament exchange.

“They fixed his messed up teeth too,” he said.

Clearly confused, another asked: “This is supposed to be William?”

“Try again,” said another.

The King’s Ball appears to be the most popular and is already sold out at most sales points

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have been banned from the royal series.

The King’s Ball appears to be the most popular and is already sold out at most sales points.

The monarch’s decoration shows him in full white and purple royal robes, as well as a crown set with diamonds, rubies and other sparkling stones.

The Princess of Wales’s Christmas ball features the princess in a white dress adorned with glittering diamonds. She also wears a tiara and has a sleek bun, albeit darker than her regular brunette hairdo.

Meanwhile, the statue for Camilla, Queen Consort, wears a purple crown, a white Christmas-themed dress and a shiny diamond necklace.

All ornaments are 12 cm (five inches) high and are made by Cody Foster and Co, based in Valentine, Nebraska, USA.
