But now reports indicate that the future king of England may be put back in the shadows after the family endured some “very harsh” comments according to one royal expert. The commentator said that while the Prince George has been popular with much of the public, the Royal Family might go back to limiting his exposure.
Prince George Was Mocked
Robert Jobson told Sunrise that Prince George received attention on social media after he was photographed celebrating England’s goal in the final. Jobson said, “With George, he got quite a lot of social media attention. Some were critical about him wearing a shirt and tie like his dad which I thought was very harsh.”
Previous reports indicated that George himself requested to dress like his dad whom he adores.
“He has been very popular but I think they are going to try and keep him out of the limelight a little bit. They are very conscious of that. The pictures were great with his dad when he was celebrating for that all too brief moment.”
Why Are Bullies So Cruel?
But along with the praise he received, Prince George was also mocked on social media.
The Daily Mail’s royal editor Rebecca English posted shared five photos of George looking concerned as the game went to penalties, with the caption, “Prince George sums up the mood of the nation #penalties #Euro2020Final #ENGITA.”
Some social media users replied to the post mocking the young royal.
One Twitter user responded, “Hahahahahaahahahaha hope the little twerp cries into his tie,” and another tweeted, “Doesn’t sum of the feeling in Scotland. And this royal turnout is supposed to make Scotland want to stay in the union? Absolutely not.”
It goes without saying that bullying is wrong, but what kind of person stoops to bullying a 7-year old child?
Some Twitter Backlash Against A Future King
Others were much more charitable, not to mention humane, at seeing George with one tweeting, “I can’t, this is the cutest, I’m melting. Prince George hugging his mom The Duchess of Cambridge at Wembley.”
Another tweeted: “That footage of Prince George celebrating with his mum and dad was perfect.”

Shame on people for bullying that young man who was absolutely adorable.the world is just being sad any more
Why do people have to be so cruel, especially to children?! Prince George looked fine in a suit and tie and why would anyone criticize that? He's adorable, and if C&W keep their children in private from now on, it's only to protect them from stupid, unkind people.
