Prince William ranked the world's "Hottest Young Royal"

Prince William may be loosing his hair but he's still number one to those who matter. The heir to the heir of the British throne has been voted the Hottest Young Royal in the world by Forbes.com. Forbes said: 'Though Prince William was born with gilded birthrights to fame, wealth and beauty, he had to wait 25 years for another title. The Prince's international intrigue and unparalleled media attention earned him the top spot this year on Forbes' annual ranking of the world's Hottest Young Royals.' The list was compiled on the basis of international Web and media presence, family wealth and marital status (only unmarried royals under the age of 35 were considered).

William was followed on the list of who's who in the royal world by his brother (and some would say more than equal in the hot stakes) Prince Harry. The list was as follows:

1. Prince William of Wales
2. Prince Harry of Wales
3. Zara Phillips
4. Princess Beatrice of York
5. Charlotte Casiraghi of Monaco
6. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum (Crown Prince of Dubai)
7. Princess Victoria of Sweden
8. Prince Azim of Brunei
9. Prince Carl Philip of Sweden
10. Andrea Casiraghi (Monaco)
11. Prince Albert von Thurn und Taxis (Germany)
