Wills' female colleagues are said to be "swooning" over their handsome colleague. "He's a big hit in the office and all the women are trying not to gaze at him," said a source speaking in the Daily Express. "But it's very difficult because he's an absolute charmer."
Workers have even been inspired in their choice of office wear apparently. "It's obvious that all the women have been taking a little more pride in their appearance and wearing their best outfits since he arrived," adds the source.
And it's not just the ladies who've been inspired to new sartorial heights. "He's really impressed everyone - including the men. Everyone's dressing a bit smarter. Everyone made sure their poppies were in their lapels before Armistice Day."
Prince Charles' son, who is accompanied to meetings by his bodyguards, is shadowing top financiers at the bank's headquarters in Canary Wharf before starting training at Sandhurst Military Academy in the New Year.
Bank workers have been banned from using camera phones to stop them snapping the 23-year-old, otherwise senior management has made it clear he is to be treated "like any other intern". So far, however, no has yet dared to demand he do the tea run or any photocopying. |
