being the first of a royal family to have anything to do with a gay
magazine. In a statement released by a top class gay
magazine-Attitude, William is the first member of a royal to have his
photo used as the cover of a gay mag.

or any other reason"
An article in the magazine carries Prince William's remark to
stop all the bullying and discrimination against LGBT. The statement
also added "No one should be made to endure the kind of hate these
young people have endured in their lives".
One part of the Royal's article read:
"The young Lesbian, gay, and transgender people I've met in attitude
magazine, are very brave to be giving hope to people like them who are
being bullied right now". The magazine's chief editor-Mattew Todd
said:
"I am very happy that the future King of the
United Kingdom agrees this must stop and I
would urge parents in particular to raise their
voices in their communities to ensure that every
school protects -- really protects -- all children."
A spokesman also said:
"The Duke of Cambridge is working hard to support the fight. against
bullying and to help break the stigma around mental health. He has
established a
task force on the prevention of cyber bullying and
along with the Duchess of Cambridge and Prince
Harry is leading the Heads Together campaign on mental health and well-being."
The news comes a few days after the Duke and the Duchess of
cambridge signed a condolence for the victims of a gay night club
shooting in Orlando. The attitude magazine was first published 22
years ago and its the most popular gay magazine. Its has featured many
other celebrities on its cover including English footie star David
