The Golden Ratio, represented by the number 1.618 and the Greek letter Phi (Φ), judges a person's attractiveness based on the symmetry of their face.
Dr. Julian De Silva, a plastic surgeon based in England, used facial mapping techniques to analyze the features and proportions of male and female members of the royal family. Speaking with The Daily Mail and The Mirror, he ranked the royals' beauty according to their "accuracy" to the Golden Ratio. (De Silva also ranked the actors who have played James Bond earlier this year.)
Here's how Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and other royals stack up.
In the men's category, Mike Tindall came in at fourth place with 76.7% accuracy.
Mike Tindall is the husband of Zara Tindall, the queen's second-oldest grandchild. As a former rugby star, multiple breaks have resulted in a crooked nose, but his full lips scored the highest out of all the male royals.
Peter Phillips ranked third with a mark of 80.4%.
The son of Princess Anne, Peter Phillips has "perfectly equal gaps between his mouth, eyes, and forehead" De Silva told The Daily Mail.
Prince William's facial proportions came in second place at 80.9%.
Prince William has the highest score for the position of his nose and eyes, but the gap between his nose and lips combined with his long face caused him to come up just shy of the number one spot.
Prince Harry took the crown as the best-looking male royal with a score of 81.4%.
"Harry scored particularly highly for the shape of his chin, the near-perfect length of his face, the gap between his nose and lips and his eye spacing," De Silva told The Daily Mail. The only deduction was for his thin lips.
In the women's ranking, Princess Eugenie took fifth place with 79.3% accuracy.
Princess Eugenie received the lowest score for her lips out of the other princesses, but her eye positioning is on point.
Her sister, Princess Beatrice, scored 80.7%.
Princess Beatrice's nose is "perfectly shaped," De Silva told The Mirror.
Zara Tindall's Golden Ratio score was an accuracy of 81.6%.
Zara Tindall came up just a few points shy of Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.
Kate Middleton came in second place with 86.8%.
"Kate stands out stands out for having a perfect gap between her nose and lips and very strong eye spacing," De Silva told The Mirror.
Royal bride-to-be Meghan Markle's Golden Ratio score was the highest at 87.4%.
Meghan Markle's nose is almost perfectly shaped according to the Golden Ratio, scoring 98.5%. Her v-shaped chin also earned high marks.
According to the Golden Ratio, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are the most attractive royal couple.
As if they weren't already cute enough together, they both scored the highest in their respective categories.
That's not the only reason that their upcoming wedding will make history — their nuptials will be unlike any royal wedding before it and they've both been known to break royal protocol.
