I’m not sure that I’ve ever seen a dancer more perfectly suited to play Romeo. 😍

[@jonolson1965]

What a grounded, charming, well spoken man who speaks from his heart about his ballet career that he absolutely loves. I hope I’m able to see one of his performances.

[@sharonkeogh7036]

William is such a gorgeous dancer - when he's onstage your eyes are drawn to him. Always beautiful lines. I would live to see him dance with Yasmine Naghdi one day....❣
