Historic Hunk of The Week
Regarding the age of the current "Hunk of The Week", I am opting for Duke Johann Georg III, Elector of Saxony, as the next one.
In September 1683 in the face of the siege of Vienna, Saxony, had answered the call for a European Alliance, supported by Pope Innocent XI, as well. The devout Protestant Johann Georg led himself a 10,400 man army against the Turks. Called "an honourable man of straight heart" by Polish King Jan Sobieski, the Elector of Saxony, at whose request the battle call had been changed from "Mary Help" to "Jesus and Mary Help", showed extraordinary personal courage on the left wing in the Battle of Vienna, for which neither the Catholic Emperor nor his own Protestant estates ever thanked him.
The entire story is here.
So does he qualify? ;-)

Once an apologist for Islam, his christening during the Vatican's 2008 Easter vigil service in St. Peter's Basilica presided over by Pope Benedict XVI, made headlines.
