1 year old Mute Swan still half grey, will that change?

In the park nearby our house the swan cygnets from last year all stayed in the park (is that common?) and I noticed that one of them is still half grey (top half).

As a Cygnet he/she also stayed grey longer as its siblings and now his siblings have all grown out to be the white swan color we know but he seems to be the odd one out.

I was curious if this is something that will in time also change or is he stuck at this grey/white mix? Which i personally find really nice looking.
