To say "more prouder" would be incorrect. Both the word 'more' and the suffix

'-er' are indications of different degrees of the word, therefore both of them together are unnecessary and not proper. Both "prouder" and "more proud" are technically correct, however "more proud" is both the clearer of the two and the most correct.

The comparative form of proud can be in two ways.The morphologic form is prouder. The periphrastic form is more proud.To a lesser degree, these forms even combine in expressions such as more prouder, gramatically accepted.

Instead of saying "more prouder," you should say "prouder." Adding "more" is redundant because "prouder" is the comparative form of "proud."
