Prince Harry once had a hilarious reaction to veteran royal photographer Arthur Edwards' comment about his hair. The 42-year-old is now living somewhere in the Cotswolds with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their children, six years after they stepped down from royal life.

Mr Edwards has previously spoken fondly of Harry, recalling many memories from his decades of photographing the family members. Speaking of the former working royal, Mr Edwards recalls a funny moment when Harry confronted him after he had discussed him on television.

He shared that the moment took place during a visit to New Zealand. He told the latest episode of The Royal Uncensored that he appeared on a television show and shared a comment he overheard Harry tell a lady during the visit that he was "going bald" like his father, King Charles.

He then added that during a visit there a few days later, people asked Harry to put his painted hand on the wall to "remember his visit to the club", and he used his purple-painted hand to plant it on Arthur's head.

Arthur then added: "So there I am starting everybody starting now taking pictures of me. I mean I just what can you do? You just got to laugh."

He then recalled how he then asked Harry why he had done that, he added: "I said, 'What'd you do that for, Harry?'.

Harry replied it was because "I didn't want you to tell the whole world" about the comment he'd made to the woman about going bald.

Harry previously spoke about his hair during an appearance on the Joe Marler Will See You Now podcast earlier this year. He discussed his grooming routine, which prompted him to acknowledge that he has less hair on his head than he used to. He made the admission with a smile on his face.

After being asked about his grooming routine, Harry said: “I trim my beard every five, six days just to keep it a little bit tidy. Nothing really happening on top (pointing to his head).

Harry stepped out in Brussels with Meghan Markle yesterday.

The Duke of Sussex delivered a rousing speech on child safety online to the European Parliament. Meghan was due to join him on stage for the speech, but just hours before their appearance, it was reported that she would no longer do so.

This was due to her not feeling "strong enough" in the days after her father's arrest for possession of child abuse images.
