This Photo Has Everybody Talking About Prince Harry And Prince Charles

What does it all mean... - by Grace Back
  • 09 Aug 2019

There's no denying Prince Harry makes headlines. From his marriage to Meghan Markle, now formally the Duchess of Sussex, to his sweet newborn son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, the 34-year-old royal is one of the most talked-about people on the planet. 

Watch below: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle release first pictures of Archie's christening. 

Despite almost everything Harry does making viral news, the royal made headlines this week for a different reason and it's all to do with his father, Prince Charles. 

The Duke of York posted a photo to his Instagram account this week to commemorate the Queen Mother’s birthday, with the snap being a black and white throwback shot of the Queen Mother laughing alongside Prince Charles, Princess Anne and the Duke himself, Prince Andrew.

"In 1960, to celebrate [the Queen Mother’s] 60th Birthday, this photo was taken at Clarence House, and features a 6-month-old Prince Andrew sitting on her knee, Prince Charles, Princess Anne and a Corgi," the caption reads. "Until the accession of Prince Albert, The Duke of York as King George VI in 1936, Queen Elizabeth was The Duchess of York." 

But it wasn't the caption that got people talking instead it was Prince Charles, who commenters were quick to point out looked the spitting image of a young Prince Harry.

"Wow. I see Prince Harry in Charles…amazing", commented one user, while another posted: "That is Prince Harry’s twin. This could be Prince Harry, he looks just like his dad." 

This isn't the first time a royal photograph has gone viral for showing just how alike Harry and Charles are.
