Prince Harry stepped out without wife Meghan Markle for an event on Saturday night, and royal fans couldn’t help but ogle the soon-to-be father who was photographed in his British Royal Marines uniform.
The Duke of Sussex is Captain General of the Royal Marines, a role he was given by his grandmother Queen Elizabeth in December 2017. The Duke attended the annual Mountbatten Festival of Music at the Royal Albert Hall in London and opted to wear his impressive uniform for the charity event. The event features musicians and bands from the Royal Marines in aid of charity, with all proceeds going to the Royal Marines Charity and CLIC Sargent.
The Kensington Palace Twitter account shared photos of Harry, captioning: “This evening The Duke of Sussex, Captain General @RoyalMarines is attending the annual Mountbatten Festival of Music, which showcases the @RMBandService and helps raise funds for @TheRMcharity”.
