Prince Harry has been working hard in Africa over the past three-months in his “dream job” and now new photos have emerged with the royal sporting a beard. Be still our beating hearts. And we thought the last time we would see the young royals facial harry was during his conservation work – but thankfully we were wrong. New snaps of the royal has emerged as he attended the Rugby World Cup welcoming party with his rugged beard, a crisp blue suit, and wow – he looks good!

Harry surprised us on his birthday, showing the world that he’d kept his facial hair while he inspected aircrafts taking part in the 75th anniversary flypast.

He may hate taking a selfie, but snaps of Harry smiling with a beautiful African rhino certainly score a like in our books.

The fifth-in-line to the throne dropped into the African Conservation Experience’s Khulula Care for Wild. It is the largest centre dedicated to caring for orphaned rhinos in South Africa and the royal couldn’t wipe his beam as he met the endangered animals and their caretakers.

Sporting some royally-approved (ginger) stubble, Harry, 30, spent several hours speaking and touring with volunteers. During his visit he made a new bestie with a baby rhino named Warren.

The African Conservation Experience Facebook page shared three snaps of the Prince hanging with the beautiful animals.

“Royalty and Rhino! Friday was probably one of the most exciting days ever for Khulula Care for Wild, as the project received a visit by none other than HRH Prince Harry! He spent the better part of the day with the team, learning about the amazing work that the project does in saving orphaned rhino. Thank you, Prince Harry, for giving your time and voice to raising awareness for rhino conservation,” the caption read.

Harry’s summer sabbatical has revolved around animal welfare and Namibia’s Minister for Environment and Tourism, Mr. Pohamba Shifeta couldn’t express enough how impressed he was with the Prince’s incredible efforts.

“He is really interested in the conversation of our biodiversity. He is passionate about conservation. It can make an impact,” Mr. Pohamba Shifeta told People.

In honour of the re-emergence of Prince Harry and the return of his beard, we look back at all his amazing styles over the years (And believe us, you’ll feel the heat of the African sun looking through these photos!)

Harry has is eye on the prize as his hotness factor reached fever-pitch with a beard and suit!

It seems a summer in African wilderness looks VERY good on you Harry.

Perhaps Harry is suggesting to British Prime Minister, David Cameron to grow a beard in order increase his popularity on the polls.

The Prince sported his handsome facial hair earlier this week on his 31st birthday at a historic flypast ceremony.

After months of not seeing Prince Harry, he has emerged from the African safari sporting a lovely and rather scruffy ginger beard.

Having described working with animals as his “dream job”, Prince Harry has made an appearance on the The African Conservation Experience Facebook page. He dropped into the African Conservation Experience’s Khulula Care for Wild where he got the chance to hang out with orphaned rhinos.

The 30-year-old royal and his adorable beard have been crusading for animal welfare in Africa after the end of his 10-year tenure with the British Military. Harry seems particular fond of his new friend Warren, a baby rhino.

And we must admit that we were particularly happy with the return of our favourite ginger Captain Wales and his beard! In 2013 (pictured) the young royal was also rocking the scruff.

The fifth-in-line to the throne is one of the lucky few that looks incredible with or without a beard.

And we definitely wouldn’t turn down that royally cute smile!

The Prince of Smoulder certainly knows how to make hearts skip a beat.

We adore the fact that after his 10-years of incredible military service, he’s now focusing on another passion: animal welfare.

Of course Princess Diana’s youngest son is a humanitarian at heart.

He adores helping others and always jumps at the chance to give back to those in need.

Along with his long list of charitable endeavors he still manages to keep up with royal duties.

Prince Harry certainly earned his knighthood. We think he channels Prince Arthur whenever he plays polo.

His love of children would make anyone smile.

This baby gets it!

He may be a royal but he is also goofy and is never afraid to make people laugh.

Prince Harry continues to reign supreme in our hearts and we are mighty impressed by his incredible work in Africa. Three cheers for Captain Wales!

Casually hanging with an adorable puppy… It doesn’t get much cuter than this.
