He’s known for being a bit of a larrikin and once again, our favourite flame-haired royal, Prince Harry, has proven he has a great sense of humour.

During a recent trip to Japan for the Rugby World Cup, the father-of-one posed with a group of school children who were waving English flags.

In video taken during the meeting (watch in the player above), Harry is all smiles as he take a photo with the group.

After the picture is taken, he turns to some of the schoolgirls who are giggling, while calling him “handsome”.

In a perfect perfect response (and showing off his comedic timing), Harry points to his wedding band and remind the girls that he is, in fact, married.

In a post shared on the official Sussex Royal Instagram account, a picture of Harry with the group was featured alongside one of him meeting some “Paralympic hopefuls”.

“The Duke of Sussex has arrived in Japan ahead of today’s Rugby World Cup 2019 Final,” the post was captioned.

“First stop is a visit to the new Para Arena training centre, a fully accessible venue to provide equal opportunities to the local community.

“The Duke met with local Paralympic hopefuls as they participated in training sessions including wheelchair rugby, boccia, and powerlifting. This was especially meaningful to His Royal Highness, who five years ago founded @WeAreInvictusGames – which uses the power of sport to inspire recovery and support rehabilitation of wounded veterans who have physical or mental injuries.”

According to the post, “Japan is the first-ever country to host two Paralympic Games” and next year, Tokyo will welcome over 4,000 athletes from around the world.

“Thank you for the warm welcome, and good luck with all the training and preparation! We look forward to seeing you all compete in the @Tokyo2020 Paralympic Games next year!”

Late last week, clearly elated over England’s triumphant clash with New Zealand’s All Blacks in the World Cup semi-final, Prince Harry decided to fly to Japan, where he watched his home country take on South Africa (and unfortunately lose) in the grand final.

The news was confirmed by Buckingham Palace, stating that Harry would be in attendance at the match on Saturday, November 2.

But he wasn’t the only member of his very famous family to fly over to watch the rugby.

Prince Harry joined his cousins Zara and Mike Tindall, who have been taking in the sights – and plenty of rugby to boot – while on holidays.

Mike has clearly been having a grand time in the Asian country, taking to his new Instagram account to share some candid snaps from the trip.

Unfortunately, England weren’t victorious in their plight for the World Cup Championship and were defeated by South Africa in the grand final 32-12.

While a big loss for the country, we can only imagine that the royals had a marvellous time!
