Prince Harry Proves His Identity to Doubtful Student

During a visit to St Vincent's Catholic Primary School in London on Wednesday, March 20, Prince Harry found himself in a humorous situation with one of the students.

As the Duke of Sussex planted a tree as part of his family's tradition, he was greeted by excited pupils chanting his name.

However, one young student named Emmanuel Osei, aged four, tapped the royal and asked, “when is Prince Harry coming?”

The Duke replied, “but I am Prince Harry,” to which Emmanuel asked again, “when is the real Prince Harry coming?”

The puzzled boy was eventually convinced that it was the real Harry, and he was rewarded with a high five from the prince.

This hilarious encounter isn't the first time kids have been skeptical about Prince Harry's title.

In an interview with People magazine in 2016, the prince revealed that children often don't believe he's actually a prince because he doesn't always look the part.

“Every time I get to meet kids and they have been told a real-life prince is coming.

The disappointment on their faces when they see me without a crown or cape,” he said with a grin.

Ahead of traveling to the Invictus Games in Orlando, Florida, the prince said at the time, “I'm worried because the American kids, especially next to Disney World, are going to be thinking, you ain't no prince, you ain't dressed like a prince, you're having a laugh.

So I am going to pack a crown and a cap this time and some funny pointy-toed shoes.

I'm going to sign the crown out.”

During his visit to the primary school, Prince Harry was also seen miming a baby bump on his belly, likely telling the kids about his wife Meghan's pregnancy, according to a clip shared by journalist Valentine Lowe of The Times.

The schoolchildren greeted the Duke of Sussex with sweet welcome messages on crafted banners.

One even included a nod to the future baby Sussex, reading, “Good luck with the baby.”

The prince's visit to the primary school coincided with a tree planting day, in support of the Queen's Commonwealth Canopy and Woodland Trust.

The tree the prince planted will form part of the new forest school to help educate the students at the primary school about the vital importance trees have in our world.

Prince Harry is no stranger to interacting with kids, and he often makes it a point to engage with them during his public appearances.

However, his encounters with children who doubt his royal status are always amusing and endearing.

In the interview with People magazine, Prince Harry also shared how he loves interacting with kids and that they often ask him if he has a crown or a castle.

He said that he tells them that he doesn't have a castle, but he does have a house.

He added that kids are always fascinated by the fact that he is a prince, and he enjoys seeing their reactions when they meet him.

It's clear that Prince Harry has a natural way with children, and his playful and down-to-earth personality makes him relatable to kids of all ages.

His visit to St Vincent's Catholic Primary School was a success, and the students were thrilled to meet the real Prince Harry.

The Duke of Sussex has been busy in recent months, with his upcoming fatherhood and his work with various charities.

He recently attended the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey with his wife Meghan Markle and other members of the royal family.

Prince Harry's visit to St Vincent's Catholic Primary School was a reminder that even though he is one of the most recognizable men on the planet, not everyone knows exactly what he looks like.
