Prince Harry Tells Fan 'You're Going To Get Me Into Trouble' For Breaking Royal Protocol

It has been a whirlwind year for the Royals, first Harry and Meghan tied the knot and then the newlyweds announced they're expecting their first baby.

But this was all just the preamble to the real wedding, you know, Princess Eugenie's big day, one I think we'll never forget.

Things didn't stop there either, Sarah Ferguson then dropped the mother of all bombshells when she broke the news to the country that we had all been pronouncing her daughter's name wrong - it's actually said 'YOO-junnee' not 'You-Jee-nie'. Mind. Blown.

Seriously though, the actual Royal Family is back in the news once again but it could be trouble for the nation's sweetheart, Prince Harry, after his latest stunt was caught on camera, according to reports in the MailOnline.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were carrying out their royal duties and greeting well-wishers during their visit to Melbourne, Australia.

One of those in the crowd was teenager India Brown, 19, who had been waiting hours to get a glimpse of the ginger prince and she was determined to make sure it wasn't a wasted journey.

And Harry is never one to let down a fan, so when he spotted the university student and her sign, he went over to have a quick chat - and India took her chance to make a cheeky request.

She asked him for a hug and to her complete shock, he agreed, even though it's against royal protocol.

Speaking at the time, India said: "It was just such an opportunity and I just went for it. I didn't expect it to happen because it's actually against protocol.

"He reciprocated the hug too. It was awesome. He just said 'You are going to get me into trouble'."

She added: "Everything he stands for is amazing. I've loved that family since I was eight and I've followed them around the world."

It wasn't the first time the teenager had come face to face with her hero - she first met him at Royal Ascot in 2014.

She said: "He's such a cool human being."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are in Melbourne as part of a two-week tour of Australia.

It may be against the rules for royals to hug the common folk, but it's not the most shocking thing he's done in his time, though, is it?

You know what I mean.
