Prince Harry Blushes After Woman Makes Cheeky Comment About His Looks

Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markel are back in the news again with another wild tale from their tour of Australia.

The pair are currently half way through a 16-day trip around the country and have certainly been making an impression on fans down under.

As part of the trip the red-headed Duke of Sussex visited Fraser Island, to unveil a plaque at K'gari Forest in dedication to the Queen's Commonwealth Canopy conservation project.

But it wasn't the plaque that was on everybody's mind.

The 34-year-old was about to get into his speech in the secluded spot, when a voice from the crowd was heard saying: "Awww, here we go! He's better looking in person."

And it seemed to be a popular opinion and according to news.com.au another voice agreed and said: "I'll second that!"

Despite being taken aback, the blushing prince managed to compose himself and is reported to have said, 'I'll take that as a compliment', while the amused crowd cheered and he was then able to carry on with the ceremony.

What a pro.

According to reports, the voice belonged to 72-year-old Mally Clarke, an elder of the indigenous Butchulla people, of Queensland.

She said: "I don't know what's gonna come out of my mouth. When he came out I just thought, 'Oooh, he's even better in the flesh. He better tell his wife about me'."

It's the second time this particular plaque has been unveiled, his dad Prince Charles also presented it in Bundaberg, a few months ago.

Harry joked during the presentation: "Luckily we are both highly skilled at unveiling plaques. It runs in the family."

Top royal bants.

But this isn't the first scandal Harry and Meghan have been involved in during their trip, the pair have been breaking royal rules like nobody's business.

Firstly during their visit to Sydney last week, the popular prince took a photograph of Meghan who was posing with a fan -apparently this is a big 'no no' for the Royals as they aren't supposed to give autographs of take photographs and they're definitely not supposed to take someone's phone to take it with.

And the couple haven't stopped posing for photos, selfies and hugging their adoring fans. Harry even sent one young teenager into meltdown after he wrapped his arms around her, during a visit to Melbourne.

What can you do, he's a man of the people.
