Speaking to local 81-year-old Somaya Ebrahim, who asked where the little one was, the parents let locals know that he was sleeping, revealing that the long flight to South Africa had tired him out.

‘He’s not grouchy, just exhausted,’ said Prince Harry.

He also said that the little royal was already loving the South African landscape, revealing that he was impressed by local landmark Table Mountain.
