The brothers have both played polo for many years, with the Duke of Sussex taking up the sport on a professional level since moving to California, where he now plays for the Los Padres team.
Meghan Markle can often be seen by the side of the pitch, cheering her husband on in his matches, and has even dubbed herself a Pwife (polo wife), according to Prince Harry's teammate Nacho Figueros' wife Delfina Blaquier. We wonder if Duchess Catherine considers herself a Pwife too?
