Prince Harry proved more of a winner with the girls than at polo in a game near his father’s Highgrove estate. The 16-year-old’s team lost to Prince Charles’s side Foxcote, at the Beaufort Polo Club in Westonbirt, Gloucestershire.
It was the first time father and son had faced each other on opposing teams since Harry took up the sport three years ago.
At the prize-giving afterwards, the young prince showed good sportsmanship, smiling at pony-tailed opponent Nina Yeast. He then engaged in some friendly horseplay with three teenage girls who had come to see the game. After chatting and sipping drinks by their VW Golf, he picked one of them up and swung her around.
The bubbly blonde could hardly contain her delight at the royal antics and was later treated to a kiss on the cheek as her pals looked on more than a little enviously.
"They were very tactile. They both seemed friendly and obviously knew each other well," said an onlooker.
