Excited members of the public crowded round the VIP guests, desperate to snap a picture on their camera phones. However, the well-known duo generating the excitement weren't pop stars or singers – but Princes William and Harry.
As they made their way through the throng the pair smiled and bantered with spectators who had turned up to watch them in a charity polo mach.

The second-in-line had the day before celebrated his 32nd birthday privately with his wife the Duchess of Cambridge, Neé Kate Middleton, and their son Prince George.
William took part in the polo match on Sunday the same day stories circulated that he would be paid £40,000 to work part time as an air ambulance pilot.
He will reportedly take a job in East Anglia and he is more likely to live on the Queen’s Sandringham Estate in Norfolk with Kate and George than at their Kensington Palace home in London.

According to the Sunday Mirror, an announcement confirming the Prince's new role is expected within the next few days.
William stepped down from the search and rescue service last year and embarked on a year to work out his future path.
During this time William studied a course at Cambridge University designed to help him with his role running the Duchy of Cornwall — a portfolio of land, property and investments he will inherit from his father Prince Charles.
