Harry is the first member of the royal family to make an official visit to Stewart Island, and shortly after arriving stopped and spoke to a group of local women who were there to welcome him. "You're such a small community. Is this all of you?" he joked. As he shook hands with one of the ladies, the kind-hearted Prince then commented: "You're freezing cold, aren't you? Sorry we were delayed, we got held up."
