At a local pub in Peckham, London, royal fans were reportedly in for a shocking surprise when they thought to see Prince Harry enjoying a pint.
However, this brief, stunning reaction ebbed quickly after it was dawned upon them that the Duke of Sussex was actually a waxwork.
So superb was the craft that many onlookers believed the rebel prince to be real, according to MyLondon.
Madame Toussand, known for fantastic wax models, was behind the waxwork, as they lent the model to the Prince's namesake pub on his 40th birthday celebrations.
On the reactions of the customers, Alan Day, pub manager, told Southwark News they were “quite amused” by the surprise encounter, and many were shocked by Harry’s 6’ 1” stature.
“I never realised how big Harry was,” he continued. “The Prince Harry was pretty good and the detail was pretty impressive.”
In the meantime, King Charles, for the first time since 2021, wished his son publicly on his birthday.
