Emily was on her mother Hayley’s lap when the toddler reached into Harry’s popcorn bag and helped herself to the contents.

Harry initially appeared not to notice but, as his young neighbor went back for more multiple times, he eventually cottoned on. The prince then offered some to his companion before playfully showing her a piece only to stuff it in his own mouth.

The charming interaction went viral on TikTok just before this year’s Invictus Games tournament, in Germany this September.

A video of the moment was liked more than 389,000 times and viewed over 6.7 million times after it was posted with the message: “Prince Harry’s popcorn swiped by toddler.”

One reply read, “That’s a king,” while another user posted: “He’s like his mom.” A third response was: “Happy to say that’s my Prince.”

Harry is preparing to bring the games to Düsseldorf, Germany, between September 9 and 16. This will be the biggest event of his year, apart from King Charles’ coronation and the release of his book Spare.

The prince is also due to release a docuseries about the games called Heart of Invictus, his third project for Netflix.

In 2021, Harry said: “This series will give communities around the world a window into the moving and uplifting stories of these competitors on their path to the Netherlands next year.
