Britain's His Royal Highness Prince Henry joins photobomb craze

 

Britain's His Royal Highness Prince Henry has followed his grandmother Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II into the photobomb craze, giving the thumbs up in an image of acclaimed New Zealand rugby sevens coach Gordon Tietjens at the Commonwealth Games.

 

Just days after Her Majesty The Queen was snapped beaming in the background as Australian hockey players Jayde Taylor and Brooke Peris took a selfie, the 29-year-old His Royal Highness Prince Henry popped up as Tietjens was being photographed at the swimming pool.

 

Tietjens, New Zealand deputy chef de mission Trevor Shailer and sports psychologist Gary Hermansson were photographed as they sat a few rows in front of His Royal Highness Prince Henry, his brother His Royal Highness Prince William and Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine, Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge.

 

In the photo, taken by former New Zealand hockey player Bevan Hari and posted on the Sport Manawatu Facebook page, His Royal Highness Prince Henry is seen laughing and giving a double thumbs up.

 

"Photo of the day," Shailer wrote on the Facebook page.
