Prince Harry’s appearance on This Morning became one of the day’s most discussed TV moments after his warm and playful exchange with Alison Hammond.
The Duke joined Alison in Birmingham as attention builds around the upcoming Invictus Games. Instead of a formal interview, the segment opened with a lively activity that helped create a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere.
Harry and Alison appeared comfortable together throughout the feature. They shared laughs, hugs and a few light-hearted jokes, making the interview feel more like a friendly conversation than a traditional royal appearance.
One small moment in particular caught viewers’ attention. After Harry complimented Alison’s hoop earrings, she responded in her usual playful way by calling him “babes”. Harry laughed at the remark, and the exchange quickly became a major talking point online.
Some viewers praised Alison for being natural, warm and authentic. They felt her relaxed style helped Harry seem at ease and gave the interview a more human feel.
Others thought the tone was slightly too informal for a royal guest. A few viewers questioned whether the word “babes” and the enthusiastic hugs were appropriate in that setting.
Even so, Harry seemed to enjoy the friendly energy. He smiled during the segment and gently teased Alison about her excitement, before saying he loved her enthusiasm.
The interview also included a more emotional moment when Harry spoke about his family with Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. He shared that he loves his family and feels proud of them, adding a softer note to the lively appearance.
There has also been renewed curiosity about whether Meghan and the children may have travelled to the UK with him. However, no public appearance or official confirmation has been made, so that remains unclear.
Overall, the interview offered a mix of humour, warmth and emotion. Whether viewers loved Alison’s relaxed approach or felt it was too casual, the moment once again showed how Harry’s public appearances can spark conversation far beyond the interview itself.
