THE Duke of Edinburgh cracked a joke with new dad Prince Harry after today’s royal wedding as the 97-year-old made a rare public appearance.
Philip appeared in good spirits at the wedding of Lady Gabriella Windsor and Thomas Kingston in what was only his second public appearance since his car crash in January.
The Duke of Edinburgh, who has retired from public life, was last photographed at the public reveal of Harry and Meghan’s first child Archie last week.
That was the first time he’d been seen since the January car crash on the A419 at Babingley, Norfolk.
Philip had to be pulled from the wrecked car, which had flipped over on to the driver’s door and the windscreen was smashed.
The 97-year-old was seen joking with the Duke of Sussex, who made a surprise appearance at the wedding, almost a year to the day since he tied the knot at the same venue.
It was the third royal wedding in the 15th century venue in less than a year following the star-studded nuptials of Harry and Meghan last year and then Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank in October.
Harry arrived at the ceremony with Peep Show actress Sophie Winkleman, who is married to Lord Frederick Windsor, along with his uncle Prince Edward and aunt Princess Anne.
