The 32-year-old royal, his 34-year-old brother Prince William and wife Duchess Catherine threw a party at Buckingham Palace on Saturday (13.05.17) to honour those who have lost loved ones in the Armed Forces, and Harry made an impact on the guests, especially six-year-old Jack, after he put his plate spinning skills to the test.

Speaking about the flame-haired star to the Mirror Online, the young boy's mother Rebecca - who is the partner of the late Lee Rigby - said: "We met Harry briefly while we were spinning the plates. He's a really nice guy."

And Jack's parent believes the event was ideal to help other children trying to cope with the loss of a relative by encouraging them to interact with other people who have endured the same hardships.

Rebecca continued: "It's great for the kids to meet other kids and to know there are others in the same boat."

And Harry - who is currently dating actress Meghan Markle - admitted the Royal site had never seen as much "fun, ever" as it did over the weekend.

Speaking at the event, he said: "I can assure you that Buckingham Palace gardens have not seen this much fun, ever.

"We're here to celebrate you and to remind you that we as a family, we as a nation, and we up and down the country will never ever forget about the sacrifices that every single one of you have made.

"You are all together, you are one community of people that have been through the same experiences and for that every single one of us here, all the organisers, the three of us the whole of our family and the whole of this nation, thank you so, so much for everything you guys have done."
