- Prince Harry attended a rugby match during his solo visit to Japan.
- Harry's team, England, lost to South Africa on Saturday.
- The duke apparently sent the England team a photo of baby Archie Mountbatten-Windsor before the game.
Prince Harry has had an extremely busy weekend in Japan.
From having been told he was handsome by a group of students to meeting with Paralympic hopefuls, the prince hasn't wasted a minute of his solo trip. He also carved out time to watch England play rugby against South Africa at the International Stadium in Yokohama, Japan, on Saturday.
In a sweet video shared on Twitter, one of England's rugby players, Sam Underhill, revealed that the duke had been supporting the team via text. And, most importantly, he'd apparently shared a photo of baby Archie Mountbatten-Windsor wearing an England rugby shirt with the players, which is beyond adorable.
Underhill revealed in the interview, "As a group we've had a couple of messages." He continued, "Prince Harry sent us a nice message of support, which was nice to receive. Showed his little lad in an England shirt, so that was a nice touch."
Harry watched the game with Japan's Fumihito, Crown Prince Akishino, and his wife, Kiko, Crown Princess Akishino; Harry was also spotted chatting to Albert II, Prince of Monaco, at the sporting event. In a sweet Instagram message posted after England lost, Harry wrote, "Hold your heads high boys, you did an outstanding job and we couldn't have asked more from you."
