England rugby star Joe Marler was left in stitches during an interview with Prince Harry on the latest episode of his podcast, Joe Marler Will See You Now, after the Duke insisted he is not ginger.
Harry's Denial Sparks Laughter
When asked what people most often get wrong about him, Prince Harry replied, 'Uh, that I'm not ginger.' Marler responded incredulously, 'Hang on, hang on, hang on, people get that wrong?' Harry doubled down, saying, 'Yeah, people think I'm ginger, but I'm more sort of like, um, sunset auburn. Yeah?'
At that point, laughter erupted in the studio. Harry playfully snapped, 'I don't know why that's funny.' Co-host Jake Bhardwaj intervened, pleading, 'Can we not laugh at the Duke, please? Yeah.'
School Bullying Over Hair Color
Harry opened up about being bullied at school for his red hair, saying, 'I got bullied a lot at school, called carrot top, right? Sorry.' Marler, covering his face and struggling to contain his mirth, replied, 'I don't know why they would, uh, I... Not funny. It's not funny, you know.'
The Duke attended Wetherby School, Ludgrove School, and later Eton College, breaking with the royal tradition of sending children to Gordonstoun in Scotland.
Harry's Fantasy Swap
Harry was also asked which famous Harry he would swap lives with for a day: Harry Styles, Harry Kane, or Harry Potter. He chose England captain Kane 'on a winning day,' explaining, 'You don't want to be Kane on a losing day, do you?' He added, 'Who wouldn't want to ride a broomstick? And Harry Styles, great, you know, runs around on stage in a pair of tight shorts. What? So it's tough - a hard choice, but Kane for me.'
Prince Harry expressed confidence that Kane and his England teammates will win the World Cup.
