One of the greatest moments so far has been Prince Harry's moment that he shared with little Luke Vincent.

The picture of Luke stroking Harry's beard has been shared thousands of times around the world already.

One of the photographers that was on site that day has spoken about the adorable moment to Town & Country.

"The couple arrived on a plane from Sydney and were greeted by dozens of excited school children. They both were very engaged with all the kids, almost individually greeting each one of them," 

"At the end of the long queue was young Luke Vincent. He embraced Prince Harry with the warmest affectionate hug, and then did the same with Meghan. It was a special moment, the newly announced parents-to-be appeared emotional, and it was a real, candid, unexpected encounter that sums up why the royals are so popular with people."
