Harry suffers double humiliation as musician fails to recognise him before their wife confuses duke with William

However, it did not all go to plan for Prince Harry as the royal suffered a couple of embarrassing moments.

Firstly, musician Richard Marx appeared not to recognise the Duke of Sussex as he waited for him by the side of the stage.

Marx went to walk past Harry but was then pointed in Harry’s direction following his performance at the concert.

During a brief exchange, Prince Harry was heard saying to Marx: “Hey! Well done.”

In another awkward moment, Marx’s wife, Daisy Fuentes, mistakenly tagged Prince William’s Instagram account after uploading a photo of Prince Harry at the event.

Fuentes corrected the error, tagging a fan-run Prince Harry account instead.

The Duke of Sussex kicked off his string of engagements yesterday with an appearance at a high-profile dinner organised by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
