A Prince Harry doppelganger has caused a stir after being spotted in military uniform at Westminster Abbey during the Princess of Wales’s Christmas carol concert.
The mystery man, who bears an uncanny resemblance to the Duke of Sussex, appears in the trailer for Kate’s ‘Together At Christmas’ concert, which airs tonight on ITV.
The look-alike was captured on camera during filming of the annual carol service, which took place at Westminster Abbey on December 6.
Dressed in a navy ceremonial uniform of the British Army, the duke’s look-alike appears 35 seconds into the concert trailer.

The resemblance is striking – the man shares not only Prince Harry’s signature ginger hair and beard but also his build and stature.
The look-alike was spotted strolling around the entrance of Westminster Abbey, displaying a jovial demeanour reminiscent of the Duke of Sussex.
Sporting a smart military uniform and cheerful expression, the mystery man’s appearance has captured the attention of royal watchers.
The doppelganger’s presence was first noticed when the concert trailer aired last week ahead of tonight’s Christmas Eve broadcast.

The ‘Together At Christmas’ concert will air at 7:30pm tonight on ITV1 and ITVX.
The festive celebration marks the Princess of Wales’s fourth annual carol concert at Westminster Abbey.
The Wales family will feature prominently in the broadcast, with Prince William and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis all in attendance.
Kate has been described as taking a hands-on approach to every aspect of the service, including holding regular planning meetings at Windsor.

The princess arrived at 4pm on the day of filming to oversee final arrangements.
King Charles contributed to the occasion by donating Christmas trees, while Prince Louis added a personal touch with a handwritten note.
Royal viewers will see Kate wearing an elegant Alexander McQueen red coat featuring a statement black bow, paired with Ralph Lauren boots.
The appearance of the Harry look-alike draws attention to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s absence from both the carol concert and broader royal Christmas celebrations.

While the Wales family gathered together for the festive occasion, with Prince William and all three children supporting Kate’s concert, the real Prince Harry was notably missing.
The Princess of Wales has called for people to “slow down and reflect on the deeper things that connect us all” during this year’s concert.
This year’s service holds particular significance as Kate continues her recovery, with Prince William describing 2024 as “probably the hardest year of my life”.
The concert represents one of the few public appearances the Princess of Wales has made this year, following her course of preventative chemotherapy.
