Sneaky toddler steals Prince Harry's popcorn at Invictus Games

Prince Harry had fun playing with his friend's young daughter after catching her stealing his popcorn during the Invictus Games.

Emily Henson, aged just two, made a play for the Prince's popcorn as she sat next to the royal during the wheelchair volleyball.

She managed to sneak several handfuls of his snack before he caught her in the act.

He responded by jokingly taking his popcorn away before relenting and allowing her to share it with him.

Prince Harry, 33, was sitting with Emily's mother Hayley Henson for the volleyball match between the UK and Denmark.

He helped entertain the young girl for the rest of the game, pulling faces and admiring her toy.

The toddler is the daughter of David Henson, a former Invictus athlete and Paralympian, who won a bronze medal in the 200m at the 2016 Rio Paralympics.

Both his legs were blown off by an IED in Afghanistan in 2011.

The former royal engineer became friends with the Prince after he captained the first UK Invictus Games Team in London in 2014.

Earlier during the tournament Prince Harry made his first official public appearance with his girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle.

The Prince has previously spoken of his desire to have children of his own one day and is godfather to six of his friends' children.
