Prince Harry quickly singled out an audience member during a live Fox appearance, calling them out just minutes into the interview after reacting to their laughter.
The Duke of Sussex was appearing alongside host James Corden, who was fronting a post–World Cup final after-show on Fox following Spain’s 1-0 win over Argentina. The conversation initially focused on the match and England’s near run to the final, with the team ultimately securing third place.
During the chat, Corden asked Harry whether he played soccer while at school, joking that his education may have been “too posh” for the sport. Harry pushed back on the assumption, saying, “It was such a posh school that everything was an option. There was a football team.” His visit came days after he went to the UK for a rare visit.

Corden then followed up by asking, “Were you any good?”
Harry responded candidly about his experience, saying, “You know what, in prep school, I was on the first team. And then I went to the bigger school, and I ended up on the E team. Big A team, down to E team. So that didn’t feel very good.”
As he finished his answer, a member of the audience let out a loud laugh, which immediately caught Harry’s attention. The prince reacted by pointing toward the individual and addressing them directly, saying, “You found that really funny, didn’t you?” Corden quickly moved the interview along, asking Harry what sport he ultimately focused on during his school years. Harry replied that rugby became his main sport.
Harry also shocked fans by dropping a curse word during the visit. When speaking about England turning up the heat during their match against Argentina, Harry said, "I think they were like... 'Oh sh---, we're winding it up.'"
The appearance comes shortly after Harry made a trip back to the United Kingdom for a high-profile visit tied to the Invictus Games. The Duke, 41, traveled from the United States to mark one year until the event is set to take place in Birmingham, England.
Ahead of the visit, Harry’s spokesperson said he had accepted an invitation from his father to stay at Buckingham Palace during his time in London. However, plans appeared to change quickly.
It was later reported that the invitation had been “withdrawn,” with royal sources indicating that Harry had not formally responded to the offer by the required deadline. According to the BBC, the deadline passed at the end of last week, and Harry was informed over the weekend that accommodations at the palace would no longer be available.
The palace is said to require advance notice in order to arrange staffing and logistics for guests staying at the residence. Harry’s spokesperson confirmed they understood the accommodation offer had been withdrawn, describing the situation as disappointing.
It had been expected that Harry would travel alone, as his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were not initially set to join him following the ongoing issue around taxpayer-funded police protection in the UK.
However, Meghan did ultimately make the trip to London, though she did not attend any public-facing events, including those connected to the Invictus Games.
