Prince Harry fans are ecstatic and are starting to realise why the Duke of Sussex was spotted in a tattoo parlour in New York back in September as a new comedy skit is published by the Invictus Games’s official account.
Harry has appeared in the comedy sketch which shows him getting a tattoo from a famous rapper as he plays the part of a nervous customer.
“Alright, screw it, let’s go,” says the prince in footage published on X by Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025.
In exchange for a tattoo, the rapper Jelly Roll strikes a deal with Harry and says he will appear at the Invictus Games celebrations for wounded service men and women, which are being held in Vancouver in February 2025.
Jelly Roll pretends to ink his name on the Prince’s neck as a worried Prince closes his eyes – but the sketch turns out to be a big advert for the games instead.
Prince Harry fans have rushed to social media platform X to share their excitement and understanding of why Harry was spotted getting “inked” in New York during his trip to promote his charity’s initiative.
One user said: “So now we know why Harry was at that Tattoo parlor in New York.”
Another wrote: “Waiiiiiit. Was this when he was spotted in September?”
A third exclaimed: “So this what he was doing at the tattoo shop!!!! I love it lol.”
Another speculated on Harry’s visit: “You kept it secret why he visited the tattoo parlour, what a fantastic reveal!”
One fan loved the advert: “This was such a smart way to promote Invictus and also announce Jelly Roll as the closing act!!! Love his music!!”
