The former England Rugby World Cup star chatted about daughter Lena, born last month, when he arrived for the Sentebale Polo Cup, the Duke of Sussex’s charity fundraising event.

Wife Zara Tindall gave birth just over five weeks ago to her second child, who is one of the Queen’s seven great-grandchildren.

Mr Tindall said about the latest addition to his family: “So far, so good, I can’t complain – it eats, sleeps.”

Speaking about his wife he added: “She wanted to come but it was (not possible). She’s doing really well – it’s been brilliant so far.

“It’s a bit hot, you buy all these clothes and they never need them, we just use nappies, but I’m not going to complain about hot weather in England.”

His comments come as the Duchess of Sussex cheered on her husband during the charity polo match – after making a surprise visit to the event.

Meghan made an unannounced appearance at the Sentebale Polo Cup, joining dozens of guests at the annual sporting fixture in aid of Harry’s charity Sentebale.

Among those watching the event, staged at the Royal County of Berkshire Polo Club, was the duke’s friend and former mentor Mark Dyer.

Harry walked into the main enclosure for guests with Sentebale ambassador and polo player Nacho Figueras. The men’s wives followed – Meghan, looking stylish in an outfit by Carolina Herrera, and Delfina Blaquier.

The final members of their group were Sentebale’s chief executive Cathy Ferrier and the organisation’s chairman Johnny Hornby.

The sporting fixture has become an important annual event raising funds and awareness for Sentebale, an organisation which works with children and teenagers in Lesotho and Botswana who are coming to terms with being HIV positive, have Aids or have lost their parents to the disease.

Later, Harry will play on the Sentebale St Regis team, captained by Mr Figueras, against the Royal Salute team, captained by Malcolm Borwick.

A 2004 gap year trip to the landlocked African nation of Lesotho inspired the duke to set up his charity two years later with the country’s Prince Seeiso, younger brother of King Letsie III.

Their aim was to help youngsters in need and other children who had lost one or both parents to Aids or contracted the disease themselves.

In November 2015, Sentebale opened its £2 million Mamohato Children’s Centre in Lesotho to scale up its Mamohato camps, a residential project providing psychological, social and practical support to children struggling to cope with being HIV positive.
