Prince Harry had scored two goals for his team Sensible St Regis in a 5-4 win over Royal Salute when captain of the victor’s Nacho Figueras inadvertently ‘photobombed’ the tender moment.

Sharing the picture on his Instagram page, he joked: “When you wished the trophy would turn into a violin. What an incredible love story.”

Mr Figueras has been friends with Harry for a number of years, and the pair regularly play in charity polo matches together.

Last year, the Argentine dad-of-four opened up about Meghan Markle and Harry’s relationship, telling HELLO! US: “I can say that I’m very happy for him.

“If he’s happy. I’m happy.

“He’s a guy that I like very much and he deserves the best.”

Mr Figueras has also previously spoken of his admiration for Harry and his brother Prince William, praising their polo-playing skills.

“They love the sport of polo so it’s always fun to be around them.

“It’s always fun to help them and an honour to help them raise money, which is what they use polo for, for charities, so it’s a wonderful thing.

“Their grandmother [the Queen] is a big fan of horses and very passionate.

“Their grandfather played, their father played, they both play. They’re great riders.”

Meghan accompanied Harry to the event in Berkshire on Thursday in support of his charity of the same name.

The couple shared several loving moments throughout the day, which included Meghan rubbing the back of her victorious husband as they left the venue, and held hands as they headed towards their car.

The polo match is an important annual event to raise funds and awareness for Sentable, which works with children and teenagers in Lesotho and Botswana who are adjusting to being HIV positive, have AIDs or have lost their parents to the disease.

Harry visited landlocked Lesotho during his gap year in 2004 and it inspired him to set up the charity two years later with the country’s Prince Seeiso.

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.

The Duke’s late mother Princess Diana also spent much of her life helping helping to raise awareness in the fight against AIDs.

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.
