Prince Harry teaches his son Prince Archie how to surf
According to photos obtained by RadarOnline, the Duke of Sussex, 40, was seen wearing a black wetsuit alongside his five-year-old son on a jet ski. The images, later deleted at the Prince Harry's request, appeared to show the father-son duo at a surf school in California.
Harry, who has always kept his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, out of the public eye, seemed ready to catch some waves.
He was pictured holding a surfboard and wearing a wetsuit, while Archie sat at the front of the jet ski in a light blue vest, his legs hanging casually off the side. Additional photos showed Harry standing on his surfboard as he expertly rode the waves.
One of the photos was shared in an Instagram reel by professional surfer Raimana Van Bastolaer, taken at the famous Surf Ranch in Lemoore, owned by surfing legend Kelly Slater. However, the video was later edited, removing the image and accompanying text that read, "Don't hate but be happy & keep smiling. Brother HARRY, Let's go for 2025!"
Another image captured Harry posing for a picture with Raimana, indicating that the Duke of Sussex has been taking surf lessons from the professional surfer. This isnโt the first time Harry has been spotted with Raimana as they were also seen together in October of the previous year.
This comes just weeks after Harry and Meghan shared a rare photo of their two children as part of their official Christmas card.
