Prince Harry Accused of 'Copying' Prince William During Canada Visit
On Tuesday, the Prince of Wales, 43, appeared stylish in sunglasses while steering a boat during a tour of Guanabara Bay in Brazil. Meanwhile, Prince Harry faced accusations of imitating his older brother, Prince William, by posing for a strikingly similar photograph during his trip to Canada this week.
Within hours, Harry was seen on a boat with soldiers from two historic Army Reserve units, taking part in his own water excursion. The Duke of Sussex, 41, denied any intention to overshadow William, who was attending the Earthshot Prize awards in Brazil at the same time.
Royal Tour Timing and Public Reactions
William's visit was announced first, as Earthshot is a major part of his work and a key event in the royal calendar. Some royal experts called the concurrent tours “predictable.” However, Harry’s spokesperson dismissed claims of sibling rivalry behind his schedule announcement.
Similar Photo Sparks Comparisons
Supporters of the royals noticed the resemblance between photos of the brothers. Both were pictured holding onto boat railings, gazing thoughtfully into the distance.
“William went on a boat ride… I need to go on a boat ride,” one fan commented, noting the similarity between the two images.
Despite the accusations, both princes appear to be pursuing their engagements independently without direct competition.
