Prince Philip’s youth picture resembles Prince Harry to a shocking degree
The Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip’s demise on April 9, has led royal fans to post his pictures from bygone days. On April 11, royal photographer Chris Jackson shared a picture of Prince Philip in his 30s while wearing the Tropical Dress of the Blues and Royal, which is a cavalry regiment of the British Army, and it’s gone viral because of the marked similarity to Prince Harry of today. The same bushy red beard, blue eyes, and beaming smile will leave you wondering.
Another shocking detail is Harry wore that same uniform in 2012 while he was in the Bahamas as part of a Diamond Jubilee tour.
Jackson found the black-and-white photo in an old copy of a French magazine featuring a picture of Prince Philip at the age of 36. After colorizing it, Jackson posted the snapshot to his Instagram. “I was reminded today of this incredible vintage @parismatch_magazine from 1957 I acquired a few years ago. I was blown away the minute I spotted it. It always reminds me of the unique, historic reference points that Royal photography provides. The front cover features a fantastically suave Prince Philip on tour with The Queen,” Jackson wrote.

What makes the photo even more amazing is Harry wore that same uniform in 2012 while he was in the Bahamas as part of a Diamond Jubilee tour.
Harry will reportedly attend Prince Philip’s funeral on Saturday, April 17, at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.
