Prince Harry has been an honouree Aussie for the past month thanks to his stint in the army.
But on Thursday it was time for the 30-year-old to say goodbye and he did so in the most spectacular fashion – pulling up to the Opera House in a speed boat! Woman’s Day were lucky enough to be in the crowd as he did the rounds.
We watched on as Captain Wales wooed the crowds and it’s fair to say this is definitely the Peoples’ Prince!
He spent over an hour greeting fans, talking to school kids, hugging grannies and he even managed to get a big kiss from one very lucky lady who is no doubt on cloud nine!

This eager fan in an Aussie print dress was determined to have a moment with Harry, even getting Mike Baird’s help to try and catch the Prince’s attention!
Yes, this young lady is going where most have not been. Victoria McRae, 21, asked Harry to marry her and ended up locking lips him!
Victoria: “He let me kiss him on the cheek but then I went in for it. The rest was history. It was amazing, it’s meant to be, there’s a lot of chemistry there I’d say. I said I’d proposed twice before, that it was my third time lucky, and my sign said last chance so I said have a think about it.”
She went in for the kiss! When Harry was asked about it, he cheekily said “I got more than one kiss!”
Later in the day, Harry headed to the Macquaire Hospital in Ryde where he met with double amputee Lt Ali Spearing, a Royal Engineers Officer who was seriously wounded and lost both legs during his deployment in Afghanistan in 2011.
The prince was happy to be reunited with his old friend
The two joked together.
And shared a laugh.
Harry visited other amputees.
And was moved by their toughing story.
Prince Harry’s arrival was fit for a king!
Captain Wales was met with a roar as he stepped onto Sydney Harbour.
The charismatic prince gave the people what they wanted. That cheeky grin!
The young uncle chatted to primary school students.
Like us, they were enthralled!
He was greeted by NSW Mike Baird.
Fans were loving him!
He chatted to this lucky nana!
And she sure made him smile!
We think he’ll be a great uncle to Princess Charlotte. He was so caring towards this little girl.
But there was one girl who had her sights on the red-haired Prince.
Thanks for the memories Harry, it’s been wild!
