From the Express:
Prince Harry stepped out this evening to watch a rugby union match. The Duke of Sussex made a low-key appearance at Welford Road this evening, to watch Leicester Tigers clash with Gloucester. However, not all fans appeared happy to see the royal among other members of the public, as he was greeted with boos by some of the fans in the stands after he was shown on the big screen. Harry was papped taking his seat with a bear in his hand. His appearance comes shortly after he moved back to Britain with his family. And the paps JUST happened to be there. Gonna regret that, Harold.
TNT Sports made mention of awkward reception in their live blog. They wrote: "There were boos inside Welford Road as Prince Harry was shown on the big screen. No the boos weren’t for Ugo Monye as the TNT pundits joked."

Now, for the Hello version:
Prince Harry had a guys' night out on Friday evening. The Duke of Sussex attended the rugby match between Leicester Tigers and Gloucester Rugby at Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium in Leicester.
King Charles' younger son was dressed down, wearing blue jeans and a black puffer jacket, for the match, where he was photographed in the stands with a drink, seemingly a beer, in hand.
While his older brother, Prince William, is an avid football fan, the Duke prefers rugby. A source has told HELLO!: "For Harry it's all about rugby over football." Oh Harold, PUH-LEEZ. William and Catherine are both rugby fans, and both Prince George and Princess Charlotte play as well. Harold, you're no Mike Tindall and you never will be!!!
Harry previously served as patron of the Rugby Football Union and Rugby Football League, roles his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales*, has since taken over. The Duke relinquished the patronages, along with others, in 2021 after* he and Meghan confirmed to the late Queen Elizabeth that they would not return as working members of the royal family.
While it's unclear who the Duke was supporting on Friday, there is one team the dad of two would like to have his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, get behind.
"Harry says Archie and Lilli support Northampton and he’s looking forward to the day that he can take them to a match once his security situation is sorted. He says it's one hurdle at a time," a source told HELLO!. SE-CUR-I-TAY is his excuse for being a lousy parent and not taking his kids anywhere.
Harry's outing on Friday night came just a few days after his wife Meghan was spotted in London, marking her first public sighting in the British capital since returning to the UK in late August. The Duchess of Sussex was seen on Wednesday at Claridge's hotel with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai.
"None of this is low-key. And this is why I think this whole move is quite extraordinary," ***HELLO!'*s Royal Editor Emily Nash remarked on HELLO!'s A Right Royal podcast. "Lest we forget, back in June, when Harry came back to the UK, he said it wasn't safe for him to bring his wife and children to the capital. So they did come to the UK and they stayed outside of London. What has changed to make Meghan come back?"
"She's there in central London and it's one thing to be discreetly spotted at the table. But then she was photographed coming out in some very elegant clothing with Malala. It may not be her responsibility at all that that has happened, but what's changed? They must be confident that they are either having or about to have some better security, perhaps? Intriguingly, it seems to deviate from what we were told just a couple of months back."

Mirror version:
Prince Harry was seen in the stands watching a rugby game with a beer this evening - and received a mixed reception from the crowd. The Duke of Sussex appeared in a relaxed mood watching Leicester Tigers as they faced Gloucester at Welford Road, despite some boos ringing out from fans when he was spotted.
As Harry was shown on the big screen taking his seat with a beer in hand, there were some jeers from the crowd
I don't know who this guy is, but damn, his face says it all.
