Steve Harvey didn't hold back during a recent episode of Family Feud, and Prince Harry certainly didn't come out looking very royal. In a round where the Hernandez family and the Kie family were asked to guess the top facts about Harry, the answers were eye-opening, to say the least.
First up, Fabian Hernandez hit the buzzer with an obvious answer: "He's married to Meghan Markle." Steve Harvey confirmed it as the top response. After all, who doesn't know that one of the most prominent things Harry is known for is his controversial marriage to Meghan, which has generated more than its fair share of media attention and public debate?
A little later, Sophia Hernandez nailed the fact that Harry is a prince, which came in as the fourth most popular answer. But then, things took a rather unexpected turn. Robert Hernandez made a wild guess, perhaps hoping for a fortune. But to his surprise, Harry's supposed wealth wasn't on the board at all. No one seemed interested in discussing his financial status.
Marissa Hernandez tried another tactic, guessing that Harry’s estranged brother, Prince William, was a notable fact about him. Unfortunately for her, this was strike two. By this point, the Hernandez family was on the brink of losing, having already accumulated two strikes. Things weren’t looking too promising.
But then, Christina Hernandez pulled through with a solid answer: Harry's mother is Princess Diana, which was confirmed as the second most popular fact about him. Finally, Fabian Hernandez came up again with an answer—Harry is the late Queen Elizabeth’s grandson. Steve Harvey’s reaction was priceless: “Absolutely wrong!” This incorrect guess sealed the Hernandez family’s fate, handing the win to the Kie family.
The Kie family, clearly ready to capitalize on their opportunity, made it count. Drake Kie guessed, “He’s got some red hair,” and this response made the list as the third most popular fact. And just like that, the Kie family emerged victorious.
But there was more. Steve Harvey went on to reveal the final two facts most people associate with Prince Harry. First, it was his balding. Apparently, Harry's hair loss is another defining characteristic. Then, Harvey dropped a bombshell: “He’s a hottie.” Incredibly, only four people associated Harry with this descriptor. The audience couldn't help but laugh at how his receding hairline had become such a defining trait. At least, it wasn't as embarrassing as being remembered for something related to actual achievements, like his military service or charity work—no, Harry was simply known for being a balding redhead, married to Meghan Markle.
Let’s pause for a moment to reflect on this somewhat tragic list of facts. Invictus Center, his military service—none of these made the cut. But his hair, that got top billing. This surely must be a wake-up call for Harry. How humiliating for a prince to be remembered for such shallow details. In fact, only nine people correctly guessed he was actually a prince. That’s right—just nine people remembered his royal status. One can only imagine the kind of survey participants that were polled.
It seems the public perception of Prince Harry is reduced to just a handful of simple, superficial details: his marriage to Meghan, his hair, and his occasional role as the ginger prince. Sadly, this paints a picture of someone who's now mostly known for his connection to Meghan—his legacy wrapped in the Meghan Markle Show, with a dash of “the occasionally useful ginger prince.”
Now, Harry can truly take pride in being known primarily as Meghan’s accessory. Picture him walking through life with the lingering cloud of a reality show star, his true accomplishments fading into the background. I can't decide which is worse—being remembered mainly for your marriage to Meghan or having only four people believe you’re attractive. As for the nine who guessed he’s a prince, one would have thought there’d be a little more recognition of his real work. But no, he's now a balding ginger with mommy issues, an underwhelming military record, and a face mostly recognized as being next to Meghan's.
Ironically, after Harry took digs at his brother’s appearance, it’s now he who’s most famous for his thinning hair. Maybe it's time for Harry to step aside and let Meghan lead the way. His prize for this new legacy? A lifetime of being remembered as her personal assistant.
