Prince Harry had quite a cheeky response to a statement made by a member of the audience when he was preparing to make a speech.

The Royal was welcomed to K'gari, also known as Paradise, at Fraser Island, and showed his quick wit by responding to a comment about his appearance.

As reported by News.au, a woman in the audience said that Harry was 'even better looking in person,' which the Prince took as a compliment.

MEETING THE LOCALS

The 34-year-old was supposed to be accompanied by his wife, Meghan Markle, but due to her pregnancy and the rough sandy roads, he showed up by himself.

Upon his arrival, Harry was greeted by members of the Butchulla, who blessed him by performing a smoking ceremony, welcoming him to K'gari.

ANOTHER ADDITION TO THE QUEEN'S CANOPY

After that, the group went on a little tour and visited the island's Big Tree, a satinay that has been standing and living on the island for the past 1000 years.

Later that day, the Prince grabbed a microphone in the forest clearing, where he told the crowd of guests and members of the media that it was a pleasure to add K'gari to the Queens Commonwealth Canopy.

Harry shook hands with members of the Butchulla, who performed a series of traditional dances, before moving on to see the crystal clear waters of Lake McKenzie, one of the island's most iconic landmarks.

SOLO OUTINGS

But this wasn't the first time Harry and Meghan went on their own adventures on the tour; the day before, the Duchess of Sussex also rode on a boat from Hervey Bay Eco Marino Tours without her other half.

Even though she was by herself, Markle appeared to be in good spirits and even waved at a couple of locals who stopped by the dock to greet her.
