Prince Harry played an important role at Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding. As his brother's best man, he gave a hilarious and touching speech during the royal couple's wedding reception, and the moment reportedly touched the Prince of Wales and left the Princess of Wales in tears.
Prince Harry Hilariously Revealed He Heard Prince William Coo At Kate Middleton
In the book Harry: Life, Love, and Loss, royal author Katie Nicholl described the moment between Prince Harry, Prince William, and Kate Middleton as affectionate, warm, and funny. And it also reportedly touched Prince William deeply.
During the Duke of Sussex's best man speech, he told the guests when he realized that Prince William was serious about his sister-in-law. He also revealed Prince William's nickname for his wife.
"The speech was peppered with Harry's classic sense of humor, and he ribbed his brother: 'William didn't have a romantic bone in his body before he met Kate, so I knew it was serious when William suddenly started cooing down the phone at Kate.' Famous for his mimicry, Harry then impersonated his brother calling Kate' Babykins', to much laughter from the guests. When he said the couple's decade-long romance was his inspiration, there was a shy smile from Chelsy, while Kate shed a tear," Nicholl wrote (via Mirror UK).

"You got there before Harry!" Prince William fired back.
