While it's not customary for royals to take and share snaps during official engagements, Harry was not the first one to do it during this tour.

Meghan recently captured her husband while he was preparing for his speech at the Invictus Games, which was also shared on their official social media channels.

Kate also often takes pictures of her children herself, which are then shared on social media as official portraits of the little ones to mark special ocasions like George's first day at nursery.
