Prince Harry blushes as crowd sings ‘Happy Birthday’ during Invictus Games volleyball match

No hangovers here!

All eyes were on Prince Harry on Friday morning as a large crowd at the Invictus Games sang “Happy Birthday” to him on his 39th birthday.

The Duke of Sussex appeared red-faced during the celebratory performance as he and his wife, Meghan Markle, smiled from ear to ear during a volleyball match between host country Germany and Poland.

After he and Markle took their seats, the announcer asked the crowd, “Is there anyone here celebrating their special occasion today?”

“Someone’s birthday? Oh, I think it’s someone’s birthday. A certain Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, turns 39 today. Happy Birthday! Let’s sing”.

The announcement left Harry shy as he thanked the crowd by giving a thumbs up and trying to cheer up an equally shy boy he was sitting next to.

The exiled royal spends his special day committed to his work supporting veteran athletes taking part in their Invictus Games in Düsseldorf, Germany.

And it seems his boozy birthday festivities last night didn’t leave the duke with a raging hangover, as the dad-of-two turned up fresh-faced on his big day.

Despite well wishes, Harry is yet to receive a birthday message from his father, King Charles, or his estranged brother, Prince William.

The royal family no longer sends public birthday wishes to non-senior royals, hence their radio silence on Markle’s 42nd birthday on August 4.

Harry celebrated his birthday on Thursday night by devouring German delicacies, literally.

The duke feasted on black pudding and Wiener Schnitzel at a secret feast at a German brewery called Schumacher in Düsseldorf, where the group drank locally brewed beer and ate traditional food.

Harry drank six beers during the celebration, which was also attended by Markle and a dozen of Harry’s assistants, according to the restaurant’s head bartender, Frank Wackers.

Wackers told DailyMail.com that the duo and their group devoured family-style plates of bratwurst, pork knuckle, sausages, roast and mashed potatoes.

The father-of-two also received a white chocolate birthday cake during the meal.

After the party, Harry and Meghan posed for photos with several excited staff before the duke left the staff a hefty tip.

A source close to Harry told the outlet that the group returned to their nearby hotel “shortly before midnight” to sing him “Happy Birthday” and enjoy cake.
