“I met Harry once, at polo, which sounds a bit grand, but it wasn’t that grand,” Smith said. “And he walked up to me and went, ‘Granddad.’”
The “House of the Dragon” star continued, “He watched the show! Well, I can’t claim to know if he watches it currently, but he watched a bit of it then.”

Smith played Prince Philip for two seasons before Tobias Menzies stepped in to portray an older version of the late royal. The final two seasons will see Jonathan Pryce taking on the role.
