ROYAL JOKER

Prince William ‘pranks Harry with ladder joke at reception’ as newlyweds leave just after midnight

HOW many princes does it take to change a light bulb?

Newlywed Harry may have sparked a new version of the joke after his brother decided to make a mockery of his DIY skills - on his wedding night.

As Harry and Meghan sped off from Windsor's Frogmore House, the groom's mischievous brother is said to have left a ladder clattering from the vehicle - in place of the time-honoured cans.

Prince William was apparently making fun of the new Duke of Sussex, who fell from a ladder recently while trying to change a light bulb.

An insider told that several guests were "floored" by the apparatus as the couple drove off on Saturday night.

Recalling the prank a day after the reception, the insider said: “Harry and Meghan went about midnight, ­shattered and madly in love.”

How the Royal Wedding has unfolded so far...


They added: “Apparently Harry fell off a ladder recently while changing a light bulb for Meghan and hurt his arm.

"So Wills tied a ladder to the back of the car, which nearly floored a few people.”

Wills, who was best man for his brother, was seen leaving Windsor Castle with his wife Kate and their three children earlier today.

The 35-year-old and the Duchess of Cambridge were later seen returning to their home at Kensington Palace, where they will now be neighbours with Harry and Meghan.

The star-studded wedding was attended by 600 guests in St George's Chapel, with the 200 select after party invitees including Serena Williams, James Corden, Idris Elba, and George and Amal Clooney.
