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...
- Meghan wore Diana’s ring as Harry drove the pair to their star-studded reception after tying the knot
- Meghan changed out of her Givenchy wedding dress into a bespoke lily white high-neck silk crepe gown by Stella McCartney for the party
- Celebrities including George and Amal Clooney, the Beckhams and Oprah Winfrey partied the night away at the lavish bash
- Elton John entertained guests by singing his hit songs ‘Tiny Dancer’, ‘Your Song’ and ‘Circle of Life’ at the party
- Prince Charles ‘had reception guests in stitches’ with gags about changing Harry’s nappy before a glittering firework display
- Prince Harry and Meghan Markle earlier sealed their marriage with a kiss after a groundbreaking modern Royal Wedding

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.
