Prince Charles laughs off Harry’s parenting moans on second day in Northern Ireland
PRINCE Charles has laughed off Harry's moans about his parenting during the second day of a royal visit to Northern Ireland.
The Prince of Wales was all smiles as he visited an open air market in Bangor with wife Camilla this morning.

He beamed at a baby in a pram and chatted with members of the public during his visit, which began just days after Harry blasted the 72-year-old's parenting and said he moved to California to "break the cycle of pain" for his wife Meghan.
And while the comments may well have upset Charles, there has been no sign of it during his official visit.
Yesterday, he looked relaxed as he donned a hard hat and hi-vis yellow vest to meet workers at the Belfast's iconic Harland & Wolff shipyard.
He and Camilla then wore face masks as they toured Belfast City Hall.
In a touching speech during the visit, Charles said: "Whenever I visit I never cease to be profoundly moved by the work that is being done to heal the pain of the past, to bring understanding and reconciliation in the present and to build hope for the future.
"All who love this very special part of the world can only wish you renewed strength of spirit and resolve as you take forward this work of such vital importance to these islands."
Charles and Camilla's trip comes amid a deluge of publicity for Harry's upcoming mental health series with Oprah Winfrey.
Last week, the Duke of Sussex claimed his dad “suffered” due to his upbringing by the Queen and Prince Philip, then “treated me the way he was treated”.
The comments sparked a wave of criticism from royal experts.
Commentator Robert Jobson told Australian breakfast show Sunrise: "He believes this himself, and mental health is a big, big issue out there, but come on - really to keep harping on like this is getting embarrassing.
"To criticise his father for his parenting skills, but also the Queen and Prince Philip, who only just had his funeral - he's only just lost his grandfather. I think it smacks of pretty shameless behaviour."
During the same interview, the Duke swore as he asked podcast host Dax Shepard about what it was like to take a “s***load” of drugs and "getting s*** done".
And he sparked fury after branding America's First Amendment "bonkers" - despite admitting he "doesn't understand" the constitution's freedom of speech clause.
The remark prompted TV presenter Sean Hannity to brand Harry the "prince of woke."
The host, who called Harry a "royal pain", also criticised the royal for not naming the member of the who allegedly made racist remarks about his son Archie.
He said: “Harry, it's time for you to get a grip.
"Stop the lecturing of all of the rest of us on issues you clearly know nothing about because you're nothing, frankly, but the Prince of Woke Social Justice Warriors.”
The prince then appeared in a clip from his upcoming series on mental health, The Me You Can't See.
An official trailer released yesterday shows poignant archive footage shows Harry stood next to Prince Charles at Princess Diana's funeral.
A voiceover says: "Treating people with dignity is the first act."
The trailer also shows the duke speaking with Oprah.
He says: "To make that decision to receive help is not a sign of weakness.
"In today's world more than ever, it is a sign of strength."
The latest round of interviews from Harry comes over two months after he and Meghan's bombshell chat with Oprah aired.

During the interview, he said William and Charles were "trapped" in the Royal Family - and alleged he'd had to seek out deals with Netflix and Spotify to protect his wife and son after his father effectively cut him off.
Charles has not spoken publicly about the interview.
