Prince Harry has been spotted on a Ring camera appearing lost while reportedly looking for a friend in London, The Sun reports. The Prince was seen by locals in the borough of Hammersmith & Fulham, where it appears he knocked on a stranger’s door before finding the right one.
In the pictures, captured by the now-ubiquitous security device, Harry can be seen in a blue suit, white shirt, and a white sweater, looking somewhat confused as he attempts to find whoever it is he was looking for.
The image shows the Prince holding a cellphone to his right ear. The snap bears the telltale hallmark of a Ring camera photo, with its now-iconic fish-eye lens and candid photography style.

Behind the Duke of Sussex a stretch of tree-lined, three-story Victorian terrace houses, typical of Fulham’s late-19th-century streets, can be seen. Just beside him stand black and green trash bins, a color scheme Hammersmith & Fulham Council rolled out for household recycling and refuse collection in 2024. The image is likely taken just north of Fulham Road, close to Parsons Green. The area is a known haunt of affluent, and often aristocratic, Londoners.
Ring camera photos have been increasingly popping up in the news, capturing unassuming moments thanks to their constant surveillance of the exteriors of people’s homes. Last year, a Florida man’s accidental confession to the murder of his son was captured by a Ring device, while in 2023 a man was arrested in Oregon after violent threats made to his neighbor were caught on camera.
Harry was back in London to argue in an appeals court that his right to 24-hour armed police while in the U.K. should be reinstated. Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, stayed at home in California with their two children while Harry headed to his native England. The appeal, which Harry made on the basis that his family was not safe in the country without armed protection, was rejected.
Harry’s visit comes on the heels of a controversial interview with the BBC, in which the prince declared his wish to reconcile with his family, claiming that, “I don’t know how much longer my father has. He won’t speak to me because of this security stuff.” The comment seems to have only further alienated Harry from his family, with a source telling the Daily Beast that Prince William plans to strip Harry and Meghan of their “His/Her Royal Highness” (HRH) titles when he becomes king.
Editor’s Note: A previous version of this story misstated that Prince Harry had knocked on at least three doors. It has been updated to indicate that he knocked on just one other door.
