LONDON, Oct 10 — Britain’s Prince Harry was booed by a section of the crowd as he watched Leicester play Gloucester in an English Prem rugby match yesterday.

Harry, who had a beer in his hand, has long been a keen rugby fan and was in attendance with Andrea Pinchen, the Leicester chief executive.

The prince was pictured on the big screen at Leicester’s Welford Road ground but there were audible boos from spectators before TNT cameras cut away.

“Some boos there”, said TNT commentator Nick Mullins before returning to the match action.
