After the Duke of Sussex recently boasted in his biography, “Spare,” of having killed 25 Taliban insurgents, Prince Harry look alike Rhys Whittock claimed he began to fear for his life
EasyJet’s “Best Prince Harry Lookalike in Europe,” 39-year-old Rhys Whittock, said in an interview that experts believe Harry has endangered his family by going public with details like the number of people he killed in Afghanistan. Since he looks so much like him, it’s also a gamble for him.

The year 1983 saw the arrival of Rhys Whittock. Whittock “has been mistaken for the popular Royal Prince, Harry, for many years,” as stated on princeharrylookalike.com. In addition to sharing a similar appearance, Rhys is also nearly identical to his namesake in stature, body type, and age.
Rhys Whittock should actually be taking right wing press to task. This story was out in 2013. The right wing press chose to deliberately misreport it to whip up animosity towards Prince Harry. Sadly due to their negligence and hysteria Rhys is collateral damage. pic.twitter.com/LCK9mnqqTI

In 2018, Whittock took part in Easyjet’s #YourRoyalLikeness competition. The contest sought Europeans who looked the most like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Out of nearly 3,000 applicants from across the continent, Whittock was ultimately selected as the victor.
Since then, Rhys Whittock has collaborated with numerous commercial customers, supporting them in advertising their products by appearing in photo shoots and making personal appearances at corporate events.
Rhys Whittock fears crazy people out there
Whittock was performing splendidly up until the time that Prince Harry made that remark about the Taliban. Unfortunately, Rhys Whittock’s safety is now in jeopardy. He admitted that, based on appearances alone, some people would mistake him for the genuine Harry. Since anything could happen, he felt apprehensive. “There are some crazy people out there so it is a little scary”
“After Megxit, I couldn’t walk more than 20 meters without someone stopping me for a photo or commenting or laughing. So it’s going to be very difficult for me to walk around now after the Netflix show and the book. I didn’t really think of it until I had a text message from my mum saying that I’m now a target because of his revelations. My mum wants me to now wear glasses while I’m out so I look less like him,” Whittock added.
