For one young onlooker it was all too much as the noise erupted but Prince Harry was straight on hand waving a little flag and talking to the little boy and his mother to calm him down.

They also delighted owners of dogs with Meghan bending down to stroke a guide dog, while calling Harry over to talk to the owner for a few seconds before moving on.

Meghan wore a green leather skirt from Hugo Boss, & Other Stories shirt with a Giorgio Armani camel coat.

What was clear from watching the royal couple interact with each other and the crowds is how natural they are and how much they seem to enjoy meeting the people that had waited outside for them.

And it isn't over yet as the couple make their way to Bognor Regis, Brighton and Peacehaven.
