Prince Harry Joined 'Hamilton' Cast To Raise Money for HIV Charity

Prince Harry joined the cast of Hamliton breaking into song in the finale of a charity performance of the show, to a song sung by the George III character — Harry’s sixth-great-grandfather. 

Wednesday night's performance in London's West End was a benefit for his HIV charity Sentebale. Funds raised will go to support the mental health and well-being of children and young people affected by HIV in Lesotho & Botswana. 

Harry watched the production with his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and the Hamilton’s creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Ahead of the show, Miranda had commented it would be “fun and surreal” to see the royal couple watch the performance of King George III.

Hamilton  tells the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton and his rise from poverty to power against the backdrop of the American Revolutionary War.

Miranda took to Twitter to note: “King George III’s great-great-great-great-great-great grandson The Duke Of Sussex sang a few bars tonight.”

Harry married American actress Megahn Markle in May.
