James Corden shares video of Prince Harry stopping by to watch the Late Late Show

James Corden has shared a video revealing a very unlikely guest who stopped by to watch the taping of the very last episode of The Late Late Show.

The comedian, 44, said goodbye to his CBS talk show and left Hollywood last month to move back to the UK with his wife Julia Carey and their three children.

Now, he’s shared a behind-the-scenes video documenting how they filmed the last-ever episode of the Late Late Show.

The video, shared on YouTube from the Late Late Show, gave an insight into their last day of filming, from a look inside the producing studio to moments that were mostly off-camera.

And in a fleeting moment none other than Prince Harry could be seen stopping by the studio to watch the final episode being filmed.

The 38-year-old Duke of Sussex had a brief conversation with the show’s executive producer, Ben Winston, while watching footage of the episode.

You could see him handing Ben, 41, a drink as he worked hard, while the other producers looked very surprised by his appearance.

You could hear Ben say, “Brilliant, thank you,” as Harry patted him on the back and watched James film the show from the recording booth.

A caption alongside the very short clip revealed that Harry had taken the visit to the set for the final day of filming as a “surprise.”

Other behind-the-scenes moments in the video saw James talking to guests Harry Styles and Will Ferrell as the producers laughed at the booth’s contents.

James was also seen tearfully thanking some of his crew members as he sat in his office surrounded by cards and gifts as they said an emotional goodbye on the chat show.

Prince Harry previously appeared on The Late Late Show alongside host James in 2021, with the segment showing the pair spending the afternoon together.

His appearance on the show came shortly after moving to Los Angeles with wife Meghan Markle after they stepped away from their senior royal duties.

And James and Harry have remained friends ever since when James stopped by to visit Harry and his wife Meghan while visiting the United States earlier this week.

Friends: James befriended Harry and Meghan after moving to the United States, last year he revealed in an interview that their children are also close

After flying back to the US after moving to the UK, the actor paid a visit to Prince Harry and Meghan’s $14 million Montecito estate.

James befriended Harry and Meghan after moving to the United States, revealing in an interview last year that their children are also close.

Speaking to The Sun, James revealed that he and his family had “kind of a play date scenario.” [with the kids],” from Meghan and Harry “and then we went out for dinner, it was delicious.”

James and Julia are parents to children Max, 11, Carey, eight, and Charlotte, four, while Prince Harry and Meghan share Archie, four, and Lilibet, 21 months.

At the time, James said he finds it difficult to be “judgmental” about Harry and Meghan, seemingly referring to their decision to step down as senior members of the royal family and move to the US.

He said: “I have tremendous respect and admiration for Harry, and anyone who has been with him and spent time with him would feel exactly the same way.

“I think he’s a devoted and loving husband and father and I think what they’ve done [in turning away from royal life] is incredibly brave and I will always be in their corner.”
