PRINCE Harry took a tumble on the polo field yesterday after returning to California following the Platinum Jubilee weekend.
The Duke of Sussex was spotted competing at the Santa Barbara Polo and Racquet Club – before he and his horse came crashing to the ground.
Dressed in green and white, keen player Harry looked at home in action for his team.
But after working up a sweat in the sun, the royal ended up face-down in the turf following a fall.
It is the first time the 37-year-old has been seen since he visited the UK with wife Meghan, son Archie and daughter Lilibet to mark the Queen‘s 70-year reign.
The family enjoyed several days of Jubilee festivities before celebrating little Lili’s first birthday.
