The adorable moment five-year-old schoolboy, Luke, hugs a delighted Meghan and pats arry's head in affection after the couple touch down in front of crowds in Dubb. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made a new best friend when they touched down in the drought-stricken town of Dubbo in northwestern New South Wales.
Luke Vincent, a five-year-old in kindergarten at Buninyong Public School, was overjoyed to meet Harry and Meghan when his turn came - and he just couldn't stop hugging a delighted Prince Harry or Meghan Markle.
The youngster stroked Harry's beard and ruffled the Prince's hair before handing the Meghan a bouquet of flowers, to the smiles and applause of the throngs of schoolchildren waving flags and holding welcome messages at Dubbo Airport.
The little boy was transfixed by the Duke's facial hair, according to the school's Principal Anne Van Dartel.
'He got a hug from Meghan and then Harry bent down to speak to him and Luke didn't give him any choice. Luke's favourite person in the world is Santa Claus, who has a beard. So he rubbed Harry's beard,' she said.
'It's been a wonderful experience for these little country kids to meet people they've only ever seen on TV.'
