Schoolboy hopes Prince Harry 'didn't mind' him 'cuddling' Meghan - Sky News

A cheeky schoolboy who gave Meghan Markle a kiss on the cheek has written to Prince Harry to say he hopes "he didn't mind".

Aker Okoye, 16, was filmed hugging the Duchess of Sussex on stage and telling fellow pupils "she really is beautiful, innit?" during the royal's visit to Robert Clack school on Friday.

In a letter to her husband, Aker said "I hope you didn't mind me cuddling your wife," adding that he was "just so overwhelmed and shocked".

He also wished the couple "good luck for the future" and said he wished to meet Harry some day.

Aker later told the newspaper: "I've written the letter to make sure Harry doesn't have a problem with it and to say sorry really and that I hope he didn't mind.

"Meghan didn't - she found it funny and I'm sure Harry will as well.
