“If you was treated like a king for the day, what would you want me to do for ya?” Harry, who portrayed Hammonds, mouthed.

“Um, bake for me probably,” Colbert, 61, who played Lutton, mimed.

“You’d want me to do what? Beg?” Hammonds responds after mishearing Lutton.

Eventually, Hammonds understood that Lutton was saying “bake,” and the two laughed off the blunder.

Several fans applauded Harry’s lip-syncing skills, with one writing, “The KING of lip syncing 🤣👑 OMG.”

“Have watched this 100+ times already,” another gushed, as a third chimed in, “Harry is sooooooo funny and seems like such a nice guy.”

A fourth agreed that the Duke of Sussex and Colbert’s video was “scary good.”

However, a few critics were quick to point out that Harry’s video was in poor taste as his father-in-law is hospitalized.

“Hey (sic) Harry, your Father-in-law is in intensive care in the hospital. How’s your ‘compassion in action’???” one asked.

Another stated via X, “I find this silly, embarrassing skit whilst Thomas Markle is fighting for his life in intensive care deeply disrespectful.

“Hollow Harry and his ‘royal prince of Christmas’ just sank to a new low.”

Fans jumped to Harry’s defense, with one writing, “Judging people and things you don’t personally know anything about. Not very compassionate of you.”

“I very much applaud this young man’s principles and determination to live his life on his own terms,” a second added.

Others pointed out that Harry and Meghan, 44, likely weren’t in contact with Thomas after he had publicly spoken out against her.

Thomas, meanwhile, was transported to the hospital and underwent surgery after getting sick while at his home in the Philippines on Tuesday.

His son, Thomas Markle Jr., confirmed that the patriarch would need to undergo a second procedure to remove a blood clot.

The 81-year-old has been hospitalized in the past and notably missed Meghan and Harry’s 2018 wedding after a heart surgery.




Let’s be honest—no matter how stressful the day gets, a good viral video can instantly lift your mood. Whether it’s a funny pet doing something silly, a heartwarming moment between strangers, or a wild dance challenge, viral videos are what keep the internet fun and alive.
