Prince Harry humorously compared his royal upbringing to the hit series Downton Abbey during a British American Business Council event in Los Angeles, quipping that real royal life contained more drama and intrigue than the TV show. The Duke of Sussex, who relocated to California with Meghan Markle after stepping back from royal duties, also joked about adapting to American life and made a surprise appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
