Prince Harry ‘falls victim to hoaxers and reveals his thoughts about Megxit, Donald Trump and Boris Johnson in phone chat with fake Greta Thunberg’
Prince Harry has been allegedly pranked by a group of Russian YouTube stars who claimed to be Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg during two telephone conversations.
The pranksters, Alexei Stolyarov and Vladimir Kuznetsov, have previously targeted the likes of Elton John and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
During the two telephone conversations, Harry spoke about his feelings over the Megxit issue and condemned both Donald Trump and Boris Johnson.

From March 31, the monarch’s grandson and American former actress Meghan will no longer use their HRH styles as they pursue a new life of personal and financial freedom, mostly in North America.
According to the tapes, which reportedly feature Prince Harry, he comments on his decision to step down from the royal family.
He tells the Russians: ‘And this decision certainly wasn’t the easy one but it was the right decision for our family, the right decision to be able to protect my son.
‘And I think there’s a hell of a lot of people around the world that can identify and respect us for putting our family first.
‘But, yeah, it’s a tricky one, but we will start a new life.’
The audio continues with Harry confiding: ‘You forget, I was in the military for ten years so I’m more normal than my family would like to believe.
‘But certainly being in a different position now gives us the ability to say things and do things that we might not have been able to do.’
