Prince Harry to visit SA
Meanwhile the teenager was equally happy to see Prince Harry again.
The 31-year-old prince first met Mutsu Potsane, while visiting his orphanage during his gap year in 2004.
Mutsu frequently writes to Harry and yesterday Sentebale released his latest letter, written to Prince Harry shortly before his visit to Lesotho in December 2014.
Last time when the pair met, Mutsu grabbed his hand and stayed by his aspect for hours and Harry even gave him a pair of blue wellington boots.
The palace added, “Prince Seeiso and HRH take part in a photography workshop at the @sentebale Mamohato Children’s Centre”.
Wrapped in his cloak, Harry, who had been sheltering from the blistering sun under a canopy, joked: “I was starting to feel a bit chilly”.
The Mamohato Children’s Centre cost just over £2 million to build and its welcome block – with a distinctive frontage designed by Harry – has been named after Olga Powell, the Prince’s nanny, who died in 2012.
He said: “I felt an overwhelming connection to numerous children I met. They were far younger and, of course, their situation was a great deal more challenging”.
England polo player Malcolm Borwick regularly plays with Prince Harry and Prince William in charity matches. “He said to me I’ve grown up”, Mutsu said.
“Prince Harry told me he was just blown away when he first saw it”.
“During the dedication of the children’s center, Harry said that he and the boy share a special relationship that comes from tragic losses”.

He snatched the 15-year-old’s hat off his head – protection against the blazing sun – then looked at the label before putting it on the head of Prince Seeiso.
It’s been a rough day for Prince Harry, who fell off his polo pony during the Sentebale polo match in South Africa.
Lesotho has the second highest infection rate of HIV in the world and tragically the number of deaths from the disease means there are no longer enough adults to care for the children.
On the first day of his royal tour of Africa, Prince Harry has given a powerful and touching speech about his own experiences of loss and grief.
The tour will focus on themes including understanding South Africa’s recent history, the issues and opportunities for young people, and the importance of wildlife conservation.
