Meghan Markle Got Her Hair Pulled By a 3-Year-Old in Ireland, and Prince Harry's Reaction Is the Best

Looks like (playful) discipline won’t be a problem for Prince Harry when he—fingers crossed, very soon—becomes a dad: This week, during a visit to Croke Park, home of the Gaelic Athletic Association in Dublin, Ireland, he found himself stepping in to scold a 3-year-old who made a grab for his royal wife, Meghan Markle’s, hair.

OK, OK, so scold is perhaps too strong a word. The prince jokingly wagged a finger at Walter Cullen, the adorable toddler who couldn’t resist touching Meghan’s locks.

For her part, Meghan took the whole thing in stride. She giggled and held Walter’s hand, a subtle deflection only pulled off by someone who’s a total pro with kids. (Come on, you can tell.)

Bottom line: This too-cute exchange only makes us all the more eager to see Harry and Meghan as parents. (No pressure, guys.)
