During his visit to Chile, Prince Harry has compared the looks of his young nephew, Prince George, to those of famous British WWII-era Prime Minister, Winston Churchill.

Prince Harry was being interviewed on air at Chilean national radio station Infinita, when he was asked about the royal baby. Presenter Virginia Araya told the UK Telegraph that when she asked what George was like, Harry replied “He’s growing up, he is walking and he has big, chubby cheeks. He looks like a young Winston Churchill.”

One of them was a corpulent, middle-aged cigar-smoking politician while the other is the youngest member of the royal family and heir to the throne, but when comparing images of the two, it’s easy to see what Harry meant.

Hopefully, George’s parents Prince William and Duchess Catherine will see the funny side of Harry’s remarks. Clearly it just goes to show that the royal bub already has the makings, and the looks, of a ruler.
