Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, has recorded a special Christmas video message for a charity for bereaved military children dressed as Spider-Man.
Donning a full Spider-Man suit, the Prince recorded the message for the charity Scotty's Little Soldiers, wishing them a happy Christmas.
The video was played to over 100 young children who have experienced the death of a parent who had served in the British Armed Forces.

Masked in the Spider-Man suit, not revealing his face or identity, Prince Harry appeard in the hilarious but warming video to wish the children a happy Christmas.
'Hey Scotty's Little Soldiers. Welcome to the Christmas Party,' the Duke of Sussex said to them.
He then tasked them with a challenge to save Christmas by defeating the villains who had stolen Father Christmas' presents. The children completed challenges during the Heroes and Villains themed party.
'I hope you guys got some rest before tonight's excitement. I hear from Sharky and George that there are five villains that you guys need to stop from ruining Christmas. So, use your teamwork, your brains and your brawn to make sure that you do exactly that. Find them and don't let them ruin Christmas, okay.
But in a heartfelt message to the children, the prince said: 'At the same time, Christmas is a time we will miss our loved ones really, really badly. And that's okay.
'But at the same time, it can be possible to feel guilty for having fun without our parents. But I am here to assure you that our parents always want us to have fun, okay.
'So don't feel guilty - you're allowed to have the best time ever, especially with this Scotty's Little Soldiers community.
The Duke of Sussex continued: 'So, go out there and have the best time, and...'
The Prince then lifted his mask up and revealed his identity to the children, as he said: 'Merry Christmas'.

The Prince also partnered with the charity in November as he wrote to them for Remembrance Day.
In his November message to the bereaved children, the Prince said he shares a bond with them having lost a parent.
But this is also not the first time that the Duke of Sussex has dressed up for the charity to deliver a heartfelt Christmas message. In 2019, he pulled on the Santa outfit, complete with a long white beard for the charity.
Scotty's Little Soldiers have a long-standing relationship with Harry and said they are incredibly grateful for his 'continued support'.
In his 2019 message, Prince Harry touched on the loss of losing a parent and how difficult it was at Christmas time
