In a momentous event on January 19, Prince Harry was bestowed with the prestigious title of living legend at the 21st Annual Aviation Awards.
However, following the viral spread of their selfie from the Aviation Awards, Prince Harry finds himself in a cautionary tale. He has received a stern warning to 'keep his distance' from the German Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe.
For those unfamiliar, Prince Mario-Max has asserted a distant connection to the British royal family. Yet, the head of his family, Prince Alexander of Schaumburg-Lippe, vehemently criticized him for exploiting their family name.

Expressing his distress to the Mail, Prince Alexander stated, "It's deeply painful for me; this individual has been leveraging our name for personal gain."
Adding further, Alexander emphasized, "Prince Harry should not associate himself with someone of such low standing. My advice to him is to steer clear of this man."
On January 20, Prince Mario-Max took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share a selfie with the Duke of Sussex from the illustrious award ceremony.
In his post, he declared, "Congratulations to HRH Prince Harry for his thoroughly deserved Living Legends of Aviation Award."
Notably, the Living Legends of Aviation Hall of Fame welcomed Prince Harry in recognition of his outstanding achievements as a pilot during his decade-long military service.
