Prince Harry has arrived in Tokyo without Meghan Markle to attend a very special event, much to the delight of the royal's Japanese fans.

The Duke of Sussex touched down at Haneda Airport on Tuesday ahead of tomorrow's SPS Sports Values Summit-Special Edition, marking his second official trip to the Asian country in four years. He has been joined by his longtime friend, Argentine polo player, Nacho Figueras, for the exciting overseas trip.

It's understood that Prince Harry will be joined by the summit's founder, Dr. Haruhisa Handa, as well as Sentebale Chair Sophie Chandauka MBE, at the prestigious event. Rector and Vice-Chancellor of South Africa's Stellenbosch University Professor Wim de Villiers, and Royal Australian Navy Veteran and Invictus Games Gold Medallist Steve James will also be in attendance at the high-profile conference.

Prince Harry, who hit headlines earlier this year with the release of his debut memoir Spare, was all smiles as he walked through the terminal of the busy Japanese airport. He was also dressed in notably casual attire, donning a muted green Archewell baseball cap and a black t-shirt while carrying a nifty black backpack. Nacho, 46, looked equally informal in a crisp white shirt as he accompanied his close pal through the crowds.

According to royal correspondent Omid Scobie, "Lots of fans" were "waiting for Harry" in the Arrivals of the terminal.

It's understood that Harry, 38, will travel to Singapore to compete in a charity polo match alongside Nacho on August 12. The annual event, which started in 2010, raises funds for Sentebale, an organization set up by the duke in 2006 to support children and young people affected by poverty, inequality and HIV/AIDS in southern Africa.

The friendly game will see Harry go head-to-head against Nacho, with the duke playing for the Royal Salute Sentebale team and the renowned Argentine polo player leading the Singapore Polo Club's team. Fortunately for the US-based royal, the match shouldn't come as too much of a challenge. He previously competed in the same match back in 2017, during a two-day-long trip to the Asian nation.

Harry's visit to Japan has been made without Meghan Markle, who celebrated her 42nd birthday on August 4 with a cinema trip to see the new Barbie film followed by an evening of pampering at the plush San Ysidro Ranch hotel in Montecito with her close friends.
