Fans and celebrities are joking that Prince Harry has found a new job as a handyman after the royal's lookalike was spotted in a new advertisement.

Rated People, an online platform for tradespeople, has garnered major attention after fans noticed how similar the model looked to the Duke of Sussex.

Mark Prisk, a former UK politician, tweeted: "Good to see the Duke of Sussex has already found work."

"He does have a family to support n'all," the company responded.

 

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced earlier this month that they planned to step back from their royal duties and become financially independent from the royal family.

Buckingham Palace later said that the couple will not use their HRH titles and will cease all royal duties as they divide their time between the UK and Canada.

"Fair play to Harry, he didn't hang about on his mission for financial independence," one fan wrote.

Tom Rosenthal, a British actor and comedian, also got in on the joke.

"Bloody hell Prince Harry found a job quickly," he wrote on Twitter.

Meanwhile, one fan joked that the advertisement could be telling of Harry's future after leaving the UK for Canada this year.

"10 years later, Canada didn't quite work out..." they wrote.
