Showed his practical side by fixing a family TV while
visiting their home in the hillside village
of El Vergel
He has been to war zones, flown helicopters and been
known to enjoy a late night party.
But to one family in Chile , Prince Harry will always be
known as the man who fixed their telly.
On a visit to a slum outside the former capital, Valparaiso , the Prince showed his practical side by
mending the family’s television just in time for them to watch the Brazil v Chile match in the World Cup
The Prince was in the village of El Vergel, one of the
many slums that cling to the hillsides overlooking the city, to see how the
community is being rebuilt following a forest fire in April that destroyed nine
in ten of the self-made homes.
The charity Techo is helping the villagers to build new
homes out of chipboard and corrugated iron, and inside one of the shacks, home
to Coca Perez, 50, and her teenaged son and daughter, the Prince noticed their
television was not working properly.
