Prince Harry accuses John Travolta of ‘dining out’ on 1985 White House dance with Princess Diana

Prince Harry has posed for a humiliating selfie with a German dubbed the “King of Trash TV”.

Prince Harry made no reference to his father King Charles or his sister-in-law Princess Catherine’s health shock in his aviation hall of fame speech.

It was the first time the expat royal has been seen in public since the Princess of Wales underwent abdominal surgery and King Charles was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate.

But the Duke of Sussex made no mention of his family’s double-whammy recent hospital visits.

At the ceremony, Prince Harry was seen beaming in a selfie alongside Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe at the Beverly Hills Hilton.

The Duke of Sussex accepted the Living Legend of Aviation award at a ceremony hosted by John Travolta in Beverly Hills, California, on Friday.

His wife, Meghan Markle, did not attend the event as one of their children had fallen ill, according to reports.

The Duke of Sussex was presented with the prestigious Kiddie Hawk Academy award by Travolta, who the royal referred to as “Captain John”.

The A-list actor famously danced with Princess Diana at a White House dinner for then US president Ronald Reagan in 1985.

Addressing the audience at the Beverly Hills Hilton, Prince Harry said: “This is nice. Thanks very much, Captain John.

“I was one-year-old when you danced with my mum. As you’ve told everybody here and continue to dine out on that probably every single night.

“But look at us now! It’s great. So if we’re not going to dance together, we’ll fly together.”

The Telegraph reported that as the audience laughed, Prince Harry appeared to hold his hand up to jokingly dismiss Travolta, adding: “Thank you, that’s it, we’re done.”

The Duke of Sussex went on to thank the “living legends of aviation for this incredible honour” adding that he is “proud to be recognised among such a dynamic and inspiring group of individuals”.

Past winners include astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Amazon chief Jeff Bezos and Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise.

“For me, flying has been a transcendent experience,” Prince Harry said.

“A close encounter with magic, an invitation to both protect freedom… and to feel free; and, funny enough, an opportunity to ground oneself, without actually being grounded.

“I find my flight training — which was over the course of three years— to be one of life’s greatest lessons. In this lesson, it triggered a vast array of feelings.”

Prince Harry completed two tours of Afghanistan as a forward air controller and an Apache helicopter pilot.

Aviation experts have questioned the move to induct the royal into the industry’s hall of fame.

Retired British Army officer Colonel Richard Kemp told The Sun: “I can understand why it’s happening.

“It’s all obviously about publicity. He’s a celebrity and a very well-known person.

“Of course it gives publicity to this award and the people that are promoting it.

“But there are many people in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, possibly even fighting now in against the terrorism in Yemen.

“A large number of military pilots, helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft have carried out some extraordinary feats of valour and phenomenal aviation that I’m afraid Harry didn’t do.”
