Prince Harry joins Coldplay on the stage in Kensington Palace in aid of charity

Prince Harry, the fifth in line to the throne, joined Coldplay on stage during the band's finale at their Kensington Palace gig which was held in aid of his charity Sentebale. Accompanying him was a choir of young children from Lesotho - Harry wanted to thank them for their time.
He waved his hands in time to the tune and shouted to the audience: 'Thank you for standing out in the rain, thank you to the choir that has come all the way from Lesotho. Please drive home safely and carry the work of Sentebale. And thank you to Coldplay - thank you so much, you've rocked the palace, you've rocked the palace!'
This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 28 June 2016.

Harry stood behind the choir and swayed as he sung the lyrics to the hit song Up&Up. However, he did not take the microphone himself as the band's lead singer, Chris Martin, joined him. It was the first ever pop concert to be held on the historic palace's East Lawn and the purpose was to help raise funds and awareness of the challenges faced by young people affected by HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa.
Prince Harry had, earlier, introduced the British band for their 10-song set after a heartfelt speech to the crowd of 3,000 people. The money collected from the event will support Sentebale's work in helping vulnerable children in Lesotho. It works at the Mamohato Children's Centre which offers psychosocial support to children living with HIV. The charity is of the opinion that if children with the virus are educated, then they can in turn educate their peers and start to end the AIDS epidemic.
HIV is the number one cause of death in 10 to 19 year olds in Africa and every third child in Lesotho is an orphan - the country has the world's second highest rate of HIV.
