Kian Egan was shocked to find Prince Harry knew who he was.

The 34-year-old star - who is best known from his days in Westlife - met the 29-year-old royal at Sentebale Summer Party earlier this month and "couldn't believe" the flame-haired prince recognised him after he won last year's 'I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!'.

Talking to the Mail Online, he explained: "It was a beautiful event and it felt very select. 'I went with my wife, Jodi [Albert] and we were lucky enough to be introduced to Prince Harry.

He said to me, 'Ah, I've seen you in the jungle' and I just couldn't believe that he watched it and knew who I was."

The bash was held at the Dorchester Hotel in London and marked Harry's charity's achievements working with Aids orphans and disadvantaged children in Lesotho.

Later that evening Kian's wife Jodi - who he married in 2009 and has two-year-old son Koa with - insisted the singer was jealous of Harry.

She wrote on Twitter: "Thank you for a wonderful evening spent with Prince Harry..think @KianEganWL got jealous! (sic)"

Kian added: "Jodi joked on Twitter that I was jealous of him but she was just messing around."
