The US musician who opened the Super Bowl has said the Duke Of Sussex was "just lovely" after spending time with him at the game.

Grammy-nominated country star Mickey Guyton sang the US national anthem ahead of the showpiece American football clash between the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals.

The entire event was star-studded with the halftime show going down in history as one to remember following performances from Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J Blige and Kendrick Lamar and a cameo from 50 Cent.

Sharing a picture of the herself and Harry, Guyton wrote: "I met Prince Harry. He was just lovely. I even curtsied in my track suit."

The Duke of Sussex was sporting a suit jacket and jeans with a white T-shirt and face mask.

Pictures of him and royal cousin Princess Eugenie watching the game at the SoFi Stadium, in Inglewood, California, circulated online.

As well as Guyton’s performance of The Star Spangled Banner, fans in the 70,000-capacity arena were warmed up by actor Dwayne Johnson, who channelled his former wrestling persona, The Rock.
