Prince Harry has literally swept a young lady off her feet. 

Everyone's favorite red-headed royal recently came to the rescue of a 5-year-old girl he discovered crying during the closing ceremony at the Invictus Games for wounded veterans. Little Isabelle Nixon couldn’t see the stage where the Foo Fighters were playing, so the 30-year-old prince scooped her up and put her on his shoulders.

Isabelle was attending the concert with her father, Adam Nixon, who lost a leg in an IED blast in Basra. Her dad had captained Team Great Britain's wheelchair basketball team during the Games.

The little girl didn’t realize who her dancing partner was until her mother, Taryn Nixon, informed her: "You're dancing with Prince Harry."

Her mom later shared the moment on Twitter, where she thanked the prince for providing "an amazing end to an amazing week."
