Prince Harry has shared small details about his children over the years, including how Archie, 5, asked to see photos of “Grandma Diana.” Still, his recent statement about fatherhood might be his most powerful to date.
This week, Prince Harry made a surprise appearance at the Upfront Summit in Los Angeles. The Duke of Sussex, 40, gave a heartfelt speech where he not only discussed his plans for the future, but he also addressed his experience being a dad to Archie and Lilibet, 3.
“I’m here to talk about something that I believe will resonate with all of you as leaders, creators, builders and changemakers,” Prince Harry said. “How do we invest in our shared future to solve the challenges we face today as a divided society?”
The Duke of Sussex went on to reference his two children, adding, “As a dad, this has me constantly looking for solutions. As a man who was born into a life of service, I recognize that with power and a platform comes responsibility. And these days, I am determined to find and invest in solutions.”
Prince Harry continued, “It’s the same approach I’ve taken in founding charities like The Invictus Games Foundation back in 2014, that supports and rehabilitates wounded and injured service personnel and veterans through sport, and more recently with The Archewell Foundation, where we show up and do good for those who need it most, supporting social impact initiatives—including digital safety and education—all under the umbrella of protecting our collective mental health.”
Fatherhood looks good on Prince Harry.
