Prince Harry is no longer a working member of the Royal Family, but he is often seen as one of the most relatable members of the family. Having served in the military and having often been spotted in jeans and a T-shirt, Harry became a favourite among some royal fans. Publication The List has revealed some reasons why Harry gained a reputation as one of the more down-to-Earth royals.
A Swing Moment in 2014
One of Harry's best moments was when he was interacting with children at a royal engagement. It says: “Back in 2014, he toured the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park with then-London Mayor Boris Johnson and met a group of students having a blast trying out the venue's many attractions. While the politician was content to watch the kids play on the swing, the almost-30-year-old Duke of Sussex immediately joined them.”
At first, Harry only pushed the boys and girls on the swing, but then he joined in, laughing and smiling.
Popcorn Tease at the Invictus Games
And this is not the only time Harry has shown his love for spending time with children. At the Invictus Games, Harry was caught on camera sharing a wholesome moment with a two-year-old.
Prince Harry was munching on popcorn while talking to someone he was watching the games with. He was so invested in this that he didn’t notice the small child taking some of his popcorn.
But when he did, the prince immediately began teasing toddler Emily Henson by pretending to move away the bucket as well as handing her a piece of popcorn before quickly eating it himself.
Not only this, but he also mimicked her pout and stuck his tongue out at her. The moment has been shared over and over again on the internet, with royal fans finding the interaction adorable.
Family Life in California
Prince Harry now has two young children of his own, Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lillibet, four, with Meghan Markle.
Archie and Lilibet didn’t receive the titles of prince and princess at the time of their birth.
As the late Queen Elizabeth was their great-grandmother and only grandchildren are immediately given titles, they started using the titles after their grandfather King Charles became monarch in 2022.
The family reside in Montecito, California, after their departure from royal duties in 2020.
