Prince Harry has drawn poignant comparisons between his late mother, Princess Diana, and his wife, Meghan Markle, during a visit to Angola. The Duke of Sussex revisited the same minefield his mother famously walked through in 1997, highlighting the enduring impact of her humanitarian efforts.
Speaking to journalists, Harry reflected on Diana's legacy, noting how her work to ban landmines continues to save lives decades later. "Seeing the transformation here is incredible," he said. "My mother would be proud of the progress, but there's still so much to do."
Meghan's Advocacy Echoes Diana's Mission
Harry also drew parallels between Diana's activism and Meghan's modern-day advocacy. "Meghan has the same compassion and drive to make a difference," he shared. "She understands the power of using her voice for those who don't have one."
The visit comes as Harry and Meghan continue their philanthropic work through the Archewell Foundation, focusing on issues like gender equality and mental health—causes that resonate with Diana's own humanitarian focus.
Angola's Progress Since Diana's Visit
During his trip, Harry witnessed firsthand how Angola has changed since his mother's historic walk through a cleared minefield. The area, once a symbol of conflict, is now a thriving community with schools and hospitals—a testament to the lasting impact of Diana's advocacy.
"This is what change looks like," Harry remarked. "It's slow, but it's real. And it's why we must keep pushing forward."
