Prince Harry spoke about his late mother, Princess Diana, with his five-year-old son, Archie, while attending the Invictus Games in Canada. Harry shared how he educates Archie about Diana's life and humanitarian work, including her advocacy against landmines. The Duke also discussed the challenges of answering children's questions and the importance of engaging in conversations.
Prince Harry revealed that he engages in conversations with his five-year-old son, Archie, about Princess Diana, showing him historic images of her navigating minefields. During the Invictus Games in Canada, the Duke of Sussex discussed how he keeps Diana's legacy alive by educating his son about her life and humanitarian work, including her impactful role in raising awareness about the dangers of landmines in Angola.
Harry shared, 'Archie was asking about landmines so I talked about how some of these guys were blown up. I found myself talking to him about mines when he was five years old. Interestingly it gave me a chance to talk about my mum, his grandma, which I didn't even really consider. He wanted to see videos and photographs of his grandma Diana out doing her thing with land mines all those years ago.'Princess Diana tragically passed away at the age of 36 following a car accident in Paris in August 1997. The royal figure sparked global conversations and marked a pivotal moment in the campaign against deadly landmines, particularly highlighted by her walk through an Angolan minefield on January 15, 1997. Harry paid tribute to her legacy by navigating a minefield in Dirico, Angola, back in September 2019. It is estimated that around 60 million people globally still live under the constant threat of landmines every single day.The Duke of Sussex shared these thoughts while watching a wheelchair basketball game with his wife Meghan, 43, at the Vancouver Convention Centre on Sunday evening. In a conversation with CTV's Omar Sachedina, Harry expressed, 'It's hard because kids don't always ask the right questions, so you either shout it down right away, which I will never do, or you engage in the conversation and try to explain things', reports The Mirror. Earlier today, as they journeyed from Vancouver to Whistler, Harry and Meghan made a stop to meet with members of the indigenous Squamish Nation. During their visit to the Squamish Valley Totem Hall, the couple had the opportunity to play traditional instruments while local children performed dances and songs. Following their departure, Meghan took to Instagram to share her gratitude, posting: 'Thank you for welcoming us onto your sacred land'. Later today, the Sussexes are set to reach the scenic ski town of Whistler, where the Invictus skeleton event is taking place
