We reckon Princess Diana would have been so proud.
Prince Harry has proven time and time again that he is an absolute gentleman, but he’s surpassed himself with this touching moment that happened earlier this week.
An Austrailian news outlet has reported that a heartbreaking exchange took place between Prince Harry and a young royal fan during Harry and Meghan’s walkabout in Aukland.
After meeting a six-year-old boy who had lost his mother, news.com.au reported that Harry comforted him by promising, “Everything will be OK.”

The Duke of Sussex told the child that things do get better and at thirty-four-years-old, he is very happy:
“I have met this amazing woman and I have now married her.”
Harry was just twelve when Diana died in a shocking car crash.
Harry added to Otia’s grandmother, Te Nante who is fifty-two:
“You’re doing a great job, Nan,” he said. “Nans are so important in our lives.”
It has been 21 years since Diana’s passing and both Harry and William have often spoken of how difficult her death was. Harry said he previously bottled up his grief and not talking about the impact of his mother’s passing deeply affected both his personal and work life.
The empathy Harry displayed in this moment makes us think he will make as good a dad as he is a son.
