Growing up in the limelight of the British monarchy, Harry had a turbulent childhood, marked by the separation of his parents and the premature loss of his mother in 1997. After graduating from Eton College, he served in the British army for several years, including two tours of duty in Afghanistan.

Prince Harry's life between England and the USA
In 2018, he married US actress Meghan Markle, and together they started a family with two children. In 2020, they decided to lead an independent life in the USA, away from royal duties. However, his commitment to charitable causes, particularly in the area of mental health and supporting sick children, will always remain a central part of his life.
It is therefore not surprising that he has now appeared at a corresponding event, where a funny incident occurred. According to The Independent, Prince Harry laughed wholeheartedly when a little boy grabbed his beard at the WellChild charity event. What happened?
Child makes the bearded prince laugh
On September 30, the Duke of Sussex met with children, teenagers and their parents at London's Royal Lancaster Hotel to honour the brave achievements of children battling serious illnesses. In this warm atmosphere, Harry chatted with the families, joked and answered questions - much to the delight of the press, who were of course present as always.
The moment when seven-year-old Noah Nicholson from Grimsby, who according to The Independent suffers from a serious illness, touched Harry's beard and cheeks is particularly touching. The Prince burst out laughing, in a beautiful moment between the two. But that's not the only thing the reporters noticed that day.
Prince Harry's tie
According to Bunte, Harry's eye-catching light blue tie, which is decorated with lots of little sharks, also caught the attention of observers at the WellChild Awards. So even without the presence of his wife Meghan, the 40-year-old's solo appearance was definitely notable.
According to Bunte, his fashion statement could be a tribute to his uncle, Prince Edward, who is known for his animal tie motifs. Prince William's little brother will be remembered for his humour as well as his unique style. No matter what, he definitely made that little boy happy, at least for a day.
