Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, was born on September 15, 1984, as the second son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales. His full name is Henry Charles Albert David, though he is commonly known as Harry. He is a member of the British royal family and is sixth in line to the British throne. Prince Harry grew up in the public eye and attended prestigious schools, including Eton College. In his early adulthood, he trained at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and served in the British Army for ten years, reaching the rank of Captain. He undertook two tours in Afghanistan, earning respect for his service.
Prince Harry became known for his philanthropic efforts, particularly in areas related to mental health, veterans, and conservation. In 2014, he launched the Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded or sick armed forces personnel. He has also been involved in numerous charities, including Sentebale, an organization he co-founded to support vulnerable children in Lesotho and Botswana.
In 2018, Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, and the couple was given the titles Duke and Duchess of Sussex. They have two children: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, born in 2019, and Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, born in 2021. In 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan stepped back from their roles as senior members of the royal family and relocated to the United States. They have since pursued various business ventures and launched the Archewell Foundation, focusing on nonprofit work, creative media, and mental health advocacy.
