Who is Prince Harry?

Prince Henry of Wales, familiarly known as Prince Harry, is the younger son of Charles, and Diana. At the time of his birth, he was third in the line of succession to succeed his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, but is currently fifth in line after his father, his elder brother Prince William, and William’s children, George and Charlotte.

Harry launched the Invictus Games in 2014 and remains a patron of its Foundation. He also gives patronage to several other organizations, like the HALO Trust, the London Marathon Charitable Trust, and Walking With The Wounded.

Prince Harry: Age, Parents, Siblings, Ethnicity

Prince Harry was born Henry Charles Albert David on 15 September 1984, at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, on 15 September 1984 at 4:20 pm. He was baptized on 21 December 1984 at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert Runcie. 

Princess Diana wanted Harry and William to have a broader range of experiences than previous royal children and took them to venues. Harry began to accompany his parents on official visits at an early age; his first overseas tour was with his parents to Italy in 1985.

Harry’s parents divorced in 1996, and his mother died following a car accident in Paris the following year. At his mother’s funeral, Harry, who was then 12, accompanied his father, brother, paternal grandfather, and maternal uncle, in walking behind the funeral cortège from Kensington Palace to Westminster Abbey.

Education

Like his father & brother, Harry was educated at independent schools, starting at Jane Mynors’ nursery school & the pre-preparatory Wetherby School, both in London. Following this, he attended Ludgrove School, &, after passing the entrance exams, was admitted to Eton College.

The decision to place him at Eton went against the Windsor family convention of sending children to Gordonstoun; it did, however, see Harry follow in the Spencer family’s footsteps, as both Diana’s father and brother attended Eton.

In June 2003, Harry completed his education at Eton with two A-Levels, (with a grade of B in art & D in geography) having decided to drop the history of art after AS level. He excelled in sports, particularly the polo & rugby union.

Passing two A-levels, Harry was eligible to apply for an officer commission in the British Army. One of Harry’s former teachers, Sarah Forsyth, has assessed that Harry was a “weak student” and that staff at Eton conspired to help Harry cheat on examinations. Both Eton and Harry denied the claims.
