Prince Harry’s Heartwarming Return to WellChild Awards: A Look Back at His Touching Moment From Last Year

Prince Harry [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/prince-harry/] has been a
longstanding supporter of charity work. Believing in the work of good deed, the
Duke of Sussex had been involved in several such pursuits since a young age. One
of his long-standing works has been the Invictus Games. Started as a sporting
endeavor to honor sick and injured veterans of the army, he created a
multi-sport event in their honor. Not only was he the founding patron in 2014,
but the Duke also dedicated his recent Heart of Invictus to it. Meghan Markle’s

Archewell Productions, joined hands with Netflix for the docuseries. 

Prince Harry has been involved in a charitable organization that provides care
to seriously ill children. Like his noble patronage of the war veterans, he is
also a patron of WellChild. Here is a look back at when he won the heart of a
little girl at the Awards function in 2017. 


PRINCE HARRY WINS THE HEART OF A YOUNG AWARDEE

The Duke of Sussex has always demonstrated his kind and empathetic nature.
Leaving the viewers of the first episode of

of Invictus teary-eyed, the Prince has a knack for expressing his compassion
through his work. Attending the 2017 WellChild Awards, the Duke won over the
heart of a young girl, Erin Cross. An awardee at the event, the Duke kneeled
down on the ground to reach the shy girl’s height. He was carrying a picture
frame in his hand, trying to make the little child feel comfortable. The Prince
was focused on creating a cozy ambiance for Cross between the commotion and
shutter sounds.

In a heartwarming gesture, he even shielded the girl’s face with the frame,
trying to protect her from the overwhelming presence of the crowd around them.
The sweet gesture won the hearts of the little girl immediately and of people
all over the world. She was seen giggling and immediately warming up to the
Duke. The kindness and love he radiated traveled across the room.

Undoubtedly, the Duke has an empathetic nature that translates into his actions.
But this comes from years of experience of being personally trampled by the
press. 


THE DUKE HAS A TASTE OF THE PRESS  

The Prince has been honest about his distaste of the press and its effect on his
childhood for some time now. Even suing media houses in the UK, the Duke of
Sussex blamed tabloids for ruining his childhood and causing distress at a young
age. This is probably why he stood against them, when the tabloids focused him
and his wife for almost everything. 



He later revealed that it was something he had worn at the suggestion of Prince
William and Kate Middleton. The tabloids blew it out of proportion and held him
at stake. Knowing the overwhelming nature of cameras and the paparazzi himself,
his touching gesture for the girl stemmed from a place of natural empathy.
