Prince Harry Declares “I Love My Family” After Quick Reunion With His Father

As a part of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s trip to Canada for an Invictus Games event, the prince opened up about his recent trip to the UK to visit with his father after King Charles III announced a cancer diagnosis. In conversation with Good Morning America’s Will Reeve, he explained his whirlwind 24-hour trip to London, where he spent time with the king at Clarence House.

“I jumped on a plane and went to go see him as soon as I could,” he said. “Look, I love my family. The fact that I was able to get on a plane and go and see him and spend any time with him, I’m grateful for that.” When asked about his outlook on the king’s health. Harry declined to comment. “That stays between me and him,” he said.

Harry added that his experience with the Invictus Games, the sporting competition for injured veterans he founded in 2014, helped him understand that illness can help bring a family together. “Throughout all of these families, I see it on a day-to-day basis, again, the strength of the family unit coming together,” the prince said. “So, yeah, I think any illness, any sickness, brings families together. I see it time and time again, and that makes me very happy.”

The Prince mentioned that he is also focused on his own young family, which includes son Archie, 4, and daughter Lilibet, 2. “They have got an incredible sense of humor and make us laugh and keep us grounded every single day, like most kids do,” he said. “I’m just grateful to be a dad.”

Harry and Meghan traveled to Canada on Wednesday to attend the One Year to Go training camp event for the 2025 Games in Vancouver and Whistler, which will introduce a handful of adaptive winter sports alongside the usual competitions in basketball, swimming, and sitting volleyball, and wheelchair rugby. On their first day, Meghan and Harry joined a group of veterans who were practicing adaptive skiing at a camp in Whistler, and Harry even got in a sit-ski to try it out for a run, before later meeting with a group of First Nations artists who designed the logos for the 2025 events. 

On Thursday, Harry took Reeve along as he got on a skeleton bobsled and went down the ice track headfirst, hitting a top speed of 99 kilometers an hour (60 mph). Afterward, the prince explained why he likes to get involved with the competitors at the game.  “To see the smiles on their faces and then to hear the stories at the end and the excitement and just the happiness, that’s what this is all about,” he said. “This is what it’s all about and as long as it’s safe, we will continue to facilitate these kinds of opportunities for them.”
