Prince Harry, who relocated to the US with his family after stepping down as senior working royals in 2020, shared a heartfelt connection with Princess Charlotte during a poignant occasion.
The emotional encounter unfolded as the royal family gathered to bid farewell to the late Queen Elizabeth in 2022.
Joined by Prince George and Princess Charlotte, along with their parents and other members of the royal family, they paid their respects to the UK's longest-reigning monarch and their great-grandmother, all under the watchful gaze of cameras.
As the late Queen's coffin was transferred to the state hearse en route to St. George's Chapel, Windsor for the Committal Service, Princess Charlotte reminded her elder brother to bow, a touching moment observed by onlookers.
During the Committal Service, Princess Charlotte was seated between her mother, Kate, and her uncle, Prince Harry. A tender exchange occurred between Harry and Charlotte, where he briefly caught her eye and shared a smile with the young princess.
Since Prince Harry's move to California, opportunities to spend time with his niece and nephews, as well as his brother William and sister-in-law Kate, have been limited.
Despite speculation during his last visit to the UK in May about a potential reunion with the Waleses, it did not materialize. However, reports suggest that Harry and Meghan reached out to Kate after her illness was announced, offering their support and respecting her request for privacy during her recovery.
