Duke of Sussex Commended for Solo Charitable Focus as King Battles Cancer
Prince Harry has been lauded for his recent decision to pursue solo engagements, particularly in South Africa, as his father King Charles faces a battle with cancer. The Duke of Sussex, currently on a trip without Meghan Markle, has been praised for distancing himself from their joint ventures, which have faced setbacks.
Royal commentator Rae noted that Harry appears "happier without Meghan," and commended his renewed focus on individual charity work. "It's nice to see Harry back doing what we like him to do," Rae remarked.
Harry’s itinerary has included attending the WellChild Awards in the UK, where he has been a long-time supporter, as well as continuing his work in Lesotho with Sentebale, the charity he co-founded to honour his mother. Rae pointed out that Harry will extend his stay with further charitable work in Johannesburg, highlighting his commitment to important causes.
The commentator also observed a shift in Harry's demeanour, noting that he "looks great and smiley," contrasting with previous appearances where he seemed less enthusiastic. Rae suggested that this solo focus could help rebuild Harry's public image.
Rae went on to say that Harry does not need high-profile deals like those with Netflix or Spotify to support his life in California, stressing that the Duke is financially secure. He believes that by continuing with meaningful charity work, Harry will regain public admiration.
On the topic of the ongoing royal rift, Rae acknowledged that the distance between Harry, his father King Charles, and brother Prince William will take time to heal.
