Prince Harry Stole The Internet’s Heart Last Night As He Got Tearful On Stage Speaking About His Son
We’re not crying, you are.
A video has emerged of Prince Harry getting emotional as he gave his speech at the WellChild Awards, and someone needs to pass us a tissue because it has absolutely pulled at our heart strings.
Prince Harry is many people’s favourite member of the Royal Family. Following his own rules for much of his life, Harry still continues to grab the public’s attention for all the right reasons, and his speech at last night’s WellChild awards is no different.
Recalling last year’s ceremony, he spoke about the early stages of his wife Meghan’s pregnancy:
“Last year when my wife and I attended we knew we were expecting our first child – no one else did at the time, but we did.”
Continuing he said:
“And I remember squeezing Meghan’s hand so tight during the awards, both of us thinking what it would be like to be parents one day.

Harry then begins to get a little choked up, as he continues to speak about life as a now family of three.
“And now, as parents, being here and speaking to all of you pulls at my heartstrings in a way I could have never understood until I had a child of my own.”
Since the video emerging, people have been taking to Twitter to share the love for Harry.

In May of this year, Harry and Meghan welcomed their son, Prince Archie, to the world.
When speaking with guests at last night’s award ceremony, Meghan Markle revealed that it seems the little Prince has inherited his Dad’s ginger hair, and also enjoyed his first playgroup class last week.
Ah, they grow up so fast, he’ll be drinking cans before we know it.
