Prince Harry recently enjoyed a solo visit to Vancouver, Canada, where he spent time connecting with children at a local school. His appearance was notably relaxed and full of the warmth he was once known for before stepping away from royal life, showing a lighter, more carefree side.
According to former royal photographer Arthur, who shared his thoughts with The Sun, the photos of Harry interacting with the children were especially heartwarming. “The images of Harry laughing with the kids were such a joy,” he remarked. “They were all clearly having a great time, and it was a reminder of how he used to be, so full of energy and happiness when meeting young people.”
Arthur, who has had the opportunity to photograph Harry in various settings over the years, expressed how uplifting it was to see the Duke so happy and engaged with the younger generation. “It’s always been special photographing Harry with young people. His connection with them always created such a positive atmosphere, and it was wonderful to see that again,” he said.
Since stepping down from royal duties in 2020 with his wife Meghan Markle and their son Archie, Harry and his family relocated to California. The couple has since been open about their challenges, particularly the racism they experienced within the royal family, and they have focused on building a new life in the United States. They later welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet, to the family.
This visit to Canada marked a return to the Harry many remember—a prince known for his genuine, heartfelt interactions with others. His recent appearance has served as a reminder of the joy he once brought to the public, especially in his work with young people around the world.
