Prince Harry shared insights into his son Archie’s future ambitions in the newly-released Netflix documentary series “Heart of Invictus.” The Duke of Sussex discussed how his 4-year-old son harbors various career dreams as he looks ahead.
During a poignant speech at the Games in The Hague last April, Prince Harry candidly shared, “When I talk to my son Archie about what he wants to be when he grows up, some days it’s an astronaut, some days it’s a pilot.” This whimsical uncertainty is a hallmark of childhood imagination and curiosity.
Prince Harry further emphasized the importance of character in shaping one’s life path. He noted, “But what I remind him is no matter what you want to be when you grow up, it’s your character that matters most. And nothing would make his mum and me prouder than to see him have the character of what we see before us today – you.” This sentiment underlines the values he hopes to impart to his son.
Archie’s budding interest in aviation might be linked to his father’s own experiences in the field. Prince Harry’s military career included serving as a pilot in the British Army, where he held positions such as an Apache helicopter commander and co-pilot gunner during his deployment.
Prince Harry’s recent Netflix project, “Heart of Invictus,” premiered on August 30. The documentary provides a unique glimpse into his interactions with athletes participating in the Invictus Games, an event that Prince Harry established in 2014. The games aim to offer injured service personnel and veterans a chance at renewed purpose and camaraderie.
As Prince Harry continues to shape his post-royal life, his dedication to meaningful projects and sharing personal stories remains a source of inspiration to many. His ability to balance his royal lineage with a genuine commitment to making a positive impact continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
