Prince Harry Showered with Love from Public During Dueling Event with Charles

Prince Harry was without his Royal family during his Invictus Games event in London this week — but he wasn’t a man without a country … ’cause the British public showed up.

The Duke of Sussex attended his big shindig at St. Paul’s Cathedral Thursday to help ring in the 10-year anniversary of his famous charity — and while he didn’t have his dad, brother, or any other working Royal in attendance to help him celebrate … he still powered through.

Harry showed up with a smile on before and after the commemoration … and he even did a public walkabout to shake hands and exchange pleasantries with Britons on the ground.

While it might not seem like much on its face … it’s actually telling, especially since King Charles — who said he wouldn’t be able to meet with Harry during his time in London — was hosting his own bash around the same time Thursday … where he was shaking hands too.

Worth noting … there weren’t any senior Royals in attendance for Harry’s thing, but they definitely showed up for Charles. People of note who did go to Harry’s event, however … his extended family on his mother’s side — who put on a united front as they hit the church.

Again … Harry put out a statement saying he understood his father was swamped and unable to get together — and as polite as he’s being publicly … ya gotta imagine this hurts a bit.

It goes without saying … their relationship has been strained in recent years — especially after Harry abandoned his Royal post and flew on over to California with Meghan Markle to start a new life.

The saga is well-documented … and while Harry and Charles have met and seen each other sporadically since the dust settled on all that — it’s clear they’re still not the closest right now.
