Prince Harry is a doting uncle to his nephews Prince George and Prince Louis, as well as his niece Princess Charlotte. During Queen Elizabeth’s funeral, the Duke of Sussex was spotted sharing a sweet moment with Prince William and Kate Middleton’s only daughter.
Prince Harry and Princess Charlotte sat beside each other inside the chapel. And they exchanged glances before smiling at each other from ear to ear.
Prince Harry Was Asked About His Position In The Order Of Succession Following Princess Charlotte’s Birth?
In his book Spare, the Duke of Sussex detailed his reaction after learning that Middleton finally gave birth to Princess Charlotte in 2015. He said that he was thrilled to learn that there was a new addition to their growing family.
However, things took a turn for the worse after a reporter asked Prince Harry about being bumped further down the line of succession following the arrival of Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
“A journalist questioned me about it as though I’d received a terminal diagnosis. I thought: First of all, it’s a good thing to be farther from the center of a volcano. Second, what kind of monster would think of himself and his place in the line of succession at such a time, rather than welcoming a new life into the world?” he said (via Us Weekly).
