Prince Harry dubbed 'People's Prince', gets compared to Diana during UK trip

Prince Harry has been hailed as “the people’s prince” following a touching exchange with a well-wisher during his four-day trip to the UK.

On Tuesday, the Duke of Sussex visited the Community Recording Studio (CRS) in Nottingham, where he announced a personal £1.1 million donation to BBC Children in Need. 

The generous gift, which came directly from his own funds rather than the Archewell Foundation, will support grassroots organizations helping young people affected by violence.

Despite arriving 45 minutes late due to a Tube strike in London, Harry was all smiles as he waved to the crowd of around 100 people who had gathered to see him. 

As he headed into the studio, a woman shouted, “Harry, we love you!” The Duke turned back with a big grin, a moment that quickly went viral online.

Fans rushed to social media to share their admiration. One wrote: “The People’s Prince. Just like his mother!” 

Another said: “A man of dignity and honor who stood strong for the people he loves. We love Harry.”

During his speech, Harry emphasized that his contribution was “an investment in futures, in hope, in keeping young people safe,” but added that real change requires collaboration from government, schools, charities, and businesses.
