Prince Harry states ‘silence is killing people’

Prince Harry made a vulnerable statement during his recent outing.

On October 8, the Duke of Sussex attended the men's health charity Movember in New York where he spoke about the mental health crisis.

The father-of-two highlighted the growing crisis of men suffering in silence and isolation.

“I found myself speaking to many veterans and sitting down with them I realized the silence is killing people.”, Harry spoke at the event.

Harry participated in a panel discussion for the launch of a Movember Institute of Men’s Health report.

He was joined by researchers Dr. Zac Seidler, Movember’s Global Director of Men's Health Research and Calvin Abbasi of the ANDRON Project.

The report revealed that 53 percent of men in the US die before their 75th birthday.

The Duke called for more accessible therapy for men saying “Stamping out the stigma globally, we’ve come a long way. Access to therapy is still a massive problem.”

“Loneliness convinces you you’re the only one, which is rarely true”, he added.

He also highlighted the issue of young men being influenced by algorithms rather than real-life mentors.

The appearance came just hours before Harry and Meghan are scheduled to attend the Project Healthy Minds gala.
