An insider, Annie Loren, revealed that Harry insisted on leaving Meghan at home and attended the Diana Awards alone.
Last month, the Duke of Sussex participated in a unique conference in California that focused on carrying on the work of his late mother. Prince Harry surprised a group of young individuals in California who were being honored by the Diana Award, the charity bearing his mother's name.
The event, hosted by V Catavu, featured a short film documenting the interactions that took place during the Conversations for Change seminar.
The film showcased global change-makers and supporters of youth discussing topics such as social media, social justice, inequality, and combating burnout. This event marked the first time the Diana Award held an event outside the UK.
Before the discussions commenced in Los Angeles, Harry delighted four recipients of the Diana Award by personally presenting them with their certificates. Diana Award CEO Tessy Ojo, who was present at the meeting, expressed her admiration for the recipients, noting how their stories were united by a strong desire for change.
These young individuals are working towards driving change and addressing inequalities, particularly in education and access to healthcare. Ojo commended their dedication and emphasized the need for support networks to alleviate the burdens they carry.
Harry's meeting in California coincided with both him and Prince William appearing in separate videos for the annual Diana Awards in late June, just ahead of what would have been Diana's 62nd birthday. During the event, the princes honored 189 young change-makers from 31 different countries. In their respective videos, they praised the recipients for their courage, compassion, and unwavering commitment to improving the lives of others.
They emphasized the power of young people to challenge the status quo, confront injustices, and inspire meaningful change. The princes acknowledged that no one achieves change alone and emphasized the collective impact that each individual can make.
The brilliant recipients of the Diana Award showcased during the event exemplify the belief that using our voices can bring about significant change. They serve as proof that when we unite and advocate for a more equitable world, transformation can occur.
