Prince Harry has surprised military kids who’ve lost their parents with sweet gesture.
The Duke of Sussex dressed up as Spider Man to deliver a video message to the children whose parents died while serving in the British Armed Forces.
The 38-year-old told kids why they don’t need to feel guilty for wanting to enjoy the Christmas festivities.
“Christmas is a time when we miss our loved ones really, really badly, and that’s OK, but at the same time, it can be possible to feel guilty for having fun without our parents,” Harry sweetly said in a clip.
“But I’m here to assure you that our parents always want us to have fun, so don’t feel guilty. You’re allowed to have the best time ever, especially with this Scotty’s Little Soldiers community.”
“So, go out there, have the best time and Merry Christmas,” he said while lifting his mask to reveal his identity.
Prince Harry’s sweet gesture comes amid controversy over his and his wife Meghan Markle’s new Netflix bombshell docuseries Harry & Meghan.
The six-part series, which airs on December 8, will share “the other side” of the couple’s love story and the challenges they faced.
The bombshell one-minute-long trailer was released on Thursday.
The teaser for Harry & Meghan strongly suggests the couple will confront rumours about their strained relationship with the Royal Family head-on.
In one scene, Meghan says to the camera: “When the stakes are this high, doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?”
The trailer also features a voiceover from Harry saying “no one sees what’s happening behind closed doors” over a black and white picture of Meghan seemingly crying.
The teaser then cuts to a shot of a tense Prince William and Kate Middleton at the 2019 Commonwealth Service in London, with the Sussexes sitting behind them.
Royal sources have since told The Daily Mail: “I don’t see how anyone could view it as anything other than a declaration of war.”
Friends of William and Kate are said to be “sickened” by the implications drawn from the image used in the trailer.
Another insider remarked: “It’s as if someone scoured the Earth for the only unflattering picture of the Princess of Wales in existence.”
Harry and Meghan, who live in California with their two children, moved to America after they stepped down as senior working royals in March 2020.
Since then, there has been an evident rift between them and Harry’s family, especially with William and Kate.
The couples stepped out in public together for the first time in over two years when they visited Windsor on Saturday, September 10, in wake of the Queen’s death.
It was later reported that William “invited” the couple to join him and Kate to put on a “united front”.
Days later, a royal insider claimed the Prince and Princess of Wales struck a “truce” with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but all trust between them is “gone”.
The source told The Telegraph: “It’s really hard to spend time with someone, or even to speak openly, when you know they’re writing a book about you and giving interviews. The trust is gone right now.”
