Royal fans spot Prince Harry's heartwarming gesture as he's praised for visiting Ukraine following meeting with King Charles

Prince Harry has visited Ukraine with the Invictus Foundation, and fans have noticed one detail that has been making them feel all fuzzy inside.

The Duke of Sussex left his home in California to visit the UK to see King Charles following his cancer diagnosis, and during that time, he also headed to the Foundation’s event.

Royal fans were happy to hear about the long-awaited reunion (10 September), and see what it could bring for their relationship.

Harry and his dad have not seen each other in 19 months, as their relationship deteriorated following his move to the US to start a new life with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Harry also stepped down as a working senior royal family member in 2020, which meant that he didn’t really have a reason to see his family half way across the world.

Harry went on to attend The Gherkin in the City of London where he spoke with corporate sponsors and Government ministers as part of the Invictus Foundation event.

Now, he’s gone to Ukraine with the Foundation group to promote the rehabilitation of wounded soldiers.

This isn't the first time he’s been, as he previously visited the country in April, and travelled to Lyiv, where the Superhumans Trauma Centre is situated - a centre that specialises in treating amputees.

Through the Invictus Games, which is something he launched in 2014 after leaving the army, Harry has regularly scheduled philanthropic visits and events.

However, this time he went to Kyiv, right into the heart of the conflict and where government buildings were hit by Russian missiles just last weekend.

Videos of his entrance to the city were released online, with many praising him for his casual look.

In the clip, he gets off a train and is greeting with hugs and handshakes before being given an engraved glass as a gift.

He is wearing an Invictus Games jacket, jeans and boots.

Fans shared that this is what a royal should look like when visiting countries during war.

One person wrote: “Prince Harry arriving in Ukraine . This is what “ a working royal ” looks like . And he didn’t need taxpayers money …”

Another said: “Prince Harry arrives in Ukraine . Now that’s what a real prince looks like active on the ground. And he didn’t need a single penny from taxpayers to do it. While some heirs spend their time counting titles and complaining, he acts, supports, and makes a real difference.”

But another thing people spotted was that he did something very heartwarming before jetting off to Ukraine; he asked his wife’s permission.

The Duke told the Guardian that Olga Rudnieva, the CEO and Founder of the Superhuman Centre, asked him to come, after they had a ‘chance meeting’ in New York.

Before making the decision, he asked Meghan and said: “I had to check with my wife and the British government to make sure it was OK.”

Once both gave the go ahead, he let the Ukrainian government know, and the trip was scheduled.

Fans online were smitten by this, with one writing: “Harry saying he didn’t just have to check with the UK government but “my wife” too regarding the decision to come to Kyiv, Ukraine. I know that’s right A man that consults his partner over a decision to go to a war zone.Not a small decision at all!”

"We cannot stop the war, but what we can do is do everything we can to help the recovery process," Harry told the Guardian, explaining the reasons for his trip.

"We can continue to humanise the people involved in this war and what they are going through. We have to keep it in the forefront of people's minds. I hope this trip will help to bring it home to people because it’s easy to become desensitised to what has been going on."
