Prince Harry said he hopes he makesPrincess Diana proud with theInvictus Games .- "I certainly hope and believe everything I do makes her proud," Harry told People magazine.
Prince Harry said he hopes he makes his mother, Princess Diana, proud with the Invictus Games, according to a new interview with the royal in People magazine.
When asked how he continues to honor his mother at the 2022 Invictus Games, which took place in April in the Netherlands, he said he tries to remember the late Princess Diana in everything he does.
"I certainly hope and believe everything I do makes her proud," Prince Harry told People.
"In the 12 short years I was lucky enough to have with her, I saw and felt the energy and lift she got from helping others, no matter their background, ailment, or status," he continued. "Her life and theirs was better for it, however short theirs or hers was."
"I honor my mother in everything I do. I am my mother's son," he said.
Prince Harry started the Invictus Games in 2014 as a tournament for wounded, injured, and sick service members. After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the Games returned this year.
In 2016, ahead of the second Invictus Games, Prince Harry told People that all he wants to do is "make my mother incredibly proud."
At the time, he said when she died, she left a "gaping hole" in his life and the lives of many others.
"If I can try and fill a very small part of that, then job done. I will have to, in a good way, spend the rest of my life trying to fill that void as much as possible," he told People in 2016.
