Prince Harry lands safely after skydiving in Ontario
The charity jump raised funds for Sunnybrook and True Patriot Love Foundation, while Harry fulfilled a promise to the veteran he met last year.
- On Friday, Prince Harry completed a charity skydive in Cookstown, Ontario, honoring 102-year-old Second World War veteran Marshall, fulfilling a promise made after meeting him at Sunnybrook Hospital last year.
- Marshall, a former paratrooper, previously completed his own fundraising skydive at 100; Harry committed to the challenge supporting the True Patriot Love Foundation and Sunnybrook, stating, "There's no version where you can let a 102-year-old veteran down."
- Because a heart condition prevented Marshall from participating, his grandson Bailey accompanied the Duke instead, with Harry saying, "He was devastated that he couldn't jump, but it was great to have him in the back."
- Immediately after landing, Harry called Meghan Markle to share the experience, revealing to a CTV interviewer, "I didn't have to convince her, but she was relieved once we were down."
- Following his family's recent return to Britain, Harry emphasized his military connections, stating it is "great to be back on British soil" and looking forward to the Invictus Games in Birmingham next year.
