Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent outings have been full of adorable meet-and-greets, sweet speeches, and shared laughs, and on Friday, their visit to Bristol's Empire Fighting Chance boxing charity brought about an especially sentimental moment. After learning that one of the young boxers named Iestyn Jones was mourning the loss of his father, Harry asked everyone to leave the room so he could privately speak to the young boy and offer his condolences.
According to Iestyn, he and the royal prince spoke for 10 minutes about loss and heartache. Harry - who lost his mother, Princess Diana, in a car accident when he was 12 - told Iestyn, "The same thing happened to me." The young boxer went on to describe how meaningful the conversation was. "It just got a bit emotional because he mentioned something. He knew some stuff about me and the same thing happened to me," Iestyn told reporters.
