Prince Harry has made peace with the loss of his late mother, Princess Diana, acknowledging the pain of grieving.
Harry, a global ambassador for Scotty's Little Soldiers, discusses the impact of bereavement on children, a topic close to home after his own tragic loss.
Harry experiences guilt over losing his mother, deciding to be sad to prove their missedness, but then realizing they must want him to be happy.
Scott's charity aims to help fallen military soldiers' children by celebrating their parents' lives, and Harry shares his perspective on coping with loss, stating that discussing their loss can make things easier.
The speaker explains that discussing a child's death can be challenging, but when it's done with celebration, it can make things easier.
Harry acknowledges that suppressing grief temporarily can help with loss, but it's not sustainable and can exacerbate internal issues, despite defense mechanisms.
Harry and Prince William lost Diana at age 12 and 15, respectively, to their father King Charles. Diana's funeral took place a week later.
