During the appearance The Duke of Sussex reportedly revealed he has been in therapy for the past few years coping with the loss of his mother.

Harry also said he did not regret stepping down as a senior royal, as he did not want Meghan and son Archie to experience what he went through when younger.

The New York Post reported Harry attended the event in Miami on Thursday and the newspaper quoted a source as saying: “Harry spoke about mental health and how he has been in therapy for the past few years to try to overcome the trauma of losing his mother.

“He talked about how the events of his childhood affected him and that he has been talking to a mental health professional.
