Ex PM Boris Johnson reveals in the newly published political memoirs detailing his career, that both BP and Downing St officials asked him (at practically the last minute) to change Harry's mind about leaving royal duties.

Johnson states in these memoirs that it was a hopeless task.

Prince Harry joins TV host Jimmy Fallon on a Haunted House tour (which will later be briefly open to the public) though he wasn't interviewed. They both had a ball. Some of the characters were very surprised when later they were told who Fallon's companion was!

Seems like an odd choice of person to try and persuade Harry from not leaving.

Harry will be visiting Lesotho early next month to support Sentebale and other African charities, it has just been announced.

'Prince Harry's latest philanthropic move will gather world business leaders and philanthropists to work towards fostering prosperity in Southern African communities.'

'In early October, Harry's charity organization Sentebale, which he co-founded with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho in 2006, will bring together leaders from Google's charitable arm and several other companies and organizations for a series of meetings and discussions in Lesotho and Johannesburg.'

Good for Harry if he thinks this helps with his profile. We'll see what happens

Quote from: PrincessOfPeace on September 28, 2024, 01:07:05 PMThe Telegraph: Palace 'did not ask Boris Johnson to persuade Prince Harry to stay in UK

That quote above ends with 'The Telegraph understands'. Hardly unequivocal.

And a 2020 report from Sky News makes it clear that at the very least Boris and Prince Harry had a private meeting on Jan 20th 2020 just before Harry left the UK, and after the UK-Africa conference, at which they were alone and spoke privately.



Report from Sky News from Jan 20th 2020 on private meeting between PM Boris Johnson and Prince Harry.
