The Duke of Sussex revealed he is already talking to son Archie about what he wants to be when he grows up - and it seems the two-year-old might like to follow in his father’s footsteps. Harry, addressing the audience at the Invictus Games opening ceremony in The Hague, Netherlands, said Archie has expressed an interest in becoming a pilot, with the duke joking that he obviously means a helicopter pilot.
Harry served in Afghanistan as an Apache helicopter co-pilot gunner during 2012-13. Harry spoke to the crowd, which included former and serving military personnel taking part in the games, about role models and the importance of “character”.
He said: “To be role models, or the role models, that each of you are takes strength and it takes courage. When I talk to my son Archie about what he wants to be when he grows up, some days it’s an astronaut, other days it’s a pilot - a helicopter pilot obviously. Or Kwazii from Octonauts. If you’re laughing then you’ve seen that.
