Prince Harry raises eyebrows as he delivers powerful message to King Charles

Prince Harry seems to have missed a chance to make his cancer-stricken father King Charles proud with his gesture during his latest appearance.

The Duke of Sussex, who was set to travel to the UK in May to take part in the tenth anniversary celebrations of his Invictus Games, surprisingly left behind King Charles’s coronation medal as he presented ‘Soldier of the Year’ at a ceremony Year Award.

Harry decided not to wear the coronation medal given to him by his father King Charles on his chest. However, he wore four other medals. He raised an eyebrow at his decision.

According to some, the Duke’s move appeared to be an insult to his father and Queen Camilla as he avoided wearing the medal, which features portraits of both the royals.

The king’s coronation medal, made of nickel silver, features a double portrait of King Charles and Queen Camilla and was given to Harry and others as a thank you gift.

He presented the award to Sergeant First Class Elizabeth Marks, an American combat medic, for her “courage, resilience and determination.”

He wore a black suit jacket, dark red tie and four military medals. These include the Operational Service Medal for Afghanistan, which he earned for his service in Helmand province in 2008.

He also wore the late Queen’s Golden Jubilee Medal, which was awarded in 2002 to all those who had served on active service for five years.

One of the awards was Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee Medal, awarded in 2012 to the emergency services, the armed forces, the prison service and members of the royal household. Harry also wore the late Queen’s platinum jubilee medal.

In his statement, Harry also epitomized Ellie’s courage to “overcome every obstacle to overcome her path.”

Harry said: “She has turned her pain into purpose and moved forward through compassion and willpower, and has shown others that the impossible really is possible.”
