Harry virtually met with the winners of the 2022 WellChild Award last week. “That is a very, very cool award,” the Duke said as four-year-old Henry showed him his award. “I was supposed to be the one giving it to you and I was sadly not able to be there.”

Harry, who is patron of the children’s charity, was due to attend the 2022 WellChild Awards on Sept. 8, but canceled his appearance and traveled to Balmoral, where his grandmother  Queen Elizabeth died that afternoon.

Following the death of Her Majesty, Harry recalled his late grandmother meeting his and Meghan’s children. “Granny, while this final parting brings us great sadness, I am forever grateful for all of our first meetings—from my earliest childhood memories with you, to meeting you for the first time as my Commander-in-Chief, to the first moment you met my darling wife and hugged your beloved great-grandchildren,” Harry said in a statement. “I cherish these times shared with you, and the many other special moments in between. You are already sorely missed, not just by us, but by the world over. And as it comes to first meetings, we now honour my father in his new role as King Charles III.”
