This morning, the Duke made a visit to Whitten Oval in Footscray, where he spent time learning the nuances of the game from Western Bulldogs players. He also took the opportunity to engage with young fans and meet members of The Wiggles.
During his time at the club, Harry participated in a private event for Movember. There, he opened up about his personal experiences with therapy and reflected on how becoming a father has influenced his life.
In a Q&A session, as reported by the Press Association, Harry shared, “From a therapy perspective, it’s important to be the best version of yourself for your children. I recognized that I had unresolved issues from my past that needed addressing to truly move forward.”
As a gesture of welcome, he was gifted Western Bulldogs jerseys, each personalized with the names of his children, Archie, who is six, and Lilibet, who is four.
He was also presented with Western Bulldogs jerseys with the names of his two children Archie, 6 and Lilibet, 4, printed on the back.
A few dozen fans lined Whitten Oval in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the prince, but he slipped in through a side exit and left through a back door.
“It’s a shame that we didn’t, but his presence was here,” a fan said.
He is expected to fly to Canberra this afternoon for a number of engagements at the Australian War Memorial.
The Prince is also scheduled to attend a reception for Invictus Australia, recognising his strong connection tho the Invictus Games – a leading sporting event for the defence community.
Meghan did not appear at this morning’s engagements and is not believed to be scheduled for public or private events today.
Prince Harry will return to Melbourne tonight ahead of a public appearance with the Duchess on the banks of the Yarra River tomorrow.
The pair are set to take part in a First Nations guided cultural walk along the Yarra, which is tipped to be the best chance for the public to see the couple.
