Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, was born on September 15, 1984, to Charles, now King Charles III, and the late Diana, Princess of Wales. He is the younger brother of Prince William, Prince of Wales, and is currently fifth in line to the British throne[1][2][3]. Prince Harry attended prestigious educational institutions, including Eton College, and later enrolled in the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 2005[1][4]. He served in the British Army, completing two tours in Afghanistan, initially as a Forward Air Controller and later as an Apache helicopter pilot[3][4]. One of Prince Harry's most notable achievements is the founding of the Invictus Games in 2014, a Paralympic-style sporting event for wounded veterans. He also co-founded Sentebale, a charity supporting children affected by HIV/AIDS in Lesotho[2][3]. In addition to these charitable endeavors, Prince Harry has been a patron to several organizations, including the HALO Trust and the London Marathon Charitable Trust[2]. In 2018, Prince Harry married Meghan Markle, now known as Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. The couple has two children, Archie and Lilibet, who are seventh and eighth in line to the throne, respectively[1][2]. In early 2020, they stepped back from their royal duties and later co-founded the nonprofit Archewell. Prince Harry has also been involved in media projects, including a documentary series with Netflix and the release of his memoir, "Spare"[1][6]. Currently, Prince Harry and his family reside in California, where they continue their philanthropic work. His focus on mental health, environmental issues, and children's welfare remains prominent in his public life[1][8]. Despite facing challenges related to media scrutiny and public perception, Prince Harry remains a significant figure in global philanthropy and advocacy[6].

Prince Andrew, Duke of York (Andrew Albert Christian Edward Mountbatten Windsor), born on 19 February 1960 at Buckingham Palace, London, is a member of the British royal family. He is the third child and second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and the younger brother of King Charles III. Prince Andrew was born second in the line of succession to the British throne and is currently eighth, being the first in the line who is not a descendant of the reigning monarch. Andrew served in the Royal Navy from 1979 to 2001, reaching the rank of Vice Admiral. He was a helicopter pilot and participated in the Falklands War, flying missions including anti-surface warfare, casualty evacuation, and Exocet missile decoy operations. His naval service included command of a warship and he was promoted to commander in 1999 and honorary captain in 2001. In 1986, Andrew married Sarah Ferguson, and they have two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. The couple separated in 1992 and divorced in 1996, events that received significant media attention. As Duke of York, Andrew undertook official duties and engagements on behalf of the Queen and served as the UK's Special Representative for International Trade and Investment from 2001 until 2011. Andrew resigned from royal duties in November 2019 following increased scrutiny related to his association with Jeffrey Epstein. In 2025, under further public and political pressure, he agreed to stop using his royal titles, although Parliament has not formally voted to remove his title of Duke of York. He currently resides at Royal Lodge, though reports indicate his lease on the property has ended and he may relocate to a privately-owned property. Andrew remains a figure of public discussion, particularly regarding his titles and role within the royal family.
