Speaking about a holiday in Balmoral, Harry pens: “She was my Gan-Gan. She was born three years before the aeroplane was invented yet still played the bongo drums on her hundredth birthday."

He continues: "Now she took my hand as if I were a knight home from the wars, and spoke to me with love and humor and, that night, that magic night, respect.“
