A look back at Prince Harry’s life in pictures – as the Duke of Sussex turns 40.
Prince Harry has turned 40 – spending his birthday in his new California home, where he lives with his wife Meghan and his children Archie and Lilibet.
This is a look at his life – from newborn baby to cheeky toddler, from teenager to man.
Harry was born on 15 September 1984 at St Mary’s Hospital, London.
As a young boy he was close to his mother Lady Diana and older brother William.
His parents divorced in 1996 – and Harry’s life changed forever when Lady Diana died in a car crash in Paris in 1997.
Harry, then aged 12, and William walked behind her coffin as it proceeded through the streets from Kensington Palace to Westminster Abbey.
Harry later said no child “should be asked to do” what they did.
After the death of Diana, Harry became even closer to William.
Harry said of William when he turned 21: “Ever since our mother died, obviously we were close, but he is the one person on this earth who I can actually really… we can talk about anything.”
