Prince Harry Steps Out Solo for Surprise Outing But I Couldn’t Stop Thinking of Meghan’s Heartbreaking News

Prince Harry has a lot to celebrate this week. Not only did he share good news about an ongoing legal battle, but he also received a special shout-out from Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer. And now, he’s distracting himself with some canine therapy. 

This week, Prince Harry paid a solo visit to the Salinas Fire Department, where he met with firefighters and first responders who are battling the tragic wildfires in Los Angeles. The Duke of Sussex also took a moment to recognize the station’s dogs, who likely brought a smile to his face after recent events.

This isn’t the first time that Prince Harry has offered help to those affected by the wildfires. Earlier this month, the royal and his wife, Meghan Markle, made a surprise visit to the Pasadena Convention Center, which was doubling as an evacuation site. They also volunteered to distribute free meals alongside World Central Kitchen (WCK) founder José Andrés, who has previously partnered with the Archewell Foundation.

However, Prince Harry’s recent visit with the Salinas Fire Department was likely bittersweet for him on a personal level. In early January, the royal’s wife announced on Instagram that their beloved rescue dog, Guy, sadly passed away. Markle shared a heartfelt video featuring never-before-seen footage of the four-legged pet and rare cameos by their two children, Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3.

The caption read, “I have cried too many tears to count - the type of tears that make you get in the shower with the absurd hope that the running water on your face will somehow make you not feel them, or pretend they’re not there. But they are. And that’s okay too. Thank you for so many years of unconditional love, my sweet Guy. You filled my life in ways you’ll never know.”
