Prince Harry has jumped out of a plane over Toronto, and the reason behind it is earning him serious goodwill. He made a promise to Ed Marshall, a 102-year-old WWII veteran, to skydive in support of war charities. When Marshall was barred from jumping for medical reasons, his grandson Bailey took his place alongside Harry.
The moment getting the most attention, though, happened on the ground. Harry called Meghan immediately after landing and said she was relieved once they were safely down. He added that there was no version where he could let a 102-year-old veteran down, and jokingly blamed Marshall for persuading him to make the jump in the first place.
It all lands as Harry and Meghan settle back into the U.K. with their children after six years abroad, following their 2020 step back from senior royal duties. How would you react if your partner called you after a skydive? Let us know in the comments.
