Another day, another royal outing [1] from Prince Harry! On Friday, the Duke of Sussex celebrated the 70th anniversary of the Commonwealth at a special garden party at Marlborough House in London. As the Commonwealth Youth Ambassador [2], Harry met with the winners of the Innovation For Sustainable Development Awards, including Leilua Lino from Samoa [3], who created a peace garden to support victims of sexual violence. The Innovation For Sustainable Development Awards aim to spotlight young people who are taking action in their communities by "developing solutions to overcome challenges in areas including human rights, women's empowerment, and climate change."

Harry's solo appearance comes amid news that he and Meghan Markle will be travelling [4] to Africa in October. The royal tour will include stops in Malawi, Angola, and other areas in South Africa. According to Harper's Bazaar, baby Archie may also be coming along [5] on the two-week trip as Harry and Meghan continue to carry out the legacy of Princess Diana's humanitarian work [6] in the continent.
