Prince Harry Finally Got to Introduce Meghan Markle to His 98-Year-Old Friend, Daphne

Prince Harry has a huge fan in Sydney, Australia, and her name's Daphne Dunne. The 98-year-old war widow has had the opportunity to meet the famous royal three times over the past few years, and it's clear they share a special bond. Back in 2015, Daphne stole a kiss from Harry when they first met, then pulled the same adorable trick when they reunited two years later [1]. Fast-forward to 2018, when Harry spotted his friend in the crowd during his royal tour [2] and made a point to introduce her to his wife, Meghan Markle [3].

Harry rushed over to give Daphne a hug, as she sat adorned with her late husband's war medals. She congratulated Harry and Meghan on the "good news" she'd heard in the morning, i.e. the couple's exciting pregnancy announcement [4], and told Meghan, "That's just what Harry needs." "What an exciting time," Meghan replied. "Hopefully next time we see you, we'll have a little one with us," she added later.

Watch a video of their full interaction above, including Harry's heartwarming comments about Daphne's shoes and pink hair, and keep reading for more snaps from their sweet reunion.
