Prince Harry battles to answer simple question most people are asked every day

Prince Harry talks about combat stress and his experience from Afghanistan Prince Harry struggled to answer a seemingly straightforward question most people are asked fairly regularly during his new Netflix documentary series Heart of Invictus. The series, which was executively produced by the Duke, follows the lives of competitors and organisers, as well as Harry himself, during the Invictus Games 2020 in The Hague, Netherlands. However Harry does not do well with small talk, according to body language expert Judi James, as at points he looks to wife Meghan Markle for reassurance. She explained to Express.co.uk how the programme showcases the “many versions” of Harry, although he still seems uncomfortable in the spotlight despite his royal background. While he appears relaxed “trading banter” with his friends, including JJ Chalmers, he is less sure of himself even when answering basic questions.
