The royal sent an encouraging clip to children who have experienced the death of a parent who served in the British Armed Forces.
Prince Harry transformed into an iconic superhero to send a message of comfort to bereaved military children.
The royal wears the full red-and-blue costume for the bulk of the clip, which played at the beginning of the Heroes and Villains themed bash last night. While wearing the mask, he tells the kids that they will have to stop five villains from "ruining Christmas," before offering solace to the children who are missing their loved ones.
"You are allowed to have the best time ever, especially with this Scotty’s Little Soldiers community. Go out there, have the best time, and Merry Christmas," he concluded, as he lifted the mask to reveal his face.The royal has a long-standing relationship with the charity, and previously recorded a video message for their 2019 Christmas party, in which he dressed as Santa Claus.
"It’s cool that someone who’s been through the same experience as us is thinking about us," said 12-year-old Scotty member Emily Reynolds, who lost her father, Sergeant Antony Reynolds, in 2018. "He’s not just someone who’s trying to be sympathetic, he actually knows what it’s like to grow up without your parent. My friends think it’s really cool that I get letters and messages from Prince Harry.
