    Prince Harry made his first public appearance since giving a bombshell interview to the BBC.

    The Duke of Sussex attended ServiceNow’s Knowledge 2025 conference in Las Vegas on Tuesday in a show of support for the Diana Award, the charity founded in honor of his late mother, Princess Diana.

    Harry, 40, discussed the importance of youth leadership during a panel with Diana Award CEO Dr. Tessy Ojo as well as two Diana Legacy Award winners, Sikander “Sonny” Khan and Christina Williams.

    “Through the Diana Award, I’ve had the privilege of meeting young people who have turned adversity into action. That’s not just inspiring — it’s the kind of untapped potential we can’t afford to overlook,” the renegade royal said during the sit-down.

    “Far too many young people are locked out of leadership pipelines because we’ve failed to build truly inclusive and accessible pathways.”

    Harry commended the younger generation for leading without waiting for permission to do so.

    “They bring emotional intelligence, social awareness and an honesty about mental health that previous generations struggled to express,” he continued. “What sets them apart isn’t just their boldness but their refusal to settle for the status quo.”

    Harry’s appearance marked the launch of his foundation’s “Pledge to Invest” initiative, a movement intended to inspire businesses to invest in the next generation.

    The organization, founded in 1999 and inspired by Diana’s belief in the power of youth, is one of the only charities that both Harry and his estranged brother, Prince William, continue to support since the former resigned from his royal duties in 2020.

    After his exit and move to California with wife Meghan Markle and their two kids, Harry entered into a legal battle with the UK arguing for state-funded security during his visits across the pond.

    Last week, the “Spare” author took a crushing blow when a British judge dismissed his legal appeal, prompting him to pour out his heart in a revealing interview with the BBC on Friday.

    “I can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point,” he said of traveling to his native country without security protecting the Duchess of Sussex, 43, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 3.

    “[What] they’re going to miss is, well, everything,” he added. “I love my country. I always have done, despite what some people in that country have done.”

    Harry went on to say that he “of course” misses London and thinks it is “quite sad” he cannot show his family where he grew up.

    The prince also said during the sit-down that he is desperate to reconcile with William, 42, and their father, King Charles III, with whom he has been on the outs since quitting his responsibilities.
