Prince Harry describes his current profession as "full-time father"

Prince Harry (41) gave a remarkable answer when asked about his profession on the podcast "Joe Marler Will See You Now". "Full-time father. British Army veteran. Prince of England. Duke", he listed to former English rugby international Joe Marler (36). For the remainder of the conversation, he ultimately settled on the simple form of address "Duke".

The self-description as "Prince of England" was apparently not meant seriously. Harry responded in the deliberately casual setting with a wink and asked the hosts in return what title they wanted to hear. Earlier, Marler had asked him to state his full name including titles. Harry has been living in Montecito, California, with his wife Meghan and their children Archie and Lilibet since stepping back from his royal duties in 2020. The couple retained their titles as Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Founder, Not Inventor

At one point, Harry corrected his host. When Marler wanted to introduce him as the "inventor" of the Invictus Games, the Duke of Sussex clarified that he was merely the founder of the sports tournament for wounded and ill military personnel. He had launched the Games in 2014, inspired by the Warrior Games in the USA. There he had seen how much sport can help injured soldiers physically and mentally.

The Invictus Games were also one of the occasions for Harry's recent trip to Great Britain: In Birmingham, he attended events for the one-year countdown to the 2027 edition.

His Friend JJ Chalmers Was at the Table

Harry was accompanied on the podcast by his friend JJ Chalmers (39). The former Royal Marine had been severely injured in a bomb attack in Afghanistan in 2011 and later won gold at the Invictus Games. Harry took the joking question about whether the two were doing couples therapy with humor.

The Duke showed quick decision-making in a thought experiment: If he could step into the life of another famous Harry for a day, his choice would be English soccer star Harry Kane. But only on a day when his team wins. Harry also believed the English have a good chance at the World Cup.
