Prince Harry and Meghan named ‘Humanitarians of The Year’ by Project Healthy Minds | USAEMALL.com

Holding hands and looking loved up, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been named Humanitarians of the Year at a glitzy ceremony in New York.

While the gala had a “festive cocktail” theme, the royal couple instead opted to suit up to receive the gong from Project Healthy Minds.

Meghan donned a black, single button suit jacket and pants for the occasion. She bared a daring amount of skin with no shirt visible and set off the ensemble with a chunky gold necklace and a messy ponytail.

Harry also opted for a smart business-style look with black suit and black and white check tie.

The non-profit said the couple were being recognised for their work to make the online world safer for families and young people.

It was also honouring their attempts to improve mental wellbeing via their Archewell Foundation and The Parents Network.

While Meghan and Harry were receiving their accolade, hours earlier on the other side of the Atlantic, Harry’s estranged brother Prince William and King Charles were making a rare joint public appearance in London for a Countdown to COP30 event.

Harry’s memoir Spare, which detailed his life growing up in the spotlight as a young royal, was named by Healthy Minds Project as one of his most significant achievements.

On the non-profit’s website Harry is described as a humanitarian, mental health advocate, environmentalist, and military combat veteran.

In turn, Meghan was described as a mother, wife, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, with her advocacy for women and girls and her ranking on a number of world’s most influential people lists cited.

In a joint statement issued ahead of the gala the couple said: “Working with families and young people to prioritise safety online has been some of the most meaningful work of our lives.”

“As parents ourselves, we have been moved to action by the power of their stories and are honoured to support them.

“We’re proud to be long-time partners of Project Healthy Minds as we work together to shine a light on what remains one of the most pressing issues of our time.”
