Prince Harry Joins Coldplay on Stage For a Cause Close to His Heart

Jun 29 2016 - 7:30am

After spending the day with Joss Stone [1] and a children's choir from South Africa, Prince Harry hosted the "Right to Be Wrong" singer and Coldplay at Kensington Palace for a special concert on Tuesday. At the event — which was held by Harry's Sentebale charity to raise HIV awareness — the prince took the stage and touched on the epidemic [2], saying, "HIV has drifted from the headlines, but remains an urgent challenge. Every single one of us has a responsibility to educate ourselves — to speak out. When a people come together for a purpose, we can achieve extraordinary things." Noticeably missing were Kate Middleton and Prince William, though Harry was joined by the charity's cofounding patron, Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, and a few other royals.

2016 is already shaping up to be a big year for Harry [3]. In addition to his philanthropic efforts [4], the prince has been killing it with a bevy of swoon-worthy appearances [5] and his cute antics [6]. In July, he is set to travel to Durban, South Africa [7], for the International AIDS Conference. See what else is in store for him in the months to come [8].
