Harry and Meghan's Road to Romance: See How Their Lives Intertwined, Side by Side

As Harry increasingly found himself in the headlines for his teenage partying, he left school at the age of 18 and headed off for the first part of his gap year, working as a farmhand in Queensland, Australia. In 2002, he was dealing with an especially difficult year due to the loss of his great-grandmother the Queen Mother, his Great Aunt Princess Margaret, and his close school friend Henry van Straubenzee, who passed away in a car accident.

Years later, one of Harry's closest friends is Henry's older brother Thomas, and he is also patron of the Henry van Straubenzee Memorial Fund.
