Prince Harry’s (Truly) Sweet Moment with Wildfire Evacuee

On Saturday, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle traveled to Pasadena to join in wildfire relief efforts helmed by their friend José Andrés and his organization,

World Central Kitchen. While they toured the Pasadena City Center,

they met with the city’s mayor Victor Gordo and spoke with people seeking shelter in the evacuation site.

Later, Gordo told the Pasadena Star-News about one specific interaction, where Harry went above and beyond to help.

According to the mayor, Harry approached a bedridden elderly man and asked if he wanted anything from the food carts they had on hand. “The gentleman said, ‘What I’d really like is a donut,’” Gordo said. “[Harry] says, ‘There’s no donut here, but I will find one.’ He takes off, and 10 minutes later, he returns with a donut. The gentleman looks up and says, ‘I guess I need my carbs and my sugar.’ That gentleman tonight is at the convention center and does not know it was Prince Harry who brought him that donut.”

The man apparently was not familiar with the son of King Charles III and Princess Diana, but he did see that Harry has the political touch. “If you ever run for anything, I’ll vote for you,” the man told Harry, according to Gordo.

Though Harry and Meghan’s Santa Barbara home has not been affected by the fires so far, a source told Vanity Fair last week that the couple has opened their home to friends who had to evacuate and have made donations to charities, including World Central Kitchen, through their Archewell Foundation. All eight episodes of Archewell Productions’ new lifestyle Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, were originally set to air on Wednesday but were postponed to March 4 due to the fires.

Meghan explained the delay in a statement to Netflix’s Tudum site. “I’m thankful to my partners at Netflix for supporting me in delaying the launch, as we focus on the needs of those impacted by the wildfires in my home state of California,” it read.
