Prince Harry, who became the father of a «very healthy boy» on Monday, has transformed himself from an angry young man into one of the British royal family’s greatest assets.
The younger son of the heir to the throne Prince Charles and the late Diana, princess of Wales, Harry, now 34, struggled with his role and for much of his youth seemed to want nothing more than to escape.
But now, for all his wild child ways, he seems ready to enjoy the settled, stable family life he always craved, with his wife Meghan, the new baby and a new home.
«Mother and baby are doing incredibly well. It’s been the most amazing experience I can ever possibly imagine,» a beaming Harry announced in a statement to television cameras.

The Duke of Sussex, who spent 10 years in the British army, serving two tours of duty in Afghanistan, hit the headlines for his partying and his outspoken criticism of the media.
The prince rebuilt his reputation through his charity work with veterans, advocacy on mental health and by taking on more duties from his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II.
He appears to have inherited his late mother’s ability to connect with people — as well as her sense of mischief — and, with Meghan, his brother Prince William and sister-in-law Kate, has helped put a fresh face on the monarchy.
Harry, now sixth in line to the throne, has said that Diana is always in his thoughts, and has championed many of her charitable causes, including taking an HIV test to raise awareness.
