"You've got to have fun in life. Otherwise, wow - imagine life without fun."
~ Prince Harry
A prominent member of the British royal family, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex is the younger son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales, which makes him sixth in the line of succession to the British throne.
Prince Harry is tall, not as tall as his brother Prince William but still tall enough to stand out in a crowd -- British or otherwise. The brothers' height comes from their mother Prince Diana who was very tall at 5-feet-10 inches.
Anyway, but how tall is Prince Harry really? In an interview, he mentions his height as 6-feet-2 inches. But from our own observation, he is around an inch and a half shorter than Prince William, who is always described as 6-feet-3 inches.
From what we have seen of him, Prince William is really close to 6'3", which makes Prince Harry around 6'1½" tall -- which matches our own impression of his height.
Prince Harry's sister-in-law Kate Middleton is tall as well at 5-feet-9 inches, though his wife Meghan Markle is a bit shorter at 5-feet-5 inches.
Though Meghan Markle still would have been taller than Queen Elizabeth in her prime, who was 5-feet-4 inches tall though she has lost a lot of height due to age and the general wear and tear that comes with it.
The height of Prince Harry is
6'1½" or 186.5 cm
