Prince Harry is stepping out solo in New York City. On Thursday, July 16, the Duke of Sussex made a surprise appearance at the inaugural TIME100 Sports Gala after being honored as one of the publication’s 100 Most Influential People in Sports 2026 for his work with the Invictus Games. The 41-year-old posed for pictures on the red carpet before heading inside where he was spotted mingling with various sports stars including Olympians Lindsey Vonn, Madison Chock, and Alysia Liu as well as NBA Champion Jalen Brunson and USMNT’s Folarin Balogun. Plus, at one point in the evening, Harry even took the stage to deliver a toast. The royal’s outing comes just days after he, wife Meghan Markle, and their kids, Archie and Lilibet, returned from a trip to the UK during which the family of four reunited in a private meeting with father King Charles and Queen Camilla — their first time across the pond all together since 2022.
