Prince Harry was only 12 years of age when he lost his mom in a car crash in Paris. She was 36 years old. Now, at 30, Harry reveals he still has that 'gaping hole' in his heart. 'I knew there would always be a gaping hole that could never be filled', Prince Harry said.

Harry has continued the legacy of his mother by getting heavily involved in charity work. He spoke during the opening of the Mamohato Children's Centre in Lesotho, Africa, about how much he can sympathize with the orphans in terms of losing a parent or parents.

The royalty's charity Sentebale has helped build the facility that can be used by orphans. The said building has a dining room named after Princess Diana. The center supports children who lost their parents to AIDS. The late princess, when she was alive, exerted much effort to minimize the early stigma surrounding HIV and AIDS.

'The children at the center were far younger than me, and of course, their situation was a great deal more challenging than my own. Nonetheless, we shared a similar feeling of loss, having a loved one - in my case a parent - snatched away so suddenly', Harry said.

In October of this year, Harry talked about the importance of doing what he has been doing. 'It's equally important, if not more so, to do the stuff behind the scenes,' he said. 'It's something that our mother did a lot. And that's the time you really get to learn. You get the experiences and you actually get the honest truth out of people', he added.

Harry has been more focused in doing humanitarian work since he left the army. His passion project, the Invictus Games, for instance, helps wounded warriors. '[I] suddenly realized, I can now be the perfect spokesperson for these guys', Harry shared. 'I know what they've been through', he added.
