BRAVE WALKS: Prince Harry follows in Princess Dian...

PRINCE Harry follows in his mother Princess Diana’s footsteps as he walks among landmines in Africa.

The duke, who sent his team last week to reconcile with the King but not William, arrived in Angola today, July 16.

He was pictured walking among landmines with with charity Halo Trust 28 years after his mother did the same.

Harry’s solo adventure saw the duke land at Luanda airport and there proceed to take a series of small two-person planes to the site of the mines.

The Duke of Sussex hopes the publicity from the daring stunt will encourage the Angolan government to make more donations to Halo.

Harry came on board as the patron of Halo in 2019 with the government of Angola pledging £46 million to create wildlife corridors through the minefields.

A clearing target of removing all landmines by 2025 was set with the duke hoping his presence will boost efforts to meet the target.

Angola is in southwestern country in Africa, along the Atlantic coast.

It was suffered a brutal 27-year civil war and is still grappling with fields of landmines laid across the countryside.

Millions of the deadly bombs are said to be buried across the countryside.

Halo, with whom Princess Diana worked closely, has cleared more than 123,000 mines since 1994.

The charity works to transform warzones into fertile farmland and safe villages.

Iconic images of Harry’s mother, the late Princess Diana, show her walking across a minefield in blast proof protective gear in 1997.

Harry recreated the shot once before in 2010, walking through a minefield in protective gear alongside a charity worker.

Meghan Markle is unlikely to recreate the shot alongside the duke with sources reportedly saying that Harry hopes to keep his work with Halo close to his chest.

The daring stunt is thought to be an attempt to draw attention away from the duke’s ongoing feud with his family.

Harry’s minefield walk drew significant attention with headlines across the globe focusing on the stunt.

It is the latest in a series of trips made by the Duke of Sussex to the African country.

He previously visited in 2019, when he became patron of Halo, and in 2024 where he joined Angola’s foreign minister at a United Nations Halo event in New York.

Harry has also visited the country’s remote Dirico region, touring a newly cleared minefield and detonating a landmine,

The duke then went on to spend a night camping by the Cuito River.

He also visited the town’s Princess Diana Orthopaedic Centre, met female deminers, and toured a demining camp.

It is thought the duke plans to give a speech today but Halo, with Harry’s blessing, has banned any British press from attending.

The duke’s visit comes just days after senior aides to the King and Harry were photographed at a secret meeting, prompting rumours of a possible reconciliation.

The Sun previously told how a reconciliation with Harry’s brother William is far less likely after The Prince of Wales’ aides were snubbed from the summit between Harry and his father.

Harry is said to have “given his blessing” for the talks involving two of his team plus the King and Queen’s director of communications.

They spoke about potential ways to end their family conflict, though a proposal for Harry to make a royal return was not on the agenda.

The King and Queen’s director of communications Tobyn Andreae was seen with Meredith Maines, chief communications officer for Harry’s charity Archewell, and its UK and Europe communications manager Liam Maguire.

They met on the balcony of the members-only Royal Over-Seas League club a short walk from Buckingham Palace before continuing inside.

Buckingham Palace had also ­supported the proposals to “open a channel of communication” — having agreed to them within the past two weeks, it has been claimed.

There was no contact between Harry’s team and one working for William and Kate — or any invitation for face-to-face meetings.
