In the third episode of Netflix’s documentary series ‘Harry & Meghan‘, Harry called it “one of the biggest mistakes in my life.” The Prince was 20 years old at that time when he arrived at a party in London that had more than 250 guests.
“It was probably one of the biggest mistakes in my life. I felt so ashamed afterwards,” the prince said. Harry wore a nazi soldier uniform with a red armband consisting of a big swastika symbol.
