Harry's Kids Name Elephants After Royal Donation
17 Aug
Summary
- Prince Harry's portion of Diana Fund now supports wildlife conservation.
- Two elephants in Botswana named Archie and Lilibet by EWB.
- Children chose collar colors, a blue for Archie, purple for Lilibet.
Prince Harry has continued his late mother's legacy through a substantial donation to Elephants Without Borders, a conservation charity. This contribution comes from his allocated portion of the Diana Memorial Fund, which was established in Princess Diana's memory.
Following a split from the Sentebale charity in early 2026, Prince Harry redirected his funds to Elephants Without Borders, a group with which he and Meghan Markle have long-standing ties. The charity's founder, Dr. Mike Chase, expressed deep gratitude for the Duke's support, highlighting his strong connection to Botswana's wildlife.
In a touching tribute, two elephants in the Okavango Delta have been named Archie and Lili after Harry and Meghan's children. These "magnificent" elephants were fitted with satellite-tracking collars, funded by Harry's donation. Prince Archie chose a blue collar, while Princess Lilibet selected purple, enabling real-time monitoring across northern Botswana.
This initiative further connects Harry's children to their late grandmother, Princess Diana. Earlier, the family visited Diana's childhood home and burial site at Althorp. Harry also shared that the family celebrates Diana's memory by baking lemon drizzle cake, a tradition he cherishes.
