Speaking via a virtual chat, Glenn said: "It was a shocking moment, ‘cause my career had really separated me from my family, and we didn’t have access to iPhones the way we do now. It was telephone or letters, right?

"And we did not pick up the phone a lot, so we were visiting my parents, and Jessie came up to me and said, 'I need help because I can’t stop thinking about killing myself.' And I had no clue that she was dealing with that."
Addressing about how Glenn's family had bonded together to help Jessie, Prince Harry said: "It is incredibly powerful to hear you speak like this and to see behind closed doors the realities of a family struggling but thriving from it because of that conversation, because of that family connection. That's the overwhelming positive from it.

On a previous episode, Harry opened up about the relationship between him and his father, Prince Charles, saying: "My father used to say to me when I was younger, he used to say to William and I, 'Well, it was like that for me, so it's gonna be like that for you.' That doesn't make sense.
"Just because you suffered, it doesn't mean that your kids have to suffer. In fact, quite the opposite. If you suffered, do everything you can to make sure that whatever experiences, negative experiences that you had, you can make it right for your kids."
