The Duke of Sussex spoke openly about Archie's hopes for the future, revealing that the youngster wants to follow in his footsteps. "To be role models, or the role models, that each of you are takes strength and it takes courage," he told the assembled crowd. "When I talk to my son Archie about what he wants to be when he grows up, some days it's an astronaut, other days it's a pilot – a helicopter pilot obviously."

But the Duke did reveal that he had shared some words of wisdom with his young son, explaining: "But what I remind him is that no matter what you want to be when you grow up, it's your character that matters most, and nothing would make his mum and me prouder than to see him have the character of what we see before us today."
