Now, Prince Harry and Ed Sheeran are going viral for the video that was shared on the official Sussex Royal Instagram page where there are 9.6 million followers.
The video has more than 2 million plays, over 400,000 likes and more than 9,000 comments. Sussex Royal included the following caption with the video.
“It’s World Mental Health Day! Both Prince Harry and Ed Sheeran want to ensure that not just today but every day, you look after yourself, your friends and those around you. There’s no need to suffer in silence – share how you’re feeling, ask how someone is doing and listen for the answer. Be willing to ask for help when you need it and know that we are all in this together. #WMHD.”
With a comedic flair, Ed Sheeran explains to viewers that he is excited about joining Prince Harry for a charity campaign. After he gets ready he arrives at Princess Eugenie’s Ivy Cottage located at Kensington Palace where Prince Harry welcomes him. There is miscommunication as Ed thinks they are championing a charity for other gingers, but Prince Harry corrects him and lets him know they are there to raise awareness for World Mental Health Day.
