Prince Harry and Barack Obama Sits Down For A Radio Interview About The Future
Kensington Palace has recently revealed that their newly engaged monarch, Prince Harry, has interviewed former U.S. president Barack Obama for BBC Radio 4's "Today" program. A teaser was also released to reveal some details on how Prince Harry and Obama interacted during the interview.
The preview for the interview was released through the social media account of Kensington Palace. In the video, Prince Harry was explaining the editorial process to Obama, who promptly asked if he should respond to all the questions in a British accent. Obama then warned Prince Harry that he takes a while to answer questions to which the monarch responded that if he took too long to answer, he might display a stern face, which he proceeded to demonstrate to the former president.
Kensington Palace further revealed that the interview will be about the leaders' shared interest in a platform that would help cultivate young leaders all over the globe. Further reports also revealed that Prince Harry will be asking Obama about his memories of the day he left office, his post-presidential activities, and his hopes for the future. It was later revealed that the interview was conducted in September, during the Invictus Games that was held in Toronto. The event was founded by Prince Harry to honor military personnel who were injured in their service.
