LIKE MOTHER, LIKE SON: Prince Harry follows in the footsteps of his mom, the late Princess Diana, visiting Angola to put a spotlight on de-mining.
Prince Harry followed in the footsteps of his mom, the late Princess Diana, Friday, visiting the southern African nation of Angola to put a spotlight on de-mining.
Harry poignantly walked down the street Friday with no protective gear and looked at the schools, businesses and homes that now fill the busy area. Angola is still home to hundreds of thousands of landmines, according to Halo Trust, the U.K. charity that hosted both Diana and Harry in Angola and is working with the Angolan government to make the country landmine free by 2025.

We wanna see the prince."
