Moment Prince Harry lifts David Jarvis’ daughter over barrier
Prince Harry touchingly came to the assistance of a four-year-old girl who wanted to congratulate her dad on winning a gold medal at the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf, with the moment being captured on a clip posted on X, formerly Twitter.
David Jarvis from Team UK won gold in the cycling time trials and following his victory Harry is seen lifting his young daughter Sophia over the barrier, where she instantly runs into her father’s arms.

The gold medals were later given out by Harry’s wife Meghan Markle on the penultimate day of the Games in Germany, with the royal couple a great success with competitors and spectators alike.
The Sussexes have been seen in the stands getting involved with all the sports, posing for pictures and laughing and dancing along in the crowd.
