Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were seen hugging and comforting young cancer patients and their families during an emotional outing in Jordan.<\/p>\n
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the King Hussein Cancer Centre. And Meghan rushed to console a distressed mother from Gaza, holding her hands and consoling her as the mother spoke about her son\u2019s fight with leukaemia. <\/p>\n
The duchess met Huda Ramadan Alrhawjara and hugged her as she explained that her son, Mohammed, had suffered a recurrence of leukaemia during the conflict between Hamas and Israel in Gaza.<\/p>\n
Ms Alrhawjara told Meghan: \u201cIt doesn’t matter if it takes four years, what matters is to have him healthy.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The mother and son were part of a group of young Palestinians from Gaza being treated at the centre.<\/p>\n
She later said: \u201c’I’m really happy that the prince and his wife are really on the side of the families, and that they came to hear our stories, it shows their humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Sussexes met young patients in a play area designed to put the children at ease during the treatment. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Harry formed a friendship with Sham, a teenager from Syria, who was awaiting chemotherapy for leukaemia later that day.<\/p>\n
She went on to perform a short piano piece for the royal couple, and both hugged Sham before moving on. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After meeting Meghan and Harry, she said: \u201cHe’s really nice, I’ve heard about him, but I never thought I would meet him.\u201d<\/p>\n
The visit was the last engagement of a two-day tour of Jordan, which the British Government has sought to distance itself from after revelations that the couple attended an event at the British Ambassador\u2019s residence in Amman.<\/p>\n
Officials at the Foreign Office have refused to provide any comment regarding the two-day Middle Eastern trip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Sources familiar with the visit have clarified that Ambassador Phillip Hall did not extend a direct invitation to Harry and Meghan for the Iftar reception, which marks the evening meal breaking the Ramadan fast.<\/p>\n
It is understood the invitation to the Ambassador’s reception had actually been extended to Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the World Health Organization’s Director-General, who subsequently brought the duke and duchess along as his personal guests.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A source with knowledge of the arrangements has maintained that the British Government played no role in organising or supporting the Sussexes’ trip, emphasising their status as “private citizens”.<\/p>\n
One royal insider described the couple’s appearance at the diplomatic reception as an “intriguing” element of their Jordan visit.<\/p>\n
The source noted: “Once again, British diplomats are involved.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
