Prince Harry recalls his broken toe as he visited the South Pole for his birthday.
The Duke of Sussex shares how a heavy chair fell on his foot a few days before his trip, leading to the injury.
He writes in memoir ‘Spare’: “We got back onto the plane, flew to the starting point of the trek. As we began walking, at last, I remembered: Oh, yeah, my toe’s broken. Just recently, in fact. A boys’ weekend in Norfolk. We drank and smoked and partied till dawn, and then, while trying to reassemble one of the rooms we’d rearranged, I dropped a heavy chair with brass wheels onto my foot.”
Harry, however, shrugged away his pain to begin his trekking trip.
“Silly injury. But debilitating. I could barely walk. No matter, I was determined not to let the team down,” he noted.
