Religion information

Prince Harry was born as a British Royal, and this requires him to be a member of the Church of England. Interestingly, Prince Harry is third in succession to hold the title of Supreme Governor of the Church of England, after his father and his older brother. If the Prince was ever to hold this title, he would be required to appoint high-ranking officers of the Church.

However, some people have started a debate about whether Prince Harry is actually religious or not, as he rarely shares any information regarding his religion. Today, the western society, including England, continues to push towards secularization and there is a high possibility that Prince Harry supports that campaign.
