One day before sharing the tragic news, Harry alluded to his loss with a cryptic Instagram Story post featuring a broken heart emoji and a dove emoji, set against a simple black background.
In 2021, the Too Hot to Handle star opened up about his turbulent relationship with his father.
“I love my dad and I know he’s trying to be better,” he said on the Almost Adulting Podcast at the time, “but I just grew up with him being [a] crazy, crazy alcoholic.”
Despite their ups and downs, Harry noted his dad’s “many really, really good characteristics,” adding that he still had a soft spot for his father.
“Regardless of anything,” he said, “that’s my old man, and I still love him.”
