Royal birthday for slain Uvalde teacher’s kin

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle paid a surprise visit Saturday to the family of a beloved teacher who was killed in the Uvalde school shooting.

The Sussexes celebrated and joined in the birthday festivities for fourth-grade teacher Irma Garcia’s sister, Claudia Martinez, during their Texas trip.

Garcia died trying to protect her students inside Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on May 24, 2022, when a gunman killed 21 people.

Markle, holding the cake she brought to the house to surprise Claudia Martinez, turned around and called out “my love” Harry to sing “Happy Birthday” along with about a dozen of Garcia’s family members.

Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation helped build a playground in Uvalde in 2022.
