Stephen Fry Knighted by King Charles for Advocacy and Cultural Contributions

The actor and broadcaster was honored at Windsor Castle for his work in mental health awareness, environmental conservation, and charity efforts.

Stephen Fry, 67, was knighted by King Charles on March 25, 2025, in recognition of his decades-long contributions to mental health awareness, environmental conservation, and charitable work.
The ceremony at Windsor Castle was attended by Fry's family, including his mother, Marianne, who expressed pride in his achievement.
Fry, who has been open about his struggles with bipolar disorder, praised organizations like Mind for their efforts to reduce stigma and improve mental health support.
In addition to his advocacy, Fry's career spans acting, writing, and broadcasting, with notable roles in 'Blackadder,' 'Wilde,' and 'A Bit of Fry & Laurie.'
Fry humorously remarked on the honor, saying he was 'chuffed to the heavens' and joked about being made a duke to further his charity work.
