Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to Attend Invictus Games Closing Ceremony in Germany

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have confirmed their attendance at the closing ceremony of this year's Invictus Games for injured service members in Germany.

Despite previous reports suggesting that Meghan would not be accompanying Harry to the UK on the anniversary of the Queen's passing, it has been announced that she will join him later on during the Games.

Omid Scobie, a trusted source close to the Sussexes, shared the news on social media, expressing their delight in attending the Invictus Games 2023 in Dusseldorf next month.

While Harry will be present throughout the event, Meghan will join him later and stay for the closing ceremony before returning to the US.

In the wake of this announcement, a video capturing a moment where Meghan appeared to be ignored by a group from the public during the Invictus Games 2022 in the Netherlands has gone viral on social media.

The incident took place on the first day of the Games, as the Sussexes attended the Jaguar Land Rover Driving Challenge at Zweeder Park.

Meghan, dressed in a black tweed jacket with gold buttons by Celine and casual jeans, enthusiastically cheered on Harry from the sidelines.

However, despite her animated conversation and gestures, it seemed that no one engaged with her.

Lady C, a prominent figure in royal circles, has speculated that Meghan's decision to attend the Invictus Games in Germany is due to the state of her marriage.

According to Lady C, there are numerous unresolved issues and financial matters that need attention.

It is believed that both Harry and Meghan are keen to present a united front, with Meghan's presence at the Games serving as a valuable photo opportunity for Netflix.

Regardless of her marital status, the streaming giant is expected to benefit from the attention generated by Meghan's appearance.

Criticism surrounding Meghan's involvement in the Invictus Games has also emerged.

The Royal News Network on X published a scathing article, accusing Meghan and Harry of lacking the qualities that the competition represents – honor, sacrifice, respect, and service.

The article highlights instances where Meghan allegedly prioritized personal interests over military memorial services and openly mocked the royal family.

Additionally, it criticizes her extravagant spending on designer clothes, which surpasses the annual salaries of many military families.

The author argues that Meghan's presence overshadows the true purpose of the Games and suggests that the event should reconsider its association with Harry or consider banning Meghan altogether.

The Invictus Games, originally championed by Prince Harry, have become a platform for Meghan and Harry's self-promotion, according to the article.

The author questions the couple's contribution to the event and asserts that their focus on themselves and their relationship detracts from the recognition and support that should be given to the veterans.

The author concludes by suggesting that the Invictus Games must make a decision regarding Harry's role as patron or take measures to limit Meghan's involvement, as her presence is seen as diverting attention away from the soldiers and toward herself.

As Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare to attend the Invictus Games closing ceremony in Germany, their presence continues to generate both excitement and controversy.

While supporters eagerly anticipate their appearance, critics argue that their involvement may overshadow the true purpose of the event.

As the Games approach, all eyes will be on the Sussexes, awaiting their impact on this prestigious competition for injured service members.
