Scheduled to take place in Düsseldorf, Germany, the Invictus Games is a significant event celebrating the resilience and achievements of wounded, injured, and sick service personnel and veterans. While details surrounding Meghan and Harry’s participation have been previously mired in uncertainty, their recently released photograph, shared via Omid Scobie’s official Twitter account, brings confirmation.
The photo captures the Duke and Duchess of Sussex holding up a banner bearing the words “Invictus Games” as they flash smiles for the camera. This cheerful image serves as visual confirmation that the royal couple will indeed be part of the event.

The Invictus Games hold a special place in Prince Harry’s heart, as he founded the event back in 2014. The games provide a platform for wounded veterans to showcase their strength, determination, and sportsmanship. The 2023 edition promises to be a remarkable showcase of resilience and camaraderie.
While Prince Harry is set to attend the Opening Ceremony of the Invictus Games on September 9, Meghan Markle will be joining him a few days later on September 11. The couple will share the experience as they participate together in the Closing Ceremony on September 19.
