Meghan Markle’s unplanned speech about Prince Harry at the Invictus Games reception includes a candid family story
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have returned to Canada for the 2025 edition of Harry’s adaptive sports competition for service members and veterans.
Meghan Markle gave a heartfelt introduction to Prince Harry just hours after the couple touched down in Canada for the 2025 Invictus Games.
On Friday, Feb. 7, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, took the stage to give an unscripted speech in Vancouver, Canada, at a welcome reception for athletes and their friends and families.
The Invictus Games has returned for the next chapter in the international sporting event that celebrates wounded, injured and sick service members and veterans. It takes place in Vancouver and Whistler from Feb. 8 until Feb. 16.
In a clip of the opening night shared on X by an attendee, Meghan shared her joy about her return to Canada before honoring her husband, Harry, 40.
“I was not planning on speaking tonight,” Meghan remarked, wearing the A.L.C. “Willow” sleeveless midi dress in chocolate plum. “We just arrived a couple of hours ago, and I touched Canadian soil, and I went, ‘Oh, feels like home.’
