Prince Harry seen dancing as he arrives at Invictus Games opening ceremony – live

Prince Harry has spoken of his “sacred obligation” to do everything he can to help military veterans.

In his speech Harry said his ten years of military service, including tours to war torn Afghanistan, had shaped how he wanted to help veterans who had served their countries and returned wounded or suffering mental problems.

He said: “The Games were born more than a decade ago, from a promise I made to myself.

“A promise to uphold my obligation—a sacred obligation after my own decade and privilege of military service —to do whatever I could to help my fellow brothers and sisters heal, and to champion everything we stand for.”

Britain’s longest-serving monarch, the late Queen Elizabeth II, will be honoured by Land Rover for her love of the iconic British motorcar in an exclusive exhibition across the pond.

Americans on the East Coast can catch a glimpse of a number of historic vehicles from the late Queen’s personal fleet and that of the British royal household.

After a successful 2024 tour across the US, one more stop has been marked on the map with royal fans able to check out a specialised collection of Elizabeth II’s own cars at ModaMiami in Florida in March.

The exhibition will showcase a specialised collection of five Series, Defender, and Range Rover models used by the late Queen during her 70-year reign.

The display will feature vehicles used by the Royal family, either in an official capacity or as part of the household fleet.

But one year later, Harry’s life would drastically change when he met Suits star Markle, whom he married in 2018. Whitehall was not invited to the wedding.

The King and Queen have been joined by Victoria and David Beckham, Donatella Versace, Dame Helen Mirren, Edward Enninful and Stanley Tucci for a black tie dinner to celebrate Italian cuisine at Highgrove.

Charles and Camilla invited Italian-American Devil Wears Prada actor and well-known foodie, Tucci, and the Italian ambassador to the UK, Inigo Lambertini, to the Gloucestershire estate on Friday night to enjoy a feast of sustainable ‘slow food’.

Other guests included Tucci’s wife Felicity Blunt – sister of actress Emily Blunt, businessman and TV personality Patrick Grant and chefs Raymond Blanc and Angela Hartnett.

The King and Queen, who was wearing a Fiona Clare dress, were seen chatting to the Beckhams and Dame Helen.

David Beckham told Camilla how much he loved their Cotswolds estate, adding: “It’s beautiful there, so beautiful. We love it. We are very happy there. We’ve got chickens…”

Camilla interjected: “I’ve got chickens too!”

He suggested that his wife was not so keen on gardening but added: “I love it.”

He told the King how proud he was of his role as a King’s Foundation ambassador and thanked him for the opportunity to get involved.

Victoria Beckham admired the work of his students, telling him: “The workmanship and the craftsmanship is phenomenal.”

The King gave a speech at the dinner and said slow food and Italy are “dear to my heart”.

He said he was “especially pleased” the dinner comes just a few weeks before the state visit to Italy, adding: “To say that we are looking forward to it would be to engage in a little British understatement…”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have publicly displayed their relationship with another kiss at an opening event for the Invictus Games.

It is the latest in a long line of royal snogs captured on camera at the event.

Introducing Harry Meghan told the crowd: “It means so much to him. You are his family, just as we are his family, and I hope you recognise how much of his heart he has poured into every single thing that has gotten all of you to this week, which is going to be spectacular.

“I need you to know how much it means to him and how much each of you means to him,” adding that her “sweet children”, Archie and Lilibet, are “cheering [everyone] on from California.”

Prince Harry can rest easy if he feared being one of the thousands of illegal migrants deported by Donald Trump.

The President told the New York Post on Friday: “I don’t want to do that.

“I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife. She’s terrible.”

The US leader has previously described Harry as “whipped” by Meghan Markle in other comments slammed as misogynistic.

“I think poor Harry is being led around by the nose.”
