Prince Harry reminisces about his favourite Invictus Games moment, highlighting wheelchair rugby and basketball, while discussing his evening plans with financier Guy Monson.
Buckingham Palace has announced a joint engagement between the King and Prince William next week after it emerged Charles will not see his other son Harry during the Duke's UK visit.
'In August 2023, following His Majesty's Accession, The King was pleased to announce military appointments including that The Prince of Wales would become Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps.Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex arrived in the UK alone today after flying in from California for a ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games in London tomorrow.
Prince Harry, patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, on stage during a discussion titled 'Realising a Global Community' at the Honourable Artillery Company in London this afternoon Royal expert Michael Cole agreed. He said: 'It is quite a snub. For the King to not see his younger son, Prince Harry, although the two men will be only two miles apart tomorrow afternoon, gives an indication of the depth of the divide.
'There can be no mistake: this is a royal flea in the ear for the fifth in line to the throne. Actions have consequences but rarely are they played out as starkly as they are here. Monson, chief investment officer of Sarasin and Partners, a London-based £18billion investment fund, was alongside the warring brothers when they unveiled a statue of their mother Princess Diana in 2021 at Kensington Palace. It was Harry and William's last solo engagement together.
Monson is a trustee of the Invictus Games Foundation, founded by Harry, and was on the organising committee for its inaugural games. The Duke revealed he was having dinner with him while sharing an anecdote about the event in 2014.Educated at the University of Oxford - where he studied a Master's degree in PPE - Mr Monson is chief investment officer of £18billion investment fund Sarasin and Partners.
But Harry arrived in London by himself today, and is expected to join the Duchess on a tour to Nigeria later this week with Meghan set to fly there from the US by herself. Among the royals who could attend include his cousins Zara Tindall and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, but there has been no confirmation of this. Harry is expected to stay at a hotel in London because he no longer has Frogmore Cottage in Windsor.
Organisers said after 2020, Invictus will be staged every two years, but The Hague Games planned for that year was delayed by the pandemic until 2022, followed by Dusseldorf 2023, while Vancouver Whistler is planned for 2025. Although Charles has been left wounded by his son's behaviour in recent years, he has always privately insisted he will keep the door open for him to at least speak.
It is also the first major event he has attended in Britain for some time and comes amid his ongoing a legal case about his personal security arrangements whenever he is in the UK.Experts say that while he may meet his father the King, he will unlikely meet up with Kate or Prince William.
He met Harry in Germany last September at the Invictus Games Düsseldorf in Germany, which was also attended by the Duchess.
