I am a long-time Royal Forums reader (5+ years!) but this is my first post. I have to say, I'm horrified by this Invictus Markle show. That appears to be what the Invictus Games, which is a worthy cause, has become. Now this tubing video? What about the veterans who are competing?[.....]hopefully the rest of this event will be focused on the athletes who are competing. I was happy for both of the Sussexes when they married, and was so thrilled that Harry found love after everything he'e been through, but both have left me not only disappointed by appalled. It's a shame all around.
Apart from Wimbledon, the World Cup, the Euros and the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, the BBC and ITV don't show much sport during the daytime on weekdays. Diamond League athletics gets shoved on the "on demand" red button. Most sports coverage is now on Sky Sports and TNT/Eurosport. I don't know whether or not someone from the Invictus Games approached them about the TV rights, but they don't seem to be doing a very good job with publicity.
An amazing coincidence that a Backgrid photographer just happened to be around at that exact time to picture Meghan as she came off her eco-friendly private jet in Santa Barbara.The Duke of Sussex on day 4 (and the Duchess of Sussex was photographed departing):

Absolutely. They're far too much in the background.
Any sponsors will want their name to be out there, and it is not happening, that could have an impact for further games.
I'm here in the US. To my knowledge, I do not think the Warrior Games are shown on regular TV.

Just saw a story on the news here - some Invictus athletes from Nigeria were apparently refused entry to Canada. The Nigerians are understandably angry, saying Canada can 'go to hell'.
‘Canada... they can go to hell’: Why Nigeria is angry with Canada
A Nigerian security advisor says Canada can 'go to hell' after visas were denied for members of his country’s Invictus Games delegation, as well as the highest-ranking military official, local media report.
No word yet as to why the visas were refused. Very unfortunate, all round.

I wonder if only aim to post this short video with not so visible children was to " steal" public attention from HArry still involved in Invictus GAmes.... Or perhaps to simply be in media because of her upcoming culinary show.... Or perhaps both....Here are some photos of day 7:

Prince Harry all smiles despite Meghan being 1,000 miles away
The Duke of Sussex had to put his finger to his lips to signal to noisy Nigerian supporters that they had to be quiet at the swimming event of the veterans games.
And an article about the video the Duchess of Sussex has shared:
Meghan Markle shares video of children making love heart cakes
Meghan Markle has posted more love-themed content on social media just hours after a gushing post saying she was 'missing her Valentine' Prince Harry who was 1,000 miles away.
Your sentiments are shared by many in the TRF community. There was a lot of enthusiasm and support for Harry & Meghan when they first married. It is a pity that they have made the choices that they have. It is especially sad to see the Invictus Games, which could become Harry's proudest achievement, be milked for pointless PR for H&M.Hello!
I am sure there may be a strong element of truth in this. There is a show to promote, jam to sell. And Meghan always seems to like to make announcements when attention is diverted away from her, in this case by Harry at Invictus.
