Prince Harry has broken cover for the first time in weeks to address a group of NATO officials.

The Duke of Sussex attended a meeting of the NATO military committee via video link on October 31 speaking about his role in the involvement of the Invictus Games, a charity supporting wounded, injured and sick service members and veterans.

And although his wife, Meghan Markle did not attend the meeting, eagle-eyed fans noticed a photo in the background of the smartly dressed duke which showed him and his wife on their wedding day back in May 2018.

The photo shows Harry in military uniform and Meghan in her wedding dress during the carriage procession around London following their nuptials.

Harry’s nod to Meghan comes amid the royal duo making increasingly separate public appearances, with speculation they are both working on a new PR strategy with their team.

Although Harry himself did not physically attend the meeting in New York, a delegation from the Invictus Games group was sent, and the meeting comes a year after Harry’s 2023 Invictus Games documentary ‘Heart of Invictus’ aired on Netflix

Harry addressed the attendees: “I believe the work of the Invictus Games Foundation to be very important – and it strikes at the heart of our shared values as military personnel.”

In February 2024, Harry and Meghan met competitors at the Whistler Blackcomb ski resort ahead of the 2025 games for the ‘One Year to Go’ event.

Around 550 competitors from up to 25 nations will take part in the Winter Invictus Games 2025 including sitting volleyball, swimming and wheelchair basketball. Winter sports such as alpine skiing, snowboarding, and wheelchair curling will also be part of the competition for the first time.

According to a source, Express.co.uk reports the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are making arrangements for their children to attend the opening ceremony at BC Place Vancouver in February.

“Harry and Meghan are planning to take Archie and Lilibet to help promote a new ‘family-friendly’ Invictus Games,” the source said.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s new approach to promoting their projects separately is down to the fact that their Sussex brand has become “toxic” through the years, one PR expert has claimed.

Harry visited New York, London and Southern Africa to promote his own causes, while Meghan was seen attending events including supporting the LA Children’s Hospital Gala.

PR expert Ed Coram James claimed that the Sussex couple’s brands are stronger as individuals rather than as a couple after their joint ventures turned out to be “toxic and thus commercially untenable”.

He told GB News: “Since their marriage, Harry and Meghan have had a distinct brand. That brand is based on a duo.

“Call it ‘Harry and Meghan’, call it ‘the Sussexes’, call it whatever you like. The fact is that for years they have become synonymous with one another.”

He added: “And, since the famous Oprah interview, in which they took a simmering disagreement between themselves and the rest of the Royal Family and essentially declared all-out-war, that brand has been steadily becoming more toxic and thus commercially untenable to the point where not that many major brands are going to be rushing to write them a large cheque based on their brand value…”
