In an announcement from Archewell, the post-royal organization founded by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, it was revealed that Meghan would indeed be accompanying her husband to Germany. This news was further disseminated by Meghan's friend and royal biographer, Omid Scobie, who shared a photo of the couple on his official Twitter account. In his tweet, Scobie confirmed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were "delighted to be attending" the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf next month.
This revelation came shortly after Buckingham Palace had disclosed details of King Charles and Queen Camilla's forthcoming visit to France. Meghan's presence at the event was confirmed for the second half of the games, while Prince Harry would be attending the opening ceremony solo.
The accompanying photo depicted Meghan and Harry joyfully holding up a banner bearing the words "Invictus Games." Their beaming smiles were palpable through the image, clearly reflecting their enthusiasm for the upcoming event.

The strategic timing has certainly stirred intrigue within the royal-watchers' community.
