The delivery of these petitions to the Invictus Games Board of Leadership and its patrons set off a chain reaction of revisions to the organization's structure, which are now prominently visible on the Invictus homepage and Wikipedia. Notably, Prince Harry's name has completely vanished, replaced by a fresh face, Charles Allen, Baron Allen of Kensington.
Critics argue that Harry and Meghan have exploited the veterans' pain and the history of hurt for their own profit, and Canadians are increasingly appalled by the notion of an ex-British Prince and his American actress wife receiving the green light to continue their involvement.
They argue that Harry and Meghan never properly thanked the Canadian taxpayers who covered their security costs during their previous stay in Canada, making them undeserving of taxpayer funds or the opportunity to exploit the suffering associated with the recent discovery of unmarked graves.
Prince Harry's removal from any association with the Invictus Games, which naturally includes Meghan as she rode the coattails of Prince Harry's involvement for publicity, has become a clear stance taken by the organization.
Sources have revealed that Meghan and Harry were not welcomed at the Invictus Games in Vancouver and Whistler in 2025. However, Meghan promised Canadians that she intended to bring her children as an excuse for them to return to the place where they once lived.
People seemed excited about the prospect of meeting Archie and Lilibet. Meghan expressed her hopes that the children would learn to ski, and with the Duke of Sussex's next Invictus Games set to be held in Vancouver and Whistler, Canada in 2025, it presents an ideal opportunity. These games will be the first to incorporate winter adaptive sports in addition to the core sports from previous Invictus Games, which were originally created by Harry in 2014 as an adaptive sporting competition for service personnel and veterans.
Bridget Bridge, the wife of an Invictus Games board member, shared that Meghan mentioned her desire for the children to learn to ski and believed that Whistler would be the perfect place for it. Meghan herself admitted that she didn't ski, so she was encouraged to bring the children to learn in the UK. Many view family ski holidays as a marker of wealth and class, and while Harry could undoubtedly afford to take his children on such trips, he hasn't done so.
This decision strikes many as peculiar, considering that most people who enjoy skiing would relish the opportunity to share this experience and skill with their family. Meghan's mention of skiing seems to be connected to her past association with a particular brand, and it appears that she is capitalizing on the trend.
In essence, Meghan's remarks about skiing align with the Kardashians' past PR efforts and their media coverage during winter months, where they made headlines for their skiing adventures. Meghan seems to be riding the wave of other people's PR stunts, using her words rather than actions to engage with the sport and its culture.
