Prince Harry made his return to the public eye a couple of days after his wife, Meghan Markle, attended the launch of Highbrow Hippie, a new hair care and wellness brand created by his close friend, Kadi Lee.
The Duke of Sussex surprised everyone on Sunday, November 17, by appearing at the Grey Cup in Toronto, where he used the occasion to promote the Invictus 2025 Games to be held in Canada.
Taking the microphone, he demonstrated his skills as a presenter, a facet he could definitely explore further in the future.
As a member of the royal family, Harry has honed his public speaking skills, and his experience lecturing around the world has helped him to perform with great fluency in public.
The Invictus Games, which Harry sponsors and which were founded in 2014, will be held in Vancouver and Whistler next February.
This edition will include winter sports such as alpine skiing, snowboarding, biathlon, Nordic skiing, skeleton, and wheelchair curling, an exciting new addition to the event.

During his appearance on TSN, Prince Harry commented that it was his first time at the Grey Cup.
“Really looking forward to the game getting started,” he said of the Canadian Football League match between the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Toronto Argonauts. “Let’s go!” he added when speaking with commentator James Duthie.
He also took the courage to talk about what position he would play if he were part of the Canadian Football League. “I think quarterback is a cool place to be,” expressed Prince Harry.
Referring to the Invictus Games, he highlighted the importance of the event.
“It’s really an opportunity for the individuals themselves and their families to heal and rehabilitate through sport.”
The Duke of Sussex also mentioned that as the multi-sport event prepares to come to Canada in 2025 with its first winter sports edition, “This time in less than three months we’ll be back for the opening ceremony in February, so that’s what we’re really excited about.”
Undoubtedly, Harry’s presence at these events not only highlights his commitment to important causes, but also reminds us of the ability of sport to unite and heal.
