In the presence of the British Prince are in Düsseldorf “Invictus Games” been opened. “I am a Düsseldorfer”he shouted during his speech in the stadium, based on the quote from US President John F. Kennedy (“I am a Berliner) and promptly received criticism. For some commentators it was “too much self-expression”. After all, the Invictus Games weren’t about him, but about the participants. The “Invictus Games” are a sports competition for war disabled people founded by Harry in 2014. 500 wounded, injured and sick soldiers and veterans from 21 nations compete against each other in ten sports. Around half of the competitors suffer primarily from psychological damage.
Harry will be in town throughout the tournament week and will watch several games over the following days. His wife Meghan (41), with whom he lives in California, is not expected in Germany until later this week. She should make it by Friday – that’s the day Harry celebrates his 39th birthday. The couple visited the city a year ago and were applauded by everyone. By now they would have “lost an awful lot of its magic”says ZDF royalty expert Julia Melchior of the German Press Agency.
