In the upcoming month, the Duke of Sussex is scheduled to return to the UK to participate in a service at St. Paul's Cathedral, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the games in London. In an interview with the Daily Express, PR expert Edward Coram-James stressed the significance of Harry's connection to the royal family, stating, "Harry has a clear path to rebuilding his reputation. From a PR standpoint, severing ties with your lifeline is not advisable."
Coram-James further explained, "If the Duke can objectively assess the situation and demonstrate a steadfast commitment to causes like Invictus, there is a high likelihood that his popularity will significantly increase in the years to come."
The expert also contemplated the possibility of The Invictus Games continuing without Harry as its representative. He acknowledged that the event still garners favorable public sentiment but highlighted that it has evolved beyond its founder. According to Edward, Invictus no longer relies solely on Harry for media attention, as it has established its own presence and reputation.
