In an interview with OK! magazine, Jennie explained, "Both the King and Prince William firmly believe that one must either be fully committed to the duties of a working royal or step away completely. This middle ground seems rather peculiar." She further added, "I believe that both the King, the Prince, and even the government would want it to be crystal clear that Harry is not representing either the Royal Family or the United Kingdom during this trip."
The disclosure of Prince William and King Charles' perspective follows Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's warm reception in Nigeria during their three-day visit. The couple themselves shared details of their royal welcome on their newly-launched website.
In a post on their website, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex expressed, "We received a vibrant and heartwarming welcome to Nigeria by Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, at Defence Headquarters in Abuja." The couple highlighted the open-armed reception they received, underscoring the deep connections fostered through the Invictus community. They described the Invictus Games as a celebration of resilience and the indomitable spirit of injured service personnel, united by the transformative power of sport.
