Yesterday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the countdown celebrations for the Invictus Games 2025, which will be held in February next year in Vancouver, Canada. Enrique is the creator of this sports competition of adapted games that aims to support war veterans or those injured in combat, which is his most notable philanthropic activity since his resignation.
Together with his wife, Meghan Markle, they visited the Whistler ski resort to meet three groups of adapted skiers: one for sitting alpine skiing, one for standing skiing, and another for visually impaired athletes. During the day, the son of King Charles III descended a slope with an adapted ski chair to highlight that, for the first time, next year the event will include winter sports.
The former actress could not resist taking a photograph of the moment with a mobile phone, an unusual gesture among the British royal family when they attend public events. The trip, which will last three days, has generated a lot of expectation as it is the first time that the couple appears together after the news about Carlos III’s cancer diagnosis.
This appointment also comes after the dukes have relaunched their brand with a name change on their website that could bring them more problems with the British royal family. On Monday night Harry and Meghan launched a website under the domain Sussex.com, which includes their biographies and lists their recent activities. This page replaces Archewell.com, the site and name that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex used until now to communicate the activities of their foundation and their content production company.
The couple already used the name SussexRoyal before leaving for the United States, and since their resignation they have not been allowed to continue using that name. It was then said that it was evident that a British royal title should not be used for commercial purposes away from the influence of the British royal family. This new name that Enrique and Meghan use for their website presents the same problems. Again, the use of his title and royal coat of arms for commercial purposes could provoke complaints from the British.
