The couple was seen smiling for photos and greeting fans ahead of the Invictus Games, which are being held in The Hague, the Netherlands, on Friday. During a party of friends and family, which saw the couple hanging out with some of the rivals, Markle wore an all-white Valentino jacket and trousers, while Prince Harry wore a blue-blue suit and white shirt. On social media, fans shared photos of Megan holding Prince Harry’s hand on several occasions during the event and looking at him with a smile on her face. “Megan is proud of her husband,” one person wrote. “I’re just enjoying every minute of this engagement,” another wrote on Twitter, along with a photo of Harry and Megan walking together. “THEIR HANDS.” Other people praised Prince Harry, who was also photographed looking at his wife and admiring her during the event. “Prince Harry is just looking at his beautiful wife Megan,” one person wrote on Twitter, along with photos of the duke and duchess. “The look of a proud husband knowing that #MeghanMarkle’s wife is well read and adds value to meaningful conversations with world leaders,” another Twitter user wrote in a photo of the couple talking to Hague Mayor Jan van Zanen. The couple arrived at the Invictus Games after visiting the Queen in the UK the day before. The presence of the Duke and Duchess at the event marks the first time that Prince Harry and Megan have made a public appearance in Europe since resigning in 2020. The Invictus Games were started in 2014 by Prince Harry and are an international sporting event for “injured, injured and sick service workers”, according to their official website. The aim of the event is to show how sport can “inspire rehabilitation, support rehabilitation and create a broader understanding and response for those who serve their country”.
