Prince Harry displays wedding photo with Meghan on virtual date

Prince Harry seemed to have a special photo with Meghan Markle shown while appearing virtually at a NATO meeting.

On October 30, the Duke of Sussex, 40, spoke to the NATO Military Committee at NATO Headquarters via video teleconference about the Invictus Games Foundation’s mission to uplift wounded, injured and ill service members and veterans through sport. The nato The headquarters are in Berlin, Germany, and a delegation from the Invictus Games Foundation personally attended the meeting.

A statement said the group briefed the Military Committee on Invictus and how it was accelerating its vision. Prince Harry, a former captain in the British Army, launched the Invictus Games as an international adaptive sports tournament for wounded, injured and service personnel and veterans as a means of healing in 2014.

While Invictus is synonymous with the competition held biennially in various cities around the world, it also offers programming beyond the games, with the aspiration of building a global support network for wounded, injured and ill veterans.

Prince Harry appeared at the meeting via video screen and pinned a red poppy to the lapel of his suit. Every November, members of the British royal family are known to incorporate the symbolic flower into their wardrobe. Poppies have been used since 1921 to remember honorary personnel who died in war, and the red flower is closely associated with Britain and Commonwealth countries for Remembrance Day on 11 November.
