Prince Harry has been urged to 'step down' from the Invictus Games by veterans who feel it has 'lost meaning', with critics saying that his and Meghan Markle's recent involvement in the event is "too royal".The 39 year old Duke of Sussex, who co-founded the Invictus Games in 2014 and was initially lauded for his efforts, is now facing calls to resign as some veterans believe the games have strayed from their original purpose.
According to the Express, a royal commentator has noted that what used to be one of Harry's "great achievements" is now "imperilled".
On GB News, Royal Biographer Angela Levin discussed the issue with host Mark Dolan, who mentioned: "About 2,000 ex-military have left the games, as they say it's lost its original meaning." He added: "There are some former veterans who would like Harry to step down." Angela criticised the current state of the games, saying: "It's become much too royal.
Meghan makes the speeches, she actually led a march where some of the ex-military people were either physically, emotionally or psychologically damaged, or all of it, during the fighting." She expressed that many were unhappy with this because Meghan does not have experience with military marching, and they don't want her involvement, reports the Daily Record.
