The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, who established the Invictus Games in 2014, has grown to be a source of motivation, enabling injured warriors to triumph over hardship and reach greatness. The uplifting spirit was on full display when, in 2025 at the Invictus Games, Prince Harry was recently quizzed by an athlete about The Crown, showcasing his quick wit and humility. With this characteristic of himself, the Prince subtly transformed what could have been an uncomfortable situation into a heartwarming display of his compassion and love for his community.

The lighthearted exchange has been making headlines, highlighting the special bond between Prince Harry and the Invictus Games community.

An athlete caught Prince Harry off guard by asking him a lighthearted inquiry regarding his royal credentials. "Are you really a prince?" the athlete asked him in the popular video posted on X. The Duke confirmed, "Yes I am," to which the competitor jokingly asked, "Where is your crown?" Prince Harry could not help but burst out laughing about the athlete's mischievous question. The exchange was caught on camera and quickly went viral, winning the hearts of the people on social media, showcasing and highlighting Prince Harry's remarkable capacity for empathy and humor.

Prince Harry's passion for the Invictus Games stems from his firsthand experience of the sacrifices and struggles of the veterans during his duty in Afghanistan. He realized that the journey to recovery is not just physical, but also about gaining a sense of purpose. Prince Harry's desire to provide a platform for the injured veterans has been a success. However, the Invictus Games success is only one side of the coin and the Duke of Sussex has much more driving his purpose.

Prince Harry's good mood may also have something to do with the recent quality time that he spent with his wife, Meghan Markle.
