Prince Harry’s international multi-sport event has finally come to an end on Saturday. Like every year, the Invictus 2023 took in a wide range of sports for veterans to compete in. The Duke and the Duchess gave the multi-sporting event that took place in Düsseldorf a wholesome farewell. The Invictus Games held a special value for the Royal couple as they made their public appearance together with the Invictus Games. 

Despite stepping down from their royal duties, the couple conducts this event every year with a ton of excitement. However, the Royals’ efforts at philanthropy are not only limited to the Invictus. Recently, the Sussexes attended a fundraising event in Summerland to honor an Oscar-winning filmmaker with a special award.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle shared the stage with Oprah Winfrey

The last time Sussexes made it to the news alongside Oprah Winfrey, it caused shockwaves across the entire world. However, there were no shocking twists this time as the couple, along with Winfrey, attended a peaceful flagship event, the One805Live Fall Festival. The royals joined Kevin Costner, who is also the ambassador of The One805 Advisory Council, to present him with an honorary award. Costner along with his wife Christine hosted this year’s festival on their ocean-side estate in Summerland.

The charity fundraising festival is for honoring all the Santa Barbara County 1st responders, including police officers, paramedics, emergency medical technicians, and firefighters. Winfrey took to the stage to deliver a heartfelt speech for all the local first responders and honored them. This festival has also been gaining a lot of attention owing to Maroon 5’s headlining the Fall One805LIVE. Apart from the Maroon 5, the festival will also have many other stars in attendance in the coming months. 

Meanwhile, although the 2023 Invictus is over, fans are still circulating posts of the closing ceremony performers who set the stage ablaze.

The event that celebrates wounded, injured, and sick military members had a grand finale on 16th September. The Duchess turned many heads with her glamorous green strapless dress, while the Duke opted for his signature black ensemble. However, the highlight of the show was the performances from British stars Rita Ora and Sam Ryder. The moment Ryder took to the stage, Meghan Markle completely got into the vibe and started to belt out his song ‘Mountain’. 

Even the ‘Hot Right Now’ singer took the stage by storm, maintaining her edgy style in a sheer black crisscross pattern catsuit. The singer along with the Royals posed for a picture at the backstage of Invictus closing ceremony. Both the singers performed back-to-back bangers, giving the Paralympic games its deserved ending. Additionally, the Duke and the Duchess gave all the contenders a heartwarming goodbye down the stage.
