Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have embarked on a tumultuous journey since entering the spotlight of Tinseltown. While they still go by their royal titles, their titles remain in constant jeopardy. Furthermore, every move they make, from stress relievers to philanthropic endeavors, is met with contrasting views. The cherry on top is the lack of fixed roles in the occupational realm and the dearth of a support system. And while up until now, 2023 was proving to be a tale about their downfall, the tables have turned, and quite drastically so, after the Invictus Games in Germany.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may not have actively participated in the games during the much-hailed Invictus Games, but they have emerged as true winners. Not only are the couple returning to the States with the glow of a positive spotlight backing them up, but also new Hollywood friends after the debacle with the Beckhams.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may not be able to present proof about the plethora of allegations they have made against the royal family, but what they can prove is their skill to weather out storms. Ever since the beginning, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been met with many challenges, but they have always persevered. And this skill of theirs was on full display at the Invictus Games after they had been dragged through the mud following their Spotify falloff. Their streak of luck seems to have followed them to their vacation in Portugal as they made friends with Chris Evans and his wife, Alba Baptista.

According to trusted sources of Page Six, Chris Evans and Alba Baptista ran into Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at a bar or restaurant in Portugal. The meetup was completely coincidental. Despite being in the same industry, the couple did not know each other on a personal level. Both Chris Evans and Alba Baptista and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were winding off in the Iberian Peninsula after marking significant milestones.

Post-Megxit Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reduced their public appearances. And even the appearances they do make together do not possess the same jugular grip on netizens. This was clearer than ever after they released Harry & Meghan and Spare as they lost their Spotify deal and hard-earned friendship with the Beckhams. While netizens did not expect them to recover anytime soon, the Sussexes have turned the tide with their Invictus Games appearance. And their new connection with Chris Evans and Alba Baptista is the cherry on top.

The Duke of Sussex had laid the foundation of the Invictus Games years ago. However, it was quite surprising to see how much of a savior the games have proved to be this year. Despite the lack of dramatic narration over candid photos, the Heart of Invictus has garnered more favorable reviews than their dramatic Harry & Meghan release. It is up to the Sussexes, however, to make the best use of the newfound favor and Hollywood connection.
