Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are ready for the 2023 Invictus Games! After attending a kickoff event for the annual sports competition in Düsseldorf, Germany, in September, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared in a new Invictus Games promo video in which they face off against each other in a fun game of ping-pong.
“Are you ready?

The 2023 Invictus Games will officially launch in Düsseldorf on Sept. 9, 2023, and will run until Sept. 16, 2023. The seven-day event honors wounded service members and veterans and holds a special place in Harry’s heart, as he founded the Games after serving in Afghanistan. The Invictus Games are also where Harry and Markle first crossed paths in 2016. At the time, Harry was launching the 2017 event in Toronto, where Markle was filming her show “Suits.”
