Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, was seen sobbing after the Invictus Games cut ties with her and her husband, Prince Harry, right after the closing ceremony.
The Invictus Games is a sporting event for wounded, injured and sick service personnel, and it was founded by Harry in 2014. The Sussexes had been patrons of the games since its inception, but they stepped back from their royal duties in 2020 and moved to the United States.
The Invictus Games announced on Saturday that it would be cutting ties with the Sussexes. The organization said that it had made the decision “after careful consideration” and that it was “in the best interests of the Invictus Games Foundation.”
The decision was met with mixed reactions. Some people supported the decision, saying that it was necessary to distance the games from the Sussexes, who have been critical of the royal family. Others criticized the decision, saying that it was unfair to the Sussexes and that it would damage the reputation of the games.
Meghan was seen sobbing after the announcement was made. She was reportedly upset by the decision and felt that it was a betrayal of her and Harry’s work with the games.
The decision to cut ties with the Sussexes is a major blow to the couple. The Invictus Games was one of Harry’s most important projects, and it was seen as a way for him to continue his royal duties even after he stepped back from the family.
The decision also raises questions about the future of the Sussexes’ relationship with the royal family. The couple has been critical of the family in the past, and it is unclear if they will ever be able to repair their relationship.
It remains to be seen how the Sussexes will respond to the decision. They could try to appeal the decision, or they could simply accept it and move on. However, it is clear that the decision has damaged their reputation and made it more difficult for them to maintain a positive public image.
The decision to cut ties with the Sussexes is also a reminder of the power of the royal family. The Invictus Games is a major international event, and the decision to cut ties with the Sussexes shows that the royal family is still a force to be reckoned with.
