Prince Harry made his much-anticipated return to London on Tuesday May 7 and on Wednesday, he attended a service at St Paul’s Cathedral to mark the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games.

However, it was a flying visit because the Prince will soon be heading off to join his wife Meghan for their trip to Nigeria.

The couple are understood to have been invited by the Chief of Defence Staff, the highest-ranking military official in the country, who Harry met at the Invictus Games in Dusseldorf last September.


Speaking to HELLO! at the event on Wednesday, Harry’s friend and Director at Invictus Games Foundation David Wiseman commented on the significance of the trip.

He said: “We’re going over to Nigeria over the next few days and we’re going over to see the progress that’s being made with regards to establishing and developing sports recovery in that nation and celebrating that incredible progress that they’ve made.”

The country holds a special place in Meghan’s heart as the mum-of-two has Nigerian heritage which she revealed on her former podcast, Archetypes.

Talking with celebrity interviewer Ziwe, the royal said: “I just had my genealogy done a couple years ago… [and I’m] Forty-three percent Nigerian.”
