Prince Harry wears chinos for third day at Invictus Games

Prince Harry has said his girlfriend Meghan Markle is ‘loving’ the Invictus Games – her first taste of royal life after appearing with Harry in an official capacity for the first time.

The Prince revealed her passion for the Paralympic-style event for injured servicemen he set up three years ago when he met cycling competitors in Toronto this afternoon.

‘I asked him how his girlfriend was enjoying it and he said ‘she loves it, she’s loving the games,’ which is awesome’ said former US air force master sergeant Kyle Burnett, 37.

However, the Suits star might not be so keen on her boyfriend’s packing skills as he seems to have arrived in Toronto with only one pair of trousers. 

Harry, 33, arrived at High Park to watch the recumbent cycling race, wearing his favourite £70 Dockers this afternoon for the third day running. 

Hopefully he has been availing of the laundry service at the five star Fairmont Royal York where he’s staying with current temperatures in Toronto currently hitting 27C. 

Prince Harry, 33, arrived at High Park in Toronto to watch a cycling time trial wearing his favourite navy chinos, believed to be £70 Dockers for the third day running.

Today, Reese Hines, 36, provided something of an eye-popping moment for the prince as he toured the cycling teams at High Park in Toronto.

He explained: ‘My fiancée and I were standing there and she was explaining to him about my prosthetic right eye. He said it looked real and somebody had a great job making it.

‘I told him I had a couple of others, one has my occupation badge on it and he asked if it was easy to take in and out. Kyle said “Go ahead, take it out”. Harry was kind of squeamish about it.’

Former US Air Force master sergeant Mr Hinds had his right eye removed following a skull fracture he sustained when an IED exploded in Afghanistan in 2011.

His fiancee Kyle Burnett suffered a traumatic brain disorder and has PTSD from a rocket attack in Iraq in 2009.

She said: ‘The socket’s not bad. You’re not going to see his brain. He said “its more he fact that he’s taking it out of his eye.” People think they’re like marbles that roll across the ground.’

‘Reese likes to pop it out and put it in somebody’s drink. It’s his party trick. At least we didn’t do that for the prince.’

The couple, from Eagle River, Alaska, are both medically retired and she is taking part in various sports and games.

They are planning their wedding for next June and Miss Burnett added: ‘You can tell him that we are inviting him to our wedding.’

Mr Hines added: ‘He was real personable and there was no sense of him being in the royal family. He seemed like a normal military veteran.

‘It has been an incredible experience. It’s been real fun to see when people win and even when people don’t win you can tell they’re doing their best and are happy that they got to compete.’

‘Having people finish the race is a lot of people’s goals.’

His fiancé said of the prince: ‘The fact that he’s used his status to bring this to the world stage is phenomenal.

‘He can reach the world and show that these folks aren’t done. That’s the worst thing that anyone can do to us look at us differently. You can tell it’s very near and dear to him. He’s making sure no-one gets left behind.’

Mr Hines added: ‘He’s served beside us and now he’s able to put these games on and stands with us as we’re competing.’

This year is the biggest event yet with some 550 competitors from 17 nations taking part in 12 adaptive spots, such as swimming, athletics and tennis.

Harry is making it his mission to attend as many training sessions and events as possible to watch participants competing in all 12 sports, including athletics, cycling and wheelchair basketball.

His girlfriend Meghan attended the opening ceremony on Saturday but was not seated with her boyfriend, but after their outing on Monday royal fans are hoping the couple will make another appearance together before the games finish.
