Meghan Markle, accompanied by her husband Prince Harry, attended the sixth edition of Prince Harry’s Invictus Games in Germany.
However, keen observers noticed that Meghan was not wearing her engagement ring during the event.
Reports suggest that a setting on the ring had become loose and is currently being repaired by Cleve and Company, the late Queen Elizabeth’s trusted jeweler.
Prince Harry had designed the ring with their assistance.
During the wheelchair basketball competition on Wednesday, Meghan was seen sporting a chic ensemble consisting of J.Crew linen shorts, a matching blazer top, and a black tank top.
To accessorize, she wore a Givenchy belt, a Cartier watch that once belonged to Princess Diana, and a Lorraine Schwartz pinky ring.
This outfit choice would not have been possible if the couple were still part of the royal family, as there are strict fashion protocols to adhere to.
In fact, according to etiquette expert William Hansen, dressing young boys in shorts is considered a silent class marker in England.
The recent heatwave in Germany seemed to have affected Meghan, as her shorts appeared wrinkled.
Some observers even commented on the difference in size between her legs.
Despite these criticisms, Meghan remained poised and confident throughout the event.
She even brought her own photographer to capture the moments.
However, some royal experts have accused Meghan of making the Invictus Games all about herself.
Andrew Pearce, writing for the Daily Mail, pointed out that Meghan made a speech during the event, focusing mainly on herself rather than highlighting the importance of the Games and the servicemen and women involved.
This has led to further speculation about her overshadowing Prince Harry and drawing attention away from the cause.
Royal commentator Angela Levin also weighed in on Prince Harry’s behavior, noting that he appeared happier and more carefree when he was not with Meghan.
She cited his excitement during a football game where he watched Lionel Messi play.
However, when attending a Beyonce concert with Meghan, his demeanor seemed different, and he appeared less enthusiastic compared to his wife.
Despite these observations, Prince Harry continues to support his wife and fulfill his duties.
It remains to be seen how their dynamic will evolve in the future, but for now, they are focused on the success of the Invictus Games and the noble cause it represents.
