Prince Harry is reportedly seething with anger over the prominent role Mike Tindall has been assigned at the Invictus Games, according to Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams.
The Invictus Games, inspired by the US Warrior Games and established by Prince Harry in 2014, are designed to give injured veterans the opportunity to compete in sporting events akin to the Paralympics.
Speaking to GB News, Fitzwilliams expressed his view that the event has become “too royal” due to the involvement of Harry and Meghan Markle, reports the Express.

He remarked: “Mike Tindall, who is the husband of Zara, the King’s niece, has been given a high position to do something about the Invictus Games.
“I think Harry is absolutely furious about this. It has been announced, but very quietly.”
Fitzwilliams continued: “Some people say they want Harry because he’s the beginning of the whole Invictus Games, and other people say that it would be delightful that they don’t do all this nonsense and they don’t want Meghan making speeches. They don’t want her leading marches.
“She did lead people who were in winning last year, and she walked as if she was at a dress show and they were walking behind her looking very angry because she doesn’t really know very much about the army and the military.”
The expert on Royal matters further suggested that any hopes for reconciliation between Harry and the Royal Family are slim, especially considering Harry’s prompt departure to reunite with Meghan following the May 8 event in London.
Fitzwilliams remarked: “He won’t be going to see his father or brother. It’s said that he won’t be here for very long.”
Prince Harry is expected to grace an upcoming event with his presence, sidestepping earlier plans of a virtual appearance due to security concerns.
His recent legal tussle with the Home Office over police protection ended in disappointment, as his request for Royal security services was denied.
The Duke of Sussex’s appeal for additional protection was ultimately dismissed this February after a protracted legal fight.
In spite of the ongoing disputes, Harry is set to return to UK soil next month for the Invictus Games event, an initiative he launched in 2014 with the Ministry of Defence.
