What has happened to Meghan’s teeth? They are huge!

If Israel are at In Invictus there is absolutely no way the King will attend zero chance.

I agree, and in Birmingham as well after the Maccabee (sp) fiasco. Too much of a political hot potato .

... it was started and should be about the wounded veterans

I've thought the same from the start, @jeffgoldblum, but gave up all hope of that some time ago Sad

BTW I looked up who's opened past ones, and while it's largely been H&M, I see that until 2017 they had First Ladies (Michelle and Melania) involved too.
Can't quite see that happening now somehow ...

Camilla? 😉

For a birthday present?

KnickerlessParsons · 10/01/2026 20:04

I wonder where H&M will stay in Birmingham? 🧐

I bet she can't wait 😂. Although tbf I reckon she'd make a better job it .
Can't see it , but funny , nonetheless.

To be honest , I am not convinced that Invictus Birmingham will go ahead given the state of their finances plus many veterans are disillusioned ( we are friends with some) .

I hope very much that if the Birmingham IG doesn't go ahead there is an exhaustive probe into where the £26m spent on luring it to the venue went.

Well quite. But somehow I don't believe Johnny Mercer and chums want to chat about that.

This! I genuinely don’t understand how 26m can have been spent. I mean honestly, on what exactly? Have they built anything or is there anything actually to show for the money?

bluegreygreen · 10/01/2026 22:35

An updated story has a statement from an Invictus Games spokesperson. I wonder if they are getting a bit tired of being involved in the Sussex spin as well?

'The Royal Family have been longstanding supporters of the Invictus Games since its inception in 2014, with The Duke of Sussex as the Founding Patron of the Invictus Games Foundation.
'While it is too early to confirm who will attend in 2027 as invitations have not yet been sent out, organisers of the Invictus Games Birmingham 2027 will issue invitations to members of the Royal Family in due course, and we would very much welcome their presence.'

Another reason to hope Harry doesn’t secure the security he’s after - we don’t want her back!

Empty promises, she knows he isn’t going to win.

BigWillyLittleTodger · 11/01/2026 01:08

I think she will come security or no security, her ego won’t be able to resist.

cockandbullstories · 11/01/2026 01:18

She thinks she is so important, poor deluded soul.

Thedom · 11/01/2026 05:27

At least there is now a big “IF” back in the headlines around security.

Thedom · 11/01/2026 07:37

Pretty impressive

The British Monarchy - known as 'The Firm' - was recently rated by the US data firm Statista as the world's fifth strongest brand after Facebook, Amazon, Google and Apple.

No wonder Harry and Meghan are desperate to get back in with the RF, explains why they are coming back with their tails between legs.

She’ll find the people of Birmingham a bit different from Californians.
