In the official trailer, the royal is seen addressing a large crowd: “It is here at the Invictus Games that you realise whatever you carry, it was a springboard that propelled you to the next level.”

“The Games doesn’t focus on what causes the injury but really about the recovery and how to be part of a community again.”

“Veterans are a community in America who quite rightly do need high-profile figures standing up for them. And anyone who does that is going to get a significant reputational boost out of doing so.

“One way that Harry seeks to rebuild the brand with some more kind of worthy but perhaps less attention-grabbing content.”

When launching the Games in Sydney in 2018, the duke said: “From my life-changing flight back from the battlefields of Afghanistan, to the example of America’s warrior games, Invictus was inspired by the experiences I had alongside our servicemen and women from many nations.”

The 2023 Invictus Games will be held in Dusseldorf in Germany.
