Prince Harry is reportedly “furious” over Mike Tindall being “given a high position” at the Invictus Games. Fashioned after the Warrior Games in the US, the Invictus Games were founded by Harry in 2014 to provide wounded army veterans with a competition similar to the Paralympics. 

According to royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams's statement to GB News, the Games have become “too royal” because of Harry and his wife Meghan Markle. He claimed: “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 added.

In his statement to GB News, per the Daily Express, Fitzwilliams claimed, “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.” 

He continued, “She did lead people who were in winning last year, and she walked as if she were 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.”
