Prince Harry and his girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle were photographed on their first official appearance in public, supporting Invictus Games.

The pair has apparently broken an unofficial rule, however, followed by his older brother William and his partner Kate. It’s an unwritten rule that royals don’t show public displays of affection, particularly those who aren’t married yet. The couple were watching a tennis match at the Invictus Games, a Paralympics esc event founded by Harry for wounded soldiers and veterans.

The match took place in Canada, in Toronto.

Speaking at the Canadian Institute for Military and Veteran Health Research, Harry told them his inspiration for the Games.

Prince Harry talks to UK wheelchair volleyball team member Charlie Walker, who is taking part in the 2016 Invictus Games

‘We are dangling a carrot of sporting glory to help reignite qualities which have been worn down by months and often years of fighting – fighting to find purpose, fighting to reconnect with family, fighting to get fit again, fighting to leave the house and in some cases fighting to stay alive.

Sport, of course, is not the only answer, but it is a hugely powerful tool.’

He’s a good boy.

  • Food Food Review: Las Iguanas, Newcastle
    4/5 If you love a good theme, Las Iguanas is a restaurant you might like to try. The Latin American-style chain has restaurants all over the country, but I recently popped into the one on Grey Street just down from the Theatre Royal. As always, the restaurant itself is pristine and the atmosphere is super […]

  • Books Book Review: 1984 by George Orwell
    1/5 1984 is always cited as one of the best books ever written. It’s supposed to be intelligent, sharp and profound. Instead, I found it to be dull, rambling and unremarkable. Oh, and rampantly sexist. George Orwell was clever – I’ve read his essays and I like them. But 1984? It was hard to believe […]
