Give Harry his props, he admits that he stole “from the Americans” even if he can’t help but brag that he made his Games “bigger and better.”

Mills admitted that the early work on the Games was daunting: “we had no money, we had no people. We just had a very good idea.”

Royal Family News – Harry Founded The Invictus Games

While Harry is basking in the glory of the Games, his behavior with his family leaves something to be desired.

After four years of constant ranting about the monarchy, it should be no surprise that Harry is on his own this week, set to stay at a hotel and not allowed to visit with the family he has hassled in print and in public.

Harry’s spokesman told the New York Post on Tuesday that Harry will not see his father, who is undergoing cancer treatment, “due to His Majesty’s full program. The duke, of course, is understanding of his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon.”
