Meghan is excited to travel to the Invictus Game as it is close to Prince Harry’s heart, however, this hasn’t gone down well with the Palace. Palace insiders have slammed the couple's decision to attend the ceremony in The Hague after Harry said it was too unsafe to fly to the UK. Even former Met Inspector Ken Wharfe confirmed that the potential risk of the Game is far greater than any risk Prince Harry might be at in London. Inspector Wharfe has worked before for private protection for Harry, William and Princess Diana.
