Following his devastating defeat in the Daily Mail privacy case, Prince Harry made a discreet appearance in London, hiding from journalists.
On Wednesday, July 8, the official Instagram Stories of the Invictus Games revealed that the Duke of Sussex stepped out for a key summit on Day 2 of the Invictus Week.
During his latest outing, the estranged prince paid a special visit to Royal Hospital Chelsea – a historic retirement and nursing home in London which was founded by King Charles II in 1682.
According to the hospital’s website, it is “the home of the iconic Chelsea Pensioners, who are all retired soldiers of the British Army.”
In the Story, a snap of the hospital was shared with a text stating, “Welcome to the Royal Hospital Chelsea for Day 2 of Invictus Week.”
The next update showed a group of managers, who gathered at the hospital with the duke for a “Team Managers Summit.”
Notably, upon arriving at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, Prince Harry made a discreet entrance inside the veterans’ nursing facility through a side entrance, successfully bypassing assembled journalists and photographers.
