In the clip, the Duke of Sussex was seen smiling as the audience erupted into cheers, chanting his name in unison: “Harry! Harry! Harry!”

With a lighthearted gesture, he encouraged them to take their seats, though their enthusiasm only grew.

The memorable moment followed heartfelt praise from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who recognized Harry’s pivotal role in bringing the Invictus Games to life.

“To the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, without whom these Invictus Games would never have happened,” Trudeau shared, per People Magazine. “You, you are the one who turned this incredible idea into a reality and as someone that you roped in early on in my time as Prime Minister, I can testify to the energy, the dedication, the commitment this man has to you and to this ideal.”

The heartfelt tribute moved Harry to tears. Following the emotional moment, the Duke addressed the Invictus Games participants and their loved ones with an inspiring speech.

“Now, I can’t stand before you and promise that there won’t be challenging times ahead,” he began. “But I promise you, you’re better equipped now than you were before. You’ve reclaimed what was lost, restored what was broken, achieved the impossible.”

Harry also made a firm commitment regarding the future of the Invictus Games.

“From one soldier to another, I also promise you this: so long as our brothers and sisters are striving to heal and grow, the games will go on,” the prince vowed. “So long as there are those around the world who view you with sympathy rather than admiration and respect, the games will go on. And so long as the challenges around us demand it and require it, the games will go on.”

On X, Harry was showered with praises following the successful completion of the Invictus Games and his incredible speech.

Someone wrote, “That was a powerful Speech, very emotional very inspiring. We are incredibly proud of you.”

“Back home taking care of our babies, and missing my Valentine, as he continues on at the Invictus Games, changing lives and reminding all of us of the power of healing and resilience through these incredible veterans and their families,” Meghan wrote alongside the photo.
