It comes as Meghan and her husband, Harry, were serenaded by Michael Bublé on February 16 – with the singer hailing the Duke a “visionary”.

The Canadian crooner, 48, re-worded Frank Sinatra’s epic “My Way” in a nod to Harry.

The tune – popular at funerals – included the line: “You’ve earned each day, the right to say, I did it my way”.

Bublé also expressed “healing wishes for your dad” in tribute to cancer-stricken King Charles.

Earlier Bublé and Harry shared a laugh as the prince had a go at wheelchair curling.

The crooner’s lilt came shortly before Harry addressed 200 guests at a lavish gala dinner in Vancouver, Canada.

He told the audience of athletes, comprised of injured and sick servicemen and women, they embodied “courage, leadership, and fortitude”.

The event followed a three day tour by the Sussexes of Whistler, Squamish, and Vancouver, a year before the first Winter Invictus Games.

The Prince said the decade since he founded the games had “been a testament to the power of resilience and the unbreakable spirit you all exemplify”.

Wearing a dark suit and a black tie, he said: “The Invictus Games are not just a competition; they’re a way of life, a celebration of the human spirit.

“The games provide a platform for us to showcase your abilities, to inspire the world, and honour the sacrifices of those we have lost.

“It is a reminder that we are not defined by our injuries, but by our strength, our commitment, and our ability to overcome adversity.”

He then quoted from William Ernest Henley, whose poem Invictus serves as the games’ namesake, remarking: “I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul.”

Meghan, 42, wore a one-shoulder olive green dress by Canadian designer Greta Constantine, a necklace by Logan Hollowell and Manolo Blahnik shoes.

In an interview on Friday with Good Morning America, Harry discussed his dad’s health, family life and even American citizenship.

He also revealed how kids Archie, four, and Lilibet, two, have “incredible” senses of humour.

Harry and Meghan are thought to be travelling home to Montecito, California, this weekend.
