Prince Harry couldn’t contain his happiness over his wife’s pregnancy while delivering a speech at the at the Sydney Opera House for the opening ceremony of an international multi-sport event, Invictus Games, which he launched in 2014 for injured service personnel:
“Thank you for the welcome you have given Meghan and I over the last few days. I have been so proud to be able to introduce my wife to you and we have been so happy to have been able to share the personal joy of our newest addition with you all,” the glowing Duke of Sussex said.
"Be inspired, get excited, and allow the example of service and determination you will see, to change something big or small in your own lives.
