The group Harry was pictured with conduct all assessments of the competitors at the Invictus Games to facilitate fair competition.
He yesterday endured a tearful and lonely vigil at the Queen’s resting place on the first anniversary of her death.
Harry, 38, was pictured looking choked up as he emerged from St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle at 9.50am.
The chapel had been unlocked especially for Harry’s private vigil.
He spent time alone by the ledger marking where his gran was interned with her beloved Philip.
The spot is inside the area called King George VI Memorial Chapel, part of the main chapel, and is open to the public.
After his vigil, Harry flew from Heathrow to Germany and checked into the €1,600-a-night Presidential suite at the Hyatt Regency hotel.
He will open his Invictus Games today and Meghan, 42, is expected to join him there on Monday.
But mystery surrounds Meghan’s role after she was deleted from the media schedule.
An official guide to the games showed the Duchess of Sussex would “take to the stage” for the closing ceremony, according to MailOnline.
Meghan was reportedly due to host a segment about the competitors, but sources claim the information was included in error.
It comes after Harry spoke about the Queen at the WellChild charity gala in West London on Thursday.
He was on a whistle-stop trip to the UK for the first time since he was evicted by Charles from Frogmore Cottage on the Castle estate.
