Meghan Markle returns to the red carpet with Harry: “I’ll always be proud of him”

Harry e Meghan Markle are back. The Sussex are reappeared as a couple all’Intrepid Museum di New York for the gala “Salute to Freedom »in honor of war veterans. When they entered – she in a blazing one red dress with slit by Carolina Herrera, on the chest of both red poppy that since 1921 commemorates the fallen – a reporter asked Markle if she was proud of her husband. She, with a decisive air, replied: “I’ll always be proud of him”.

During the evening Harry, that he served in the military for 10 years rising to the rank of captain and took part in two missions in Afghanistan (in 2008 and then in 2012), presenting the Intrepid Valor Awards, he recalled his past in the army: “My military experience made me who I am today and I will always be grateful for the people I have been able to serve around the world. But in war you see and experience things that you do not wish anyone. And that remain indelible in the mind ».

Harry – who had pinned on his chest in addition to the poppy four medals and around his neck he wore the cross of a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order – he later explained that he had created the Invictus Games, games for veterans, “to honor those who have given us so much” and to demonstrate “that men and women who have suffered injuries in service, as well as their families, are the strongest people in the world” .

The “Salute to Freedom” gala preceded the Remembrance Sunday than in all Commonwealth countries celebrates the fallen of the First World War. A very heartfelt anniversary for the British royal family. Harry didn’t celebrate her for the first time at the Whitehall Cenotaph with his august relatives last year. But he still wanted to honor the fallen by doing visits with his wife Meghan to the Los Angeles National Cemetery, and bringing the plucked flowers into their garden. The prince would have liked someone to lay a wreath in his name in London as well. Buckingham Palace, however, had replied “with a firm no”. The request had been rejected, as reported at the time by the Sunday Times “because Harry is no longer part of the royal family“. A refusal that, according to an insider, would have “Deeply saddened” Prince.

This time, however, at the “Salute to Freedom” gala, the prince appeared all smiles. Like his wife Meghan Markle. The Sussexes will of course not be there at Sunday celebrations in London. But they filmed the scene early on the New York red carpet.
