The Duke of Sussex is travelling without his wife for the event at Birmingham's NEC.

The Duke of Sussex was welcomed by enthusiastic supporters of his Invictus Games, as he arrived at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham. But he was not accompanied by his wife Meghan, who was originally planned to be here, but now is not going to be at any public events in the UK this week. It's been a bumpy return to the UK for Prince Harry, in a week that was meant to promote the Invictus Games for injured service men and women. Instead it's been overshadowed by his court defeat against Associated Newspapers and confusion over whether Meghan and their children will be coming to the UK. Prince Harry's appearance at the NEC was at an event marking the countdown to the Invictus Games, which will be hosted in Birmingham next year. He watched a showcase of the games which will be played at Invictus, including wheelchair rugby and pickleball - a sport which combines tennis, table tennis and badminton. Prince Harry tried his hand at pickleball, playing in a doubles game, watched by competitors, families and supporters. Appearing on ITV's Good Morning Britain on Friday during the event, Prince Harry said the games were about "overcoming adversity".
