Nelly Furtado meets Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at Invictus Games

Over the weekend, the Invictus Games 2025 kicked off in Vancouver, Canada.

Amongst the stars at the opening ceremony was Nelly Furtado – the singer best known for songs such as Maneater and I’m Like A Bird.

The star was performing in the opening ceremony – and got the chance to meet the Sussexes after the show.

In a video shared on her Instagram, Nelly and Meghan, 43, could be seen dancing to her song, I’m Like A Bird.

However, a surprise guest made a hilarious appearance as he walked by in the background.

The surprise guest was none other than Prince Harry!

“They’re beautiful, that’s for sure [heart emoji] @meghan @weareinvictusgames,” Nelly captioned the post, which was seen by her 1.6 million followers.

However, some trolls weren’t impressed with her meeting with the Sussexes, with some branding the video as “cringe”.

Beyond cringe,” one troll commented.

“Sad day for you! She [Meghan] only photo-bombed you for herself!” another wrote.

“Nelly you don’t want to be hanging out with these two. You’re so much more classier than them. Seriously,” a third said.

However, there was plenty of positivity on Nelly’s post.

Nelly you don’t want to be hanging out with these two.

“You did an amazing performance! And thank you for supporting Harry and Meghan,” one fan commented.

“Love Harry and Meghan,” another wrote.

Meanwhile, a third gushed: “Love this. Love Harry in the background.”

Nelly shared a series of snaps from her time performing at the ceremony on Instagram. One clip showed the star posing for snaps with Harry and Meghan.

“I had so much fun putting together this performance for The Invictus Games opening ceremony. Thank you so much to @ill_abilities and @mattmaconlin for your energy and inspiration. Blessings to all of the competitors – thanks for sharing your light with us all,” she wrote.

Meanwhile, Harry found an opportunity to open up about his late mum at the Invictus Games this week.

Speaking to Canadian channel CTV, he said of his son: “Archie was asking about landmines so I was talking about how some of these guys were blown up.

“I think IEDs [Improvised explosive devices] are probably a little much at this point but I found myself talking to him about mines, he’s five years old.”

Real reason Queen Consort Camilla will change her royal title revealed: ‘It isn’t due to her popularity’

Queen Consort Camilla to undergo major title change

Last week it was revealed that Camilla will undergo a major title change at the coronation.

As reported by The Mirror last Thursday (March 16), Camilla will be dropping the ‘Consort’ from her Queen Consort title soon.

Once the coronation is done, the 75-year-old will reportedly be simply known as Queen Camilla going forwards.

The news was revealed when the coronation edition of the bible was leaked.

In it, it reads: “To commemorate the Coronation of their majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla. In the Abbey Church of St Peter, Westminster. The sixth day of May 2023.”

When Camilla first married Charles, it was expected that she would become Princess Consort when Charles became King.

However, as per the late Queen Elizabeth’s wishes, Camilla’s title was changed to Queen Consort when Charles took the throne.

Now it seems as though another tweak is in order for Camilla’s royal title.

Why is Queen Consort Camilla changing her title?

Now, the real reason behind Camilla’s title change has been revealed – and it’s nothing to do with her popularity.

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliam spoke exclusively to ED! about the decision to change Camilla’s title and the reasoning behind it.

“Camilla’s history with titles is unique,” he said.

“She was Princess of Wales but chose to be known as the Duchess of Cornwall,” he then continued.

” It was the official position that when Charles ascended the throne she would be known as Princess Consort, until the Queen’s intervention in the eve of her Platinum Jubilee.”

“She is Queen Consort, but it is a heavy handed title,” he then said.

Camilla title change not down to ‘popularity’

The royal expert then continued, saying: “None of the previous three Queen Consorts used it, Alexandra, Mary and Elizabeth were all known as Queen.”

“In the age of social media and the net bad habits such as calling Catherine – Kate Middleton persist,” he then said.

“It also makes sense to make a title easier to use, which is why the change is likely,” he then continued.

Richard then revealed at this point that the title change has nothing to do with popularity.

“It isn’t really linked to her personal popularity,” he said.

However, there is also another reason behind the change, according to the royal expert.

“Queen Consort Camilla sounds clunky so it will probably change,” he revealed.

“Interestingly, it gave me a chance to talk about my mum, his grandma, which I didn’t even really consider so that became the outcome of the story for him,” he then said.

“He wanted to see videos and photographs of his grandma Diana out doing her thing for landmines all those years ago. It produced a very interesting conversation between me and him, different to what I thought it would be.”
