Prince Harry surprised football fans Sunday, appearing at the Grey Cup in Vancouver before the Toronto Argonauts took on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
Wearing a dark dress shirt and long, black jacket, the Duke of Sussex was interviewed by TSN’s James Duthie at the station’s sideline set, then waved at the crowd before he was quickly escorted away.
Prince Harry is in the city to promote the Invictus Games, taking place in Vancouver and Whistler from Feb. 8 to 16.
The former soldier founded the Games in 2014 as a place for wounded, injured or sick service personnel and veterans from around the world to compete in a variety of sports.
The B.C. iteration will feature winter sports for the first time, including sit-skiing, sit-snowboarding, curling, biathlon and skeleton.
More than 500 athletes from 23 nations are set to compete in the Games, which were held in Toronto in 2017.
Prince Harry visited Whistler’s famed Olympic sliding track in May and slid down it headfirst on a skeleton sled, topping speeds of 99 kilometres per hour.
Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, joined him on that trip, appearing at training events in Whistler and a dinner in Vancouver.
