A royal commentator has claimed that Harry is “furious” that Mike Tindall has been “given a high position” at the Invictus Games.
Harry helped set up the games in 2014 – but Levin told GB News that the sporting event has become “too royal” because of the Duke of Sussex and his wife Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex.
Speaking to Isabel Webster and Eamonn Holmes this morning Levin said: “Mike Tindall, who is the husband of Zara, the King’s niece, has been given a high position to do something about the Invictus Games.
“I think Harry is absolutely furious about this. It has been announced, but very quietly.

“Some people say they want Harry because he’s the beginning of the whole Invictus Games, and other people say that it would be delightful that they don’t do all this nonsense and they don’t want Meghan making speeches. They don’t want her leading marches.
“She did lead people who were in winning last year, and she walked as if she was at a dress show and they were walking behind her looking very angry because she doesn’t really know very much about the army and the military.”

Levin also claimed that a royal reconciliation between Harry and the rest of the family was unlikely to happen due to Harry “rushing off” to be with Meghan after the games.
The royal biographer said: “He won’t be going to see his father or brother. It’s said that he won’t be here for very long.
“Meghan is going to go straight to Africa because she met the Nigerian group and she likes that, so he’ll be whizzing off.
“He won’t see anybody, but he’s no longer very popular. For the last couple of years I have had lots of emails from people saying, ‘can’t you stop it?'”

The duke was reportedly also considering making his appearance via a video link amid security concerns, but it has now been reported he will be appearing in person.
He recently lost a bid to appeal his case against the Home Office over police protection which left him without the automatic right to use the royal security services.
His claim for better protection was dismissed in February after years of legal wrangling.
Harry is said to remain committed to the Invictus Games and its participants after he founded the event in 2014 in partnership with the Ministry of Defence.

Some commentators have questioned whether Prince Harry will visit the Princess of Wales during his potential visit to the UK.
Kate, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer, had a very close friendship with the Duke of Sussex before his departure to the US.
Harry now lives in California with his wife Meghan and their two children.
