On day six of the Invictus Games, Meghan Markle\u00a0adds her signature to a huge tribute wall filled with names – she chooses to place hers directly above a giant ‘Diana’ message.<\/p>\n
The Duchesses’ well known ‘M’ is written very near where a fan has already written the name of the late Princess of Wales.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the early days of her acting career, Meghan earned extra money by doing calligraphy – this is evident by the flare used to write her swirly ‘M’ today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The wall appears to be packed with colourful signatures, well-wishes and notes of encouragement from those attending and participating in the competition.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One reads: ‘Bonne chance’ meaning ‘good luck’ in French – while another says: ‘We can’t wait to host you all in 2025!’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Earlier today, Meghan and Harry attended a reception thrown by the Canadian delegation to promote the 2025 Invictus Games that will feature winter sports for the first time.<\/p>\n

The Duke and Duchess arrive to watch sitting volleyball at the Merkur Spiel-Arena today<\/p>\n
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex chatted with members of the committee that will be organising the games to be held in Vancouver.<\/p>\n
The Governments of Canada and British Columbia have pledged to spend almost \u00a320m to stage the games in February 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And for the first-time adaptive winter sports including alpine skiing, Nordic skiing and curling will be included in the programme of weeklong events and staged in the resort of Whistler.<\/p>\n
Officials have said the local indigenous population are being consulted over the planning of the games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For the reception Meghan wore a sleeveless grey dress which was one of three outfits she sported today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meghan’s first look of the day was a muted outfit. She wore a matching cream playsuit from Zara and a Celine blazer as she signed her initial.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her final look which she wore to the volleyball final was a flowing navy shirt dress.<\/p>\n
The multiple outfit changes could be because it was a special day – the Duke’s 39th birthday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After it was announced it was Harry’s birthday during a sitting volleyball match, the crowd sang Happy Birthday\u00a0in English and German.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Harry clapped along and smiled next to the Duchess \u2013 before he mouthed ‘thank you’ to the spectators.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was ushered on to the court where he fist bumped the games mascot called Teddy before a cake featuring a miniature figure with ginger hair.<\/p>\n
Harry was later presented with a birthday cake by the Mayor of Dusseldorf, Dr Stephen Keller. The cake was in the colours of the Invictus Games with the words: ‘Happy Birthday Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last night the couple celebrated with bratwurst sausages, wiener schnitzels and beers in a traditional German bar.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex enjoyed a night out in Dusseldorf with friends as the Invictus Games draws to a close.<\/p>\n
Bar staff said the royals were ‘lovely’ and left a ‘big tip’ as they enjoyed plates piled high with red cabbage and mashed potato. While Harry celebrated with six half-pints, his wife stuck to just one small drink.<\/p>\n
