Queen Elizabeth, Prince Harry and the Obamas appear in a hilarious promo video on the Invictus Games [Watch]
The clip showed Michelle and Barack Obama challenging the royals and the Queen gamely responding
Prince Harry will be coming to Florida in May 2016 to promote the Invictus Games. He recently had his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, appear in a funny promo video for the upcoming event.
To make things more interesting, the Obamas were in the spoof clip, initially accepting Prince Harry’s challenge to give it their all at the Invictus Games. President Obama warned the prince to be careful about what he wished for.
“Hey, Prince Harry. Remember when you told us to bring it at the Invictus Games?” asked Michelle. The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) tweeted the video on the Kensington Palace’s Twitter page.
The redhead prince was happy to oblige in the pending trash talk.
“Wow @FLOTUS and @POTUS, some @weareinvictus fighting talk there! You can dish it out, but can you take it? – H.,” Harry tweeted back.
The video started with Prince Harry and Queen Elizabeth spending some time together in the royal living room. The prince seemed to be explaining an Invictus Games pamphlet to his grandmother. Suddenly, his phone rings due to a tweet from the White House. He shared the message from the Obamas to the queen.
“Oh, really. Please!” the Queen of England smiled.
Prince Harry turned to the camera and motioned his hand as if dropping off a bomb, CNN writes.
“Boom!” he said, as if confirming that they were not intimidated in anyway by America’s warnings.
Prince Harry will arrive in Florida on May 5, 2016. He will be in the US for a week to support the British team in the Paralympic-style event, featuring wounded service personnel.
He described the event as an “emotional rollercoaster.” He said that the event will not be about feeling sorry for the disabled servicemen. It was supposed to honor the people who risked their lives serving their nation.
The Telegraph says that there will be over 500 competitors from various countries around the globe, competing in 10 events. Michelle Obama will be at the event. There will also be several others who will participate, including former US president George W. Bush, who will hold a symposium, singers James Blunt and Laura Wright, and actor Morgan Freeman, among others.
More updates and details on the Invictus Games are expected soon.
