    Meghan, Duchess of Sussex was heard screaming as she reluctantly plummeted down a hill in Whistler, Canada on a snow tube

    The royal has been in the ski-resort town for the 2025 Invictus Games alongside her husband Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex and the couple tried out some winter sports during their trip - with Harry encouraging his wife to go snow tubing down a steep slope


    A video posted on Meghan's Instagram Stories account showed her sitting in the tube at the top of the hill being given instructions before crying out: "No, no, no ... I really don't want to it."

    Harry was then heard telling her: "Come on, you'll be absolutely fine! You'll be fine," before she set off down the hill.

    Meghan could be heard screaming as she plunged down the hill while her husband laughed and yelled at her to keep her "feet up".

    Prince Harry founded the multi-sport tournament for veterans more than a decade ago and the couple attended the opening for the 2025 event on Saturday (8.02.25) in British Colombia with Meghan giving an impromptu speech in which she explained how passionate her husband is about the games.

    She said: "We just arrived a couple of hours ago and I touched Canadian soil and I went, 'feels like home.'

    "We are so excited and we also recognize most of you are probably so exhausted from how much travel you've done, how much adrenaline you have pumping, how excited you are for what is going to be one of the most outstanding, memorable, unforgettable, and connected weeks probably for you and your families.

    "We are just thrilled to be here and I would be remiss if I didn't take the opportunity to introduce someone who means a lot to me and I know means quite a lot to all of you.

    "You will see him throughout this week. You will see him at the games, you will see him probably curling with you and cheering you on at wheelchair basketball."
