Prince Harry proved that he has a need for speed on Thursday as he hurtled down the slopes in Whistler in Canada on a bob sled.
The prince and Meghan Markle spent two days on Blackcomb mountain to film footage to promote the inclusion of winter sports in The Invictus Games for the first time.

First up was trialing a sit-ski on Wednesday but that was just the warm up act!
The following day Harry was raring to go and flew down the slopes daredevil style on a bob sled with Meghan watching on and beaming with pride.
The Duchess was on hand to personally film ever second of Harry’s race and was seen smiling and laughing in amazing at the footage.

Meghan was dressed for the elements in a thick puffer jacket and and black jeans with a coordinating hat and chunky wool scarf to guard against the chills but she was so absorbed in the proceedings that she didn’t appear to mind the cold and didn’t even bother wearing gloves.
Pictures from the day show her leaning over filming presumably Harry’s daring stunt and the couple were seen walking hand in hand after the race.
The outing comes as the row over their use of their royal title and surname for their rebranded website sussex.com.

Typically the use of a royal title for commercial gain is forbidden.
One insider spoke out as the website was unveiled saying ‘They are going to have real trouble with the use of Sussex. It’s a royal title and if there is any hint of commercialism about this it will be shut down. It’s just staggering they cannot see how gauche it is,’ to The Daily Mail.

A representative for the couple argued back that Sussex is the Meghan and Harry’s surname.
Then came the news that the couple were changing their children Archie and Lilibet’s surname from Mountbatten-Windsor to Sussex.

As they threaded the slopes on Thursday, their representative defiantly told The Mirror that they ‘will not be broken.’
The couple will remain in Canada until Friday afternoon when they will travel home to see their children.
