Meghan Markle Gave an Impromptu Speech at Invictus Games Closing Ceremony, and Nailed It

Like any great public speaker, Meghan illustrated her point with a concrete example. “The Novak family from Chicago is a prime example of this very thing,” she said. “When their son Ryan suffered a severe injury leaving him paralyzed from the waist down, doctors said he would never be able to walk again.” 

“But after speaking to his mom, Karri, it was clear that it was through Ryan’s strength of spirit, and with the unwavering support of his parents, that he was able to prove all of those doctors wrong,” Meghan added.

She concluded her emotional speech about how Ryan’s motivation truly touched her last week. “Not only has Ryan competed in sailing, swimming and athletics this week, but when Harry and I saw him at the finish line of the sailing competition, he literally jumped into our boat — with dexterity and ease, by the way — to give both of us a hug.”

“Seeing Ryan’s mom on the water that day, waving a flag to cheer him on was a moment I will never forget,” she said, wrapping up her address to the spectators. 

Another memorable Invictus Games ceremony complete, thanks to Harry and Meghan!
