“She has the right to go to Dusseldorf but featuring her so much is effectively stealing the spotlight from the games, which is a wasted opportunity.
“Meghan is quite dominant, Harry had a bit of charisma before she arrived, but when Meghan arrives, things tend to change a bit.
“Especially with this gesture when she’s a bit bored. It was a running joke at first, but it’s happened so many times through the past three years, we know Harry completely changes when she’s around.
“She begins with a tap on the back, then she grabs him and begins to pull him away. That’s what she does.”
