Prince Harry celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games at an event in London, but the royal family was not in attendance.
On Wednesday, the 39-year-old Duke of Sussex marked the tournament’s milestone during a service of thanksgiving held at St. Paul’s Cathedral, the church where his parents, King Charles III and the late Princess Diana, married in 1981.
In 2014, Harry founded the Invictus Games, a multi-sport event for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women. The first Invictus Games were held in September 2014 at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Meanwhile, Charles and senior royal family members attended a garden party at Buckingham Palace two miles away after it was announced that the monarch would not be able to meet with his son while Harry is in the U.K.
