The couple made headlines with their lavish arrival at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel, where they reportedly stayed in a luxury suite that costs $5,000 a night.
The suite features floor-to-ceiling windows, a private terrace and a cocktail menu that includes a drink called the “Dirty Harry” (a vodka concoction with ginger and pickles). While the name may evoke Clint Eastwood, it’s clear that the suite is designed to impress. But at $5,000 a night, who will foot the bill? The Invictus Games will reportedly cover the costs of their stay, including room service, meals and other expenses.
The nine-day Invictus Games begin tomorrow and all eyes are on Harry and Meghan as they make their first public appearance together since their recent media controversy. The event, which honors wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women, has previously been held in cities including London, Orlando and Sydney. This year’s edition in Vancouver promises to be the biggest yet, with a sold-out crowd of 40,000.
While Harry is set to deliver a heartfelt speech at the opening ceremony, Meghan’s presence is equally anticipated. However, it’s her meticulous approach to fashion that has sparked much conversation. Known for her impeccable style, Meghan reportedly spends hours getting ready, often changing outfits multiple times before settling on the perfect look.
When it comes to fashion, Meghan’s influence on brands – dubbed the “Meghan Effect” – has been well documented. From her Strathberry handbag that sold out in 11 minutes to her strategic investments in emerging brands, Meghan has turned her fashion choices into a lucrative business opportunity. This is in stark contrast to Kate Middleton’s approach, where the “Kate Effect” boosted sales for British designers without any financial investment from the Princess of Wales.
