So, Bro... how’s it all going with Meghan?

Obama quizzes Harry at games in Canada

- From Charlotte Wace

HE WAS until recently the most powerful man in the world.

But as former US president Barack Obama took his seat beside Prince Harry at the Invictus Games, he wanted to ask the same question as everyone else: how’s it going with Meghan?

Mr Obama was seen enjoying a warm, lively chat with the prince as they took their seats courtside on Friday for the wheelchair basketball in Toronto.

The MoS has learned how the ex-president quizzed Harry about girlfriend Meghan Markle, the actress who stars in the TV series Suits, currently filming in the city. Canadian student Hayley Stover was sitting beside the pair and afterwards described how she had heard them talking. Ms Stover, 18, said: ‘I did hear Obama ask about Meghan and Harry just let him know she had been to watch the tennis with him. I think he asked if she was enjoying the games too. Harry was really smiling when he said it. He looked really happy, it was cute.’

The body language of the former president and the prince suggested the conversati­on was relaxed and informal, and a reminder of the revelation by David Cameron that Obama had called him ‘Bro’. In private, Harry, 32, and Meghan have been keeping things hot – with spicy butter chicken curries from room service at his luxurious 2,470sq.ft Royal Suite at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel. With secret tunnels and multiple entrances, the building is perfect for Meghan to slip in incognito.

Last night, Meghan had been tipped to show up for the starstudde­d close of the Games.
