Prince Harry made an unannounced visit to Ukraine on April 10 to meet with war victims and wounded veterans, his latest solo appearance amid growing speculation about his marriage to Meghan Markle. The trip, part of his ongoing work with the Invictus Games Foundation, comes as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to pursue increasingly separate public engagements.
The Duke, who served in the British Army for a decade and completed two tours in Afghanistan, visited the Superhumans Center in Lviv, a medical facility that provides free prosthetics, reconstructive surgery, and psychological support to military and civilian victims of war. According to his spokesperson, the visit was organized through his work with the Invictus Games Foundation and was not announced publicly until after his departure from Ukraine.
"A member of the British royal family visited Ukraine for the first time since the start of the full-scale war - and he came to us at @superhumans.center!" wrote Superhumans founder Stavnitser Andrey on social media. "@princeharryofengland founded @weareinvictusgames in 2014 - a sports competition for injured veterans."
Prince Harry toured the facility alongside four veterans affiliated with Invictus Games, observing rehabilitation services firsthand. "To come here to the Superhumans centre and see the incredible, amazing rehabilitation and care that is provided here under one roof, which is designed specifically for this purpose, is just astounding," Harry said, as quoted by the center.
The surprise visit, while aligned with his longstanding commitment to wounded service members, has fueled renewed speculation about the state of his marriage. "Harry heading out on his own again only adds fuel to the fire regarding his impending divorce," a source told RadarOnline. "He and Meghan used to do everything together, they were a real force."
Observers have noted a shift in the couple's public profile over the past year. Harry has increased his solo philanthropic trips, including stops in New York, London, and Africa, while Markle has remained in the U.S., developing her wellness brand and preparing new media projects.
"They used to appear as a united front," the source said. "But now their schedules are noticeably separate."
The Superhumans Center praised the Duke's presence, emphasizing his decision to advocate for injured veterans. "Deepest respect - it is difficult to add anything more to a person who can afford any occupation in this world, but chose to devote himself to supporting and encouraging veterans who were wounded," the clinic stated.
Harry's humanitarian work, particularly with injured veterans, has been a cornerstone of his post-royal identity. But his solo appearances-absent Markle-have continued to raise questions about a potential rift. "It's over with Meghan," one headline from RadarOnline declared, though neither Harry nor Markle has publicly commented on the rumors.
