Prince Harry surprised Team GB during their final training camp for the Invictus Games. The Prince of Wales, who lives in California, expressed his support for the British squad.
On April 6, the video of Harry’s talk with the players was published on Twitter by Help for Heroes, a British organisation that provides lifelong recovery support to British Armed Forces service men who have been wounded or injured in the line of duty.
Under responses, hundreds of trolls targeted Prince Harry, leading the charity to respond on April 8.
“We recognise that Twitter encourages open & free speech. This tweet was to celebrate a moment special to Team UK, however there are some comments that are spoiling this.”
On twitter, the official account of “Help for Heroes” wrote, “As owner of the account we have the right to restrict or remove replies especially if comments run the risk of upsetting our veterans. We kindly ask you to think about what you are commenting and the impact this could have on those reading it.”
The tweet also added, “We accept many of you will have different opinions and will want to share them – we welcome that. But we will not accept offensive, trolling comments or comments aimed at our team. This is NOT what the tweet is about.”
Ahead of the @InvictusGamesNL #TeamUK received a very special surprise from the founding patron Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex!
