Prince Harry and Meghan Markle bowled over the German media with their charm offensive on the first day they were seen together at the Invictus Games.

Only positive headlines are being used to describe the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, such as ‘Finally A Prince Again’, with much of the attention focused on Meghan and how she reacts to the crowds and what she wears.

There have yet to be negative comments about their public appearances, including when they attended a wheelchair basketball match.

The couple’s often contentious relationship with the other members of the royal family has not been mentioned in any of the coverage.

While in Dusseldorf, all the attention was on Harry and Meghan and the impact they are having at the games for disabled and wounded military veterans, which the Prince founded in 2014.

‘I think people are very interested to see how they are together and their dynamics as a couple,’ said one reporter for Bild newspaper.

‘They are very popular here. You only have to see how hundreds of people waited in the market square outside the town hall to try and see them. It was the same the previous year when they came to start the countdown to the games.’

In the Merkur Spiel Arena the couple put on an obvious show of affection which has been picked up by the German media.

Another publication centred on and speculated about a $64,000 ring Meghan wore during an event for friends and family where she gave an impromptu speech.

The popular Gala magazine website devoted five stories to the couple as well as carrying a live blog to update readers on their activities.

Harry’s biggest coup was to be invited on to the hugely popular show ‘Sports Studio’ – the German equivalent of the BBC’s Match of the Day.

Meanwhile, the Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen (ZDF) network devoted the entire hour-long show to allow Harry to talk about the Invictus Games and its impact on the mental health and rehabilitation of wounded war veterans.

He proved to be a good sport, but not very good in a penalty taker, when he lost in a shoot-out with German defence minister Boris Pistorios.

German media carried reports about Harry’s TV appearance with obvious references to the age old rivalry between the England and German football teams.
