Prince Harry Flirts With Swimmer Elizabeth Marks at Invictus Games: Is It Love???
Whether he likes it or not, everyone is always on royal wife watch on Prince Harry’s behalf.
If he so much as speaks to a girl, it’s automatically assumed they’re dating.
Last week, Harry admitted that finding love has been nothing short of a challenge.
“If or when I do find a girlfriend, I will do my utmost . . . to ensure that me and her can get to the point where we’re actually comfortable with each other before the massive invasion that is inevitably going to happen into her privacy,” the prince told the Sunday Times.
“The other concern is that even if I talk to a girl, that person is then suddenly my wife, and people go knocking on her door.”
On May 11th, Harry awarded Sgt. Elizabeth Marks, 25, with a gold medal after she won the 100m freestyle at the 2016 Invictus Games
Marks, who People confirms is married, gave the medal back to the prince, asking him to give it to Papworth Hospital in England, where doctors saved her life in 2014.
In September of that year, shortly before the start of the first Invictus Games in London, Marks all of a sudden was struck with a lung condtion so serious that doctors had to put her in a medically induced coma.
“I landed in London and became very ill very rapidly, I was in hospital in London and went into respiratory distress syndrome, they shipped a team down from Papworth who put me on to ECMO [extracorporeal membrane oxygenation] life support and that ultimately saved my life,” Marks told reporters at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports in Orlando, FL.
“And when they did so I was on it for 10 days and ended up waking in an army hospital in Germany having no idea what had happened.
“But they absolutely saved my life and I can’t thank the UK enough for having that kind of medical support and taking such good care of me.”
So, Marks explained, she decided to give Harry one of the medals she’s won at the games in the hopes that it will find its way back to Papworth.”
Marks, who has served in the Army since she was 17, injured her hip in 2010, leaving her with no sensation in her left leg.
Fortunately, the Arizona native was able to regain her strength and still serves in the military.
