Prince Harry lays out 'greatest challenge' facing USA, United Kingdom vets

Harry promised next year's Games would be "four really intense days of sport", while Obama quipped she must "apologize to him in advance for all the gold medals America will win".

Manspreading is a wide-legged, space-hogging male phenomenon originally pinpointed on Tumblr but often seen in its most natural habitat on the New York City subway.

Later the prince, the first lady and Mrs Biden watched a wheelchair basketball match and when their royal guest first arrived in the sports hall Mrs Obama joked with the women in the stands saying: "All right ladies, Prince Harry is here - don't pretend you didn't notice". When it happened again during his trip to the United States on Wednesday, well, let's just say our imagination started to do a few spreading of its own. Each of them is definitely to scale.

The President even jokingly said that Harry got to know Michelle Obama very well as FLOTUS and The Royal had visited the USO Warrior and Family Center at the Fort Belvoir military base in Virginia.

Harry said: "I am in no doubt that my two deployments to Afghanistan changed the direction of my life".

Prince Harry is delighted to have the enthusiastic support of the President for the 2016 Invictus Games in Orlando. "There is very little that can truly prepare you for the reality of war", the prince said. The second Invictus Games will be held in Orlando, Florida, in May 2016.

The experiences can be stark and long-lasting.

"From that moment, I knew I had a responsibility to help all veterans, who had made huge personal sacrifices for their countries, to lead healthy and dignified lives after service".

Mrs. Obama, who warmed up the crowd for Harry, took note of the excitement attached to the prince's visit, telling the crowd, "Alright ladies, Prince Harry is here". Prince Harry also attended a wheelchair basketball game with Mrs. Obama and Jill Biden, where he was seen enthusiastically cheering on the competitors.

​"It is a testament to the special relationship, the incredible bond that we share between our two countries, and that bond continues into the next generation of leadership that His Royal Highness represents", Obama said​ after speaking to the Prince.

This story was first published on CNN.com, "Prince Harry goes to Washington".
