Trooping the Colour<\/keyword> in London<\/h2>\n<\/p>\nHarry’s presence at the basketball game came on the same day the royal family took part in the annual Trooping the Colour, King Charles’ birthday parade, in London. The King, 77, was joined by Queen Camilla, Prince William, who rode horseback in the parade, as well as Kate Middleton and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, as they watched the Royal Air Force perform a ceremonial flypast. Harry, who relocated to California with wife Meghan Markle in 2020, was not expected to attend the London event.<\/p>\nHarry’s history with basketball and the Spurs<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
The Duke of Sussex, a lifelong sports fan, has attended NBA games before. In February, he and Meghan, 44, were spotted sitting next to Queen Latifah at the 75th NBA All-Star Game in Inglewood, California.While Harry has not shared who he is rooting for in this series, he has previously worked with Spurs legend David Robinson. Robinson joined Harry and Meghan in 2018 for a graduation and awards ceremony hosted at Loughborough University by Coach Core, one of the Royal Foundation’s programmes, where the pair went head to head in a game of netball before presenting awards, according to the San Antonio Express-News. <\/p>\n\n
