To be honest dinner conversations was the worst bit about being a child and listening to the boring people around me.

There’s a lot of times that both myself and my brother wish, obviously, that we were just completely normal.

There’s no way I’m going to put myself through Sandhurst and then sit on my arse back home while my boys are out fighting for their country.

I've served my country.

You can imagine the kind of dinner parties I had to go to at a young age... pretty dull.

I have witnessed first-hand how the power of sport can positively impact the lives of wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women in their journey of recovery. The Invictus Games will focus on what they can achieve post-injury and celebrate their fighting spirit, through an inclusive sporting competition that recognises the sacrifice they have made. I am extremely proud that we are bringing an event like this to the UK for the first time and believe it can have a long-lasting impact on the well-being of those who have served their nations so bravely.

You've got to give something back. You can't just sit there.
