The 'Invictus Games' are an athletic competition, held for wounded military personnel and veterans and will be held in Orlando, Florida. Invictus Games' are an athletic competition, held for wounded military personnel and veterans and will be held in Orlando, Florida.
The video shows Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Harry taking a look at the program of participating athletes when Prince Harry's phone starts buzzing to the tune of 'Hail to the Chief'. When he checks it, it's a message from the First Lady of The United States (FLOTUS) Michelle Obama.

Engaging in friendly banter, President Barack Obama warns Prince Harry, "Careful what you wish for." Army personnel behind him make faces and there is mic drop from one of them.
After receiving the message from the leader of the free world, Prince Harry had to come up with a response, after all it's a matter bigger than drowning some tea in Boston Harbour.

Prince Harry brought in the big gun of British Royals, Queen Elizabeth II, who gave us all a lesson on how to mic drop like a Queen.
Unfortunately for you @FLOTUS and @POTUS I wasn't alone when you sent me that video - H.https://t.co/sjfSQvkzb6
