Just as you thought Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan had the star power covered for the Sydney Invictus Games in October, it has now been shared that we have more royalty in town for the coveted event.

First up, all the way from Denmark are Crown Princess Mary and her husband Crown Prince Frederik.

If two pairs of royals isn’t enough, we’d like to bring to the stage Victoria and David Beckham.

We sail back in time to look back at the Australian-born royal’s last home visit!

Here’s hoping the entire family come Down Under.

David and Victoria Beckham are also expected to attend the highly-anticipated event.

The Daily Telegraph reported the exciting news.

Should we see Princess Mary, this will be her second time in her home country in less than a year.

We last saw the future Danish queen when Mary and Frederik brought their four kids down for Christmas, where they spent time in Tasmania and Sydney.

Mary and her husband took to the sea during their last visit.

Australia can’t wait for their royal guests.

Meanwhile David Beckham, who is an ambassador for the games – an event for wounded soldiers -, is said to be joined by his wife Victoria and their children Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, Cruz, 13 and seven-year-old Harper.

The exciting sporting competition will be a huge moment for Meghan and Harry – it will be be there very first overseas royal tour as a married couple.

And David is very excited to be apart of the team.

Earlier this year he that he “couldn’t wait to be a part of the energy and excellence of the Games this year”.

“I’ve been lucky enough to meet and work with many serving, veteran and wounded British armed forces personnel over the years and I’ve been humbled by the courage, resilience and spirit shown by each and every one of them.

“The entire Invictus Games team, led by the Duke of Sussex, has achieved remarkable things in such a short space of time, using sport as a powerful force to rehabilitate and unite.”
