Prince Harry apologises to Canada for wearing LA Dodgers cap at World Series
Prince Harry has apologised to Canada for wearing a Los Angeles Dodgers cap while attending a World Series game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Duke of Sussex and his wife, Meghan, were pictured at the baseball game last Tuesday, where Toronto lost to the Dodgers in a seventh-game decider on Sunday.
Reason behind wearing the cap
Speaking to Canadian broadcaster CTV, Prince Harry said he wore the Dodgers merchandise "under duress."
"Firstly, I would like to apologise to Canada for wearing it. Secondly, I was under duress. There wasn't much choice."
He joked, "When you're missing a lot of hair on top, and you're sitting under floodlights, you'll take any hat that's available."
The prince explained that it felt like "the polite thing to do" after being invited to the dugout by the Dodgers' owner.
Support for the teams
He emphasized his loyalty to the Blue Jays during the earlier games:
"Game five, game six, game seven, I was Blue Jays throughout."
He added that admitting his cap choice might make it difficult to return to Los Angeles.
