Prince Harry apologized to Canada after causing controversy by wearing a Los Angeles Dodgers hat to Game 4 of the 2025 World Series. The Duke of Sussex made his apology while attending Remembrance Day events in Toronto on Thursday, November 6.
At the World Series game on October 28, Prince Harry attended with his wife, Meghan Markle, wearing an L.A. Dodgers cap. This sparked backlash from fans who expected him to support Canada's own team, the Toronto Blue Jays, instead of a U.S.-based team. Critics felt he should have backed a team from a Commonwealth country rather than one from California, where he now resides.
During a busy day of Remembrance Day commemorations, including a visit to the Veterans Centre at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Harry addressed the controversy in an interview with CTV News.
"Is there anything you would like to say about wearing that L.A. Dodgers hat last week and getting into hot water?" he was asked.
Harry responded,
“Well, firstly, I would like to apologize to Canada for wearing it.”He laughed off the incident and reaffirmed his affection for Canada despite the mix-up, saying he was under pressure when choosing his outfit.
Prince Harry clarified the hat controversy, apologized to Canadians, and emphasized his respect for the country while attending significant remembrance events.
