The Duchess of Sussex showed off her adventurous side as she tried her hand at tubing her final morning in Canada with Prince Harry.
In videos shared by the Duchess on Instagram Stories, she’s seen nervously sitting in an inflatable tube waiting to go down a steep slope.
Meghan is heard asking the instructor for tips, before squealing: “No, no, I really don’t want to do it!”
Full of encouragement, Harry reassures his wife: “You’ll be absolutely fine, you’ll be fine.”
As the instructor gently pushes the Duchess in the tube, the crowd behind her cheers, with Meghan shrieking as she slides down the slope.
And Prince Harry had a priceless reaction to his wife’s challenge.

After joining the friends and family tubing event at the Invictus Games in Whistler, Meghan is now set to return to Montecito in California to be reunited with the couple’s children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.
A source close to Invictus said: “This was always planned. Meghan is going home to be with her children.
“Meghan left the games in Dusseldorf early after five days to go home.
“This is Prince Harry’s event and she is there to support him but this was planned.”
Meanwhile, the Duke of Sussex is expected to remain at the Games until the closing ceremony on Sunday.
As Harry presented medals at the Alpine Skiing and Snowboarding Novice Finals, he was heard talking about his own funny tubing experience.
“I had a race against Hamish, one of the Aussie competitors’ sons,” Harry revealed
Laughing, he added: “He challenged me, $10, I said, ‘Can we just race for fun instead?'”
