Images of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry looking loved up during a Beyoncé concert have gone viral on social media.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex went to the Cowboy Carter tour at So-Fi Stadium in Los Angeles on Saturday and Meghan posted some pictures on her Instagram account.

She wrote: “About last night…. Thank you @beyonce and team for an amazing Why concert (and a very fun date night)! All love.”

Why It Matters

One picture went viral after it was reshared on X, formerly Twitter, and showed Meghan with her arms around Harry, who was wearing a cowboy hat.

The image was viewed 1.4 million times and liked 58k times after being shared with the message: “Meghan Markle and prince harry at the cowboy carter tour last night.”

What to Know

The duchess, who wore a denim dress to the concert, also shared a loved up video of Harry planting a kiss on her cheek.

It is not the first time Harry and Meghan have been to see Beyoncé live. They were pictured together at one of her concerts in 2023.

At the time, the pair were celebrating Meghan’s mother Doria Ragland‘s 67th birthday and again the gig was at SoFi Stadium on September 1, 2023.

Saturday’s concert will have come as a welcome distraction for Harry who, one week earlier, had been left reeling by the loss of a major lawsuit he filed against the U.K. government over the removal of his police protection team.

The prince had fired a new broadside against King Charles III, saying “this whole thing could be resolved through him, not necessarily by intervening but by stepping aside.”

Harry said in the aftermath that it was no long safe to bring his children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet or Meghan to Britain.

And by the time the concert came around, U.K. tabloid The Sun had just published images showing him knocking on doors, seemingly by himself, while looking for a friend in a London street.

The newspaper suggested it undermined Harry’s argument that Britain was unsafe for his family.

What People Are Saying

One reply to the post on X read, “They really look happy together” while another said: “Beautiful couple.”

Another X user wrote: “Honestly probably the most normal they’ve looked. They usually look like they’re trying to be royals still.”
