Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Romantic Kiss Goes Viral

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle delighted fans on Friday after exchanging a congratulatory kiss on the winners podium of a charity polo match in Wellington, Florida.

The duke and duchess traveled east from their home in Montecito, California, for the Royal Salute Polo Challenge at the Grand Champions Polo Club on April 12, where Harry led the Royal Salute Sentebale team to victory.

The round robin tournament was held to benefit the prince’s Sentebale charity, which he co-founded in 2006 with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to provide support for young people in the Lesotho and Botswana, including those affected by HIV and AIDS.

Also playing in the tournament was Harry’s close polo pal Nacho Figueras, with his wife Delfina spotted on the sidelines keeping Meghan company, along with other friends of the couple, including tennis pro Serena Williams.

Uploaded to TikTok by user meghmarkle, on April 13, footage of Meghan climbing the steps of the winners podium at the event before presenting Harry with the team trophy and a kiss has gone viral, gaining over 1.5 million views on the social media site, so far.

Captioned “THAT KISS,” the video clip has received in excess of 196,000 likes and over 400 comments, many of which have praised the couple and their touching public display of affection.

“The shoulder movement before the kiss,” wrote one TikTok user.

“Awww, sweetest royal couple on the planet! My faves I love you Prince Harry and Meghan,” posted another fan, with a further comment reading: “She looks like a princess.”

Harry and Meghan’s Florida appearance came just one day after the couple announced they are working on two brand new shows for Netflix, with one based on a behind-the-scenes look at the sport of competitive polo.

“Known primarily for its aesthetic and social scene, the series will pull the curtain back on the grit and passion of the sport, capturing players and all it takes to compete at the highest level,” a press release from Archewell Productions (Harry and Meghan’s content creation business) said.

The second show will be “curated” by Meghan, with a focus on her loves of “cooking & gardening, entertaining, and friendship.”
