Meghan Markle is sending Prince Harry her love!
On Tuesday, Sept. 9, the 44-year-old Duchess of Sussex reposted a playful moment between her husband, 40, and a young fan from footage shot during his trip home to the U.K. for the 20th Anniversary WellChild Awards Ceremony.
In the clip, Prince Harry is seen pretending to fence with Gwen Foster, 9, who was born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus. The two playfully go at it with bright yellow swords made of balloons.
Markle added a pair of pink hearts to her Instagram Stories video, which was previously shared by Hello! magazine’s TikTok account.
“Prince Harry is in his element at the WellChild awards! 🥹👑,” the outlet captioned the post from the flagship event for the charity he’s backed as patron since 2007, which benefits seriously ill children.
Harry also visited Nottingham, England, on Tuesday.
The location is one that holds significance for him and the Suits actress as days after their December 2017 engagement, he brought her to meet residents during their first official joint royal duty.
While at the WellChild Awards this week, Harry revealed what he and Meghan — who live in Montecito, Calif., with their children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4 — have been streaming at home, and it may come as a surprise to some.
Though his wife’s Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, is now in its second season, it isn’t the only series that gets them excited.

He told 13-year-old Grace Tutt, a Special Recognition winner who uses a wheelchair following a bus crash, that he and Meghan have been watching the political thriller Hostage as well as the reality dating show Love Is Blind.
Chef José Andrés appears in episode two of With Love, Meghan, where he jokingly calls out the prince for not being fond of one of the dishes mentioned on the show.
“You know who doesn’t like lobster? My husband,” Meghan told her guest.
“And you married him anyway?” Andrés quipped in response.

The royal family has historically avoided eating shellfish, especially when attending royal events or tours, due to health concerns. And in November 2022, King Charles confirmed to animal rights group PETA that foie gras (a luxury food made from the fattened liver of a duck or goose) was banned from all royal residences due to the unethical way it is produced.
Despite their differences in diet, she still remembers their first anniversary dinner, which was held at a nontraditional dining venue — an “old chapel.”

They also recalled the couple requesting fried chicken, which the renowned chef referred to as an “off-menu item.”
