The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour four years after first meeting the star, The Telegraph reported on Saturday.
Prince Harry and Meghan were seen in a private box at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on Friday with Meghan’s mom, Doria Ragland, and two friends, The Telegraph’s Victoria Ward and George Styllis reported. One of the friends appeared to be Meghan’s former “Suits” costar Abigail Spencer, according to The Independent.
The group wore coordinating silver outfits, seemingly adhering to Beyonce’s request that fans attending the show wear the color, according to The Telegraph.
In a photo published by The Telegraph, Meghan can be seen wearing a silver, sequinned pencil skirt and a white shirt while Harry wears a silver-gray shirt and blazer.
Videos of the group dancing to Beyoncé’s performance of “Love on Top” were shared by fans on social media. In one image shared to X, Ragland can be seen wearing a silver blouse, while a woman who appears to be Spencer opted for a silver disco ball dress.
“This tour has been such a joy and as we approach the last month, my birthday wish is to celebrate with you wearing your most fabulous silver fashions to the shows 8.23-9.22!” Beyoncé wrote on her Instagram stories ahead of the show, according to The Telegraph.
The group were out to celebrate Ragland’s 67th birthday, according to The Telegraph.
Beyoncé is a longtime supporter of the royal couple
Meghan has been a fan of Beyoncé’s music for several years. The duchess included the star’s music at her royal wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018. Idris Elba, who DJ’d the wedding reception, told Entertainment Tonight in 2019 that Beyoncé was included on the playlist.
It turned out that the feeling was mutual. In February 2019, Beyoncé and Jay-Z recorded their BRIT Award acceptance speech for best international group in front of a portrait of Meghan dressed as the Queen.
The two couples finally got to meet in person at the London premiere of “The Lion King” in July of that year, when Harry and Meghan were working members of the royal family. The premiere took place two months after they welcomed their first son, Archie.

“The baby, so beautiful,” Beyoncé could be heard telling the couple, the Daily Mail’s Rebecca English and Harriet Johnston reported at the time.
“The best advice I can give you, always find some time for yourself,” Jay-Z said, according to the publication.
Beyoncé and Meghan appeared to have remained friends in the four years since their first meeting, having various online interactions. In the Netflix docuseries, “Harry & Meghan,” which aired in December 2022, Meghan said the singer texted her after she and Harry were interviewed by Oprah Winfrey in 2021.
“She said she wants me to feel safe and protected,” Meghan said, appearing to read out the text to Harry in the clip. “She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability.”
Meghan added that Beyoncé told her she was “selected to break generational curses that need to be healed.”
Representatives for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not respond to a request for comment.
