Meghan, 44, and Harry, 41, previously made a high-profile outing to a sports event in October, when they attended the 2025 World Series.

At the time, the couple was among the crowd at Dodger Stadium watching the game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers. They both wore blue hats in support of the California-based MLB team.
