Meghan and Harry’s PDA is so over-the-top – she’s desperate to be Hollywood influencer


THE Invictus Games took place in Canada this week and front and centre of the event were Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s PDAs, according to royal experts.

Royal reporter Bronte Coy said the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s “kissing and hugging” was “pretty intense”, and her Instagram content was telling of Meghan’s future goals.

The joint appearance at the event held for wounded and sick service personnel and veterans, came amid claims they are now focusing on solo work projects.

Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show after the event held in Whistler and Vancouver, Bronte shared: “I think that there’s going to be an extraordinary amount of scrutiny on everything that happens with them and their relationship because of the professional separation that happened last year. 

“With that said, the PDAs were pretty intense, and we got more of a front row seat to all of these PDAs. 

“It was kissing, hugging, hand holding, just looking on surface value, at least, it certainly looked like a couple very much in love.”

The couple had been seen cosying up to one another including a bout of PDA at the opening ceremony.

Meghan and Harry embraced for a kiss in the stands as a lip-reading expert revealed the Duke gave his wife a cheeky five-word instruction.

It appeared the Sussexes couldn’t keep their hands off each other and the Duchess even rested her head on the Duke’s shoulder.

Although the Sussexes stepped back from royal duties in 2020, an etiquette expert has clarified there is no formal rule on royal family members showing affection in public. 

She told People: “Senior members of the royal family would likely not be told how to interact or when they can or cannot show PDA and would be trusted to use their better judgement as to when it’s appropriate.

“The royals often adjust PDA to mirror the formality of the event they are attending.”Bronte said that there was a key reason we saw so much of their couple interactions during the Invictus celebrations.”


She explained: “The reason we saw so much of that, to tie it in with the Instagram part, is because she was posting a lot of these moments together.”

Meghan’s Instagram comeback

The Duchess of Sussex relaunched her Instagram page on New Year’s Day with a video of her running along a beach barefoot before writing 2025 in the sand.

The unexpected clip, shared to @meghan, was her first personal online post in several years.

Bronte continued: “We’re not used to seeing this much of them behind the scenes and them being so lovey dovey, we get the photos and you get videos on engagements, but it’s very different having them joking around.

“It was so slick and polished. She was previewing the work she was doing.”

Since then, mum-of-two Meghan has also shared a video opening T-shirts donated from Billie Eilish – helped by Maroon 5 lead Adam Levine and wife Behati Prinsloo – for a family whose home was devastated in the LA wildfires.

Bronte added: “It was all very slick, but it’s gone from that to now. 

“What really is a very candid ‘here’s my life’, ‘here’s me and Harry’, ‘here’s this stuff that we’ve donated via my celebrity friends.’

“It’s very much changed in the space of six weeks.”

A body language expert even likened Meghan’s video to the style of Love Island influencer Molly-Mae Hague, with her gestures and ‘off-the-cuff’ commentary.

“Surprising people with moments that let them know I was really thinking of them.

“I’m going to share some little tips and tricks. I see what colour I gravitate to, and everything goes from there. And how you incorporate these practices every day.”

The series is reportedly being made to complement her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.
