The internet is going crazy following the pictures of Prince Harry looking miserable at Beyoncé‘s Renaissance World Tour concert at the SoFi Stadium in L.A. on Friday, September 1st, while his wife, Meghan Markle, 42, was seemingly having the time of her life! However, the Duke of Sussex, 38, was spotted looking much happier on Sunday, September 3rd, as he was in the stands at the BMO Stadium in L.A. as Miami won 3-1 against Los Angeles FC.
Prince Harry was pictured smiling and laughing with the person sitting next to him – but that person wasn’t his wife, which is perhaps why the internet thinks he was so happy! Royal fans couldn’t help but notice how much happier the father-of-two looked flying solo, and they made their opinions known throughout the internet, including a TikTok video posted by @the.royal.watcher, the account which has already given us some wonderful gems over the past few months.
“It’s nice to see him smiling and happy without MeGain,” wrote one fan, followed by the crying laughing emoji. “He was animated and looking happy because the claw was not attending!” exclaimed another, as someone else said: “They don’t seem suited at all.”

Prince Harry Looked 'So Much Happier' Without Meghan Markle In Tokyo: 'His Royal Smile Is Back'
Videos don’t seem to lie, as previous video footage from last month showed that Prince Harry was all smiles when he touched down in Tokyo on August 8th, and he seemed very happy while waving to the crowds who were at Haneda Airport to greet him. Dressed in a black polo shirt and a black Archewell baseball hat, he was heard telling reporters it was "good to see you again" when he was asked how it felt to be back in Japan for the first time in four years.
The Duke of Sussex flew to Japan to attend the International Sports Promotion Society Sports Values Summit, which took place on Wednesday, August 9th, while Meghan was at home in Montecito, California with their two children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2.
While he was at the summit, Prince Harry even met members of the Stellenbosch University Choir backstage, and confessed to being a "big fan" – a moment which was shared on the choir’s official Twitter account. Aww!

Prince Harry also attended his fundraising Sentebale Polo Cup match at the Singapore Polo Club in Singapore on the Saturday, alongside Argentinian polo star Ignacio 'Nacho' Figueras, which is in aid of providing psychosocial support to young people living with HIV.
Speaking about the event the month before, Harry said: "The annual Polo Cup is essential to Sentebale’s vital work ensuring children and young people are healthy, resilient, and able to thrive. The funds raised this year will support our clubs and camps program, which provides intensive psychosocial support to young people living with HIV." He added: "In a time where being HIV positive is no longer a death sentence, we are empowering young people to know their status, stay healthy, and eliminate the stigma so that they can break the cycle."
