Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a surprise appearance on Monday night as they attended a Vancouver Canucks hockey game. The couple, who recently stepped back as senior members of the British royal family, enjoyed a date night from their box seats, cheering on the Canucks as they faced off against the San Jose Sharks.
Prince Harry arrived at the game in style, donning a black peacoat and a black jumper layered over a white button-up. He paired his ensemble with black jeans and coordinated sneakers. Meghan opted for a similar black-on-black look, wearing a crewneck sweater with high-waisted trousers. The duchess completed her outfit with minimal makeup and tousled waves, accessorizing with a gold chain necklace and a matching wristwatch.
This event marked a significant moment for Prince Harry, as he performed his first ceremonial puck drop. Coincidentally, this event took place exactly 21 years after his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, took to the ice for a ceremonial faceoff against the Canucks and Sharks.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's choice to appear in Canada comes as no surprise, as Vancouver holds a special place in their hearts. It was in 2017, during the Invictus Games, that they made their first official public appearance as a couple. Reflecting on their experience, Prince Harry shared his appreciation for the Invictus family, stating, "There is nowhere you can feel more embraced and supported than with the Invictus family. The Toronto Games were our first time out and about publicly in an official way. We were dating at the time, so it was a lot to take in, but fortunately, we were with the perfect community for that. I had always wanted to share these incredible moments with someone special, and to have Meg by my side means everything."
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's surprise attendance at the hockey game delighted fans and showcased their ongoing connection to Canada. As they continue to navigate their new roles outside of the royal family, their presence in Vancouver serves as a testament to their dedication to causes close to their hearts.
