It was a moment that didn’t help the image of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. In 2020, shortly after their move to Los Angeles following Megxit, the Sussexes appeared at a high-profile social event. They made a notable appearance on the red carpet of The Lion King premiere. But Archie and Lilibet’s parents weren’t just there to enjoy the festivities—they used the opportunity to promote themselves.
“Next time, if anyone needs additional voiceovers, we can make ourselves available,” Prince Harry said to the gathered stars. Meghan Markle added, “That’s really why we’re here, to present our projects.” Their forwardness didn’t go unnoticed by everyone. Near the interaction stood Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z. The pop icon seemed to grimace slightly before covering her face with her hands, a reaction that didn’t escape the scrutiny of the internet.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry: Public Embarrassment on the Red Carpet
Internet users were quick to comment on the awkward exchange. “Beyoncé scratched her nose and looked embarrassed for them,” observed one person. “Look at Beyoncé! She KNOWS what’s going on and she and Mr. Carter have to pretend to be nice until the Sussexes leave,” noted another. “This is so funny. Beyoncé and Jay-Z are not interested in Meghan!” exclaimed another user. Despite the cringeworthy moment, Beyoncé did engage in a conversation with Meghan Markle.
Queen B spoke fondly with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry about their son Archie. “Your baby is so beautiful,” she reportedly told the Duchess of Sussex. Meghan was visibly touched by Beyoncé’s kind words. Moreover, Beyoncé later expressed her admiration for Meghan on her website. “Thank you Meghan for your courage and leadership qualities. We are all stronger and inspired by you,” wrote the singer, adding a touch of grace to the otherwise awkward situation.

Beyoncé: A Pillar of Support for the Sussexes
Beyoncé’s public support has been invaluable to Meghan and Harry, especially after their tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, where they discussed their tumultuous years within the British Royal Family. Although they don’t frequently appear together, the Sussexes and Beyoncé seem to share a genuine bond.
As many of their friends distanced themselves, the singer’s support became increasingly crucial. “With almost all of her other famous friends distancing themselves, Meghan is worried about seeing their network in Hollywood collapse,” an insider recently told Heat Magazine. “Beyoncé is the best known of the few stars who still want to be associated with her. She feels she needs her support to save the Sussex brand.” Meghan might be hoping that Beyoncé remains steadfast in her affection for the couple.
