Is Prince Harry a member of the Beyhive?
Although the Duke of Sussex and Meghan Markle were spotted at Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” tour Friday night, fans were quick to point out Harry’s seemingly “bored” expression.
In a viral concert photo, the “Suits” alum could be seen dancing alongside mother Doria Ragland as her husband, 38, stared into the distance with his hands in his pockets.
He was also photographed checking his phone.
The trio, who each wore silver — or gray in Harry’s case — at Queen Bey’s request, watched the show from a private box at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif.
One Twitter user accused Harry of looking as if he was “being held hostage” during the show, while another added that the Brit appeared “positively bored out of his skull.”
“Harry, the most miserable man to ever watch a Beyoncé gig,” a third wrote. “Clearly in a foul mood and doesn’t care who sees it.”
An additional Twitter user, however, noted that Harry’s glum appearance was “relatable,” writing that he looked like “any other boyfriend/husband who was made to go to a Beyonce concert.”
More fans came to the prince’s defense, including one who tweeted, “I need someone to tell me if Jay-Z smiles and jumps around for the duration of every Beyoncé concert. You peeps need to stop analy[z]ing every single thing Harry does.”
Another called it “admirable” and “sweet” of Harry to go out and celebrate Ragland’s birthday so close to the anniversary of Princess Diana’s death as “those anniversaries can be tough.”

As the user pointed out, the concert came at the intersection of two major dates in the couple’s lives.
While they went out in celebration of Ragland’s 67th birthday, the joyous occasion was just one day after the anniversary of Diana’s passing 26 years ago.
While Harry and the former actress, 42, were out in honor of Ragland, the duo also have ties to the “Crazy In Love” singer.
As Page Six previously reported, their relationship with Beyoncé can be linked back to their first meeting in 2019 at the London premiere of “The Lion King.”

Beyoncé went on to commend Markle for her “bravery” following the 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview in which she accused the royal family of racial bias.
“Thank you Meghan for your courage and leadership,” Beyoncé wrote on her website at the time. “We are all strengthened and inspired by you.”
In Harry and Markle’s December 2022 Netflix documentary, Markle disclosed that the two were texting buddies.
In one scene, Markle said the Grammy winner believed she was “selected to break generatonal curses,” adding, “She wants me to feel safe and protected. She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability.”
