The video shows the couple attending the annual Commonwealth Day church service at Westminister Abbey in the UK on March 9, 2020. In the video, the Duchess of Sussex can be seen interacting with members of the royal family.
The video has been viewed over five million times on TikTok and many have speculated that the interaction between Meghan and Sophie, now the Duchess of Edinburgh, appeared awkward.
In one clip, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are seen sitting next to Prince Edward, now the Duke of Edinburgh, chatting and laughing with Harry's uncle.
Meanwhile, Sophie, who is sitting next to her husband Edward, appears to be looking in the opposite direction and not engaging with the couple at all. In another clip, Sophie continues to look away from Meghan but then turns around and appears to make eye contact with Harry's wife.

Some people in the comment section have interpreted the interaction as awkward and claimed that Meghan looks "rattled" or "scared" by the encounter.
Royal expert and historian Robert Lacey, who is a consultant for the Netflix series ‘The Crown’, has claimed that Harry may have been upset during his last royal engagement during the 2020 Commonwealth Day.
