In an eventful day at a charity polo match in Palm Beach, Miami, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were spotted together, accompanied by a Netflix camera crew. The couple, who have recently signed a deal with Netflix, were participating in the Royal Salute Polo challenge, which is part of their upcoming polo-themed show for the streaming platform. The presence of the cameras added an extra layer of excitement to the event.
The star-studded gathering saw the likes of tennis legend Serena Williams joining the duo. Serena, a close friend of Meghan's, watched the games from the team tent and later accompanied Meghan onto the field for the trophy ceremony. The three women appeared happy and content after a long day spent enjoying the polo matches under the warm sun.
Interestingly, it was revealed by a source close to Serena Williams's mother, Oracene Price, that Meghan had allegedly paid $2,000 to ensure Serena's attendance at the event. According to reports, Serena's presence was orchestrated by Megan's PR agency, WME, as a way to support Meghan and to gain media attention. However, despite their on-camera interactions, insiders claimed that Serena's involvement was more transactional than genuinely rooted in friendship.
Cameras captured Serena's discomfort and apparent unfamiliarity with the polo match, as she seemed somewhat lost during the event. The source further suggested that Serena's attendance was primarily related to the charitable nature of the polo match and the publicity it could generate. The insider described their friendship as a "very transactional" one, with Serena's presence serving as a means to promote the polo event and connect with other polo wives.
While Megan's involvement in the polo documentary was apparent, with her presenting awards on stage, body language expert Judy James noted a difference in confidence between Meghan and Prince Harry. James observed that Harry appeared at ease in his element, while Meghan seemed slightly less assured, particularly in the paddock before the match started. Her folded arms and reliance on holding onto Harry were interpreted as signs of slightly diminished confidence.
The overall scene at the polo match captured the attention and curiosity of onlookers, with the presence of Netflix cameras adding an intriguing layer to the proceedings. Despite the scrutiny and controversies surrounding the event, it remains to be seen how the footage will be presented in their upcoming Netflix show.
