Meghan Markle was all smiles as she watched new husband Prince Harry play at the Audi
Polo Cup this afternoon.
The Duchess of Sussex, beamed behind her sunglasses at Berkshire's Coworth Park Polo Club, where
temperatures soared to 27C.
Meghan, 36, made the most of the glorious sunshine wearing an elegant cream sleeveless
shirt dress and flat sandals.
She was joined by close friend Serena Williams, who is set to make her comeback from maternity
leave next week, and her husband Alex Ohanian.
Meghan even appeared to show her parental skills as she cheered up one of her friend's
children.
The young girl looked a little disinterested and tired but Meghan bent down and spoke to
her, in a bid to keep her entertained.
Meghan's attendance today marked one year after she first publicly appeared as Prince
Harry's beau.
The former Suits star – who started dating the royal in November 2016 – was pictured
getting acquainted with Harry's close friend Mark Dwyer and his wife.
Keen to impress, Meghan wore a rather formal long navy dress with a white blazer which
hung over her shoulders.
Harry was in high spirits and showed no signs of tiredness despite making a surprise appearance
at British Polo Day on Friday.
The royal raised £200,000 for the Royal Foundation and Sentebale, charities which he serves as
a patron.
Meghan's radiant appearance comes days after she appeared to break royal protocol by trying
to hold hands with Harry at Buckingham Palace.
Last time Prince Harry was at the Audi Polo Challenge all eyes were on his then girlfriend
Meghan Markle.
But today the Duchess of Sussex made a subtle entrance as she arrived in Ascot, Berkshire,
to cheer on her husband.
The royal newlyweds were also accompanied by their good friends Serena Williams and
her husband Alexis Ohanian who both attended the Royal Wedding at Windsor Castle in May.
The Duke of Sussex delighted polo fans for the second day on the trot as he wowed spectators
alongside his brother.
He and Prince William enjoyed some brotherly bonding as they took to the turf at the Coworth
Park Polo Club.
Prince Harry's appearance today comes after he thrilled sports fans at a charity match
in Oxfordshire yesterday.
Harry was seen squatting in his riding helmet following on from yesterday, when he made
a surprise appearance at British Polo Day in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire.
Friday's event, which saw Prince Harry and the US-based Valiente team take on the UAE,
raised £200,000 for the Royal Foundation and Sentebale, two charities of which he is
patron.
The night before Harry was joined by Meghan, 36, at an engagement with the Queen but his
wife chose to sit out the day at the polo.
The prince appeared in good spirits as he showed off his skills on the field alongside
leading men's polo player Adolfo Cambiaso and women's star Nina Clarkin.
The teams were competing for the Chelsea Barracks River Field Plate.
At one point Harry was seen reaching over to pat British player Clarkin, 35, on the
back after a particularly impressive move.
Meanwhile Argentina-based Cambiaso, 43, the current world number one, competed for the
UAE.
But it was Harry and Clarkin's team who triumphed and the pair were seen beaming as they posed
for photos at the end of the match.
Harry has a number of polo matches lined up this summer, giving Meghan plenty of opportunities
to watch her husband in action.
The newlyweds made their first appearance as a couple when they attended the Audi Polo
Challenge at Coworth Park, Berkshire, in May last year.
The event offered royal supporters one of the first glimpses of the now Duke and Duchess
of Sussex together when they were spotted embracing in the car park.
The outing, which saw the duchess being introduced to some of Harry's closest confidants, give
yet another sign of the seriousness of their relationship.
