Prince Harry Looks Beyond Bored At Beyonce
Yawn. The Duke of Sussex couldn’t hide his boredom at Beyonce’s concert. And Prince Harry didn’t really try to pretend that he enjoyed himself as he accompanied his wife Meghan Markle to a stop on Beyonce’s Renaissance tour.
Pics that went viral via Page Six showed Harry staring into the distance with a glazed expression amid the concert.

However, Meghan happily danced to the music next to her mother Doria Ragland. But while Markle pranced, her 38-year-old hubby checked his phone in their private box at the stadium. And though Doria, Meghan, and Harry all obeyed Beyonce’s request that her audience don silver or gray, the Duke of Sussex looked like he he wanted to be anywhere but at a concert.
As a result, social media united to mock him. For instance, one critic called out Harry for appearing that he had been “held hostage” during the show. And another shared that the Duke of Sussex looked “positively bored out of his skull.” But some went even further in dragging Harry over his gloomy expressions.
Prince Harry Becomes ‘Most Miserable Man’ At A Concert
And though pop culture doesn’t give out awards, some observers felt that Harry deserved one for becoming “the most miserable man to ever watch a Beyonce gig. Clearly in a foul mood and doesn’t care who sees it,” shared one critic. But another felt that Harry resembled “any other boyfriend/husband who was made to go to a Beyonce concert.”

However, some pointed out that Harry helped Meghan to celebrate her mother’s birthday amid his own mourning over the anniversary of Princess Diana’s death. The trio celebrated Doria turning 67 just a day after the anniversary of Diana’s death 26 years ago. But Meghan seemed oblivious to Harry’s gloomy mood as she danced joyfully with her mother.
Markle and her hubby actually have links to Beyonce. The Duchess and Duke of Sussex met in 2019 at the London premiere of The Lion King. And Beyonce later praised Meghan for her courage after the 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview in which she accused the royal family of racial bias.
