Harry and Meghan spotted hand in hand before charity polo match

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been spotted smiling and walking hand in hand ahead of Harry’s fundraising polo match in Florida.

Harry wore white trousers, a light blue shirt and a beige jacket – while Meghan sported a cream halterneck dress at the Royal Salute Polo Challenge event in Wellington on Friday.

The Sentebale Polo Cup is held every year in aid of Sentebale, the charity Harry co-founded in 2006 that supports young people and children living in southern Africa.

Harry was seen playing in the match and sporting his team’s blue and white colours while wearing the number two on his sleeve.

His team won the match 3-1 with the duke managing to score the opening goal, according to the Associated Press.

Figueras told reporters at the event that he and Harry “joke a lot about who is going to win” and said the duke is “a very good rider”.

“He’s a very good athlete, he has great eye-hand coordination. He’s very competitive. He’s a very good polo player,” he said.

Polo will be the subject of a new Netflix series which will see the duke and duchess acting as executive producers.

The show will be made by the couple’s Archewell Productions company and will give “unprecedented access to the world of professional polo” and the US Open Polo Championship in Florida, Netflix said.

Sentebale has since expanded its operations to Botswana and works providing support for young people living with HIV, Aids and mental health issues and training related to career development, entrepreneurship and education.

Polo events have raised more than £11.4 million for the charity.
