Prince Harry didn’t share the same energy as Meghan Markle, says expert
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made an appearance at Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party, arriving in elegant attire. Prince Harry wore a black tuxedo with a bowtie and a red poppy pinned to his jacket, apparently in observance of Remembrance Sunday.
Meghan Markle opted out of the poppy but stunned in a form-fitting black top and wrap skirt that showcased her slim figure. Photos of the couple at the event have sparked conversations about their post-royal life, with experts noting that Harry appeared “fed up.” While Meghan smiled broadly for the cameras, Harry seemed less enthusiastic as the pair walked hand-in-hand into the party.

Speaking about the duo's outing, royal expert Tom Bower told the Daily Mail that it must have been a "big plus" for Meghan, having secured an invite to such a star-studded soiree.
However, he noted that "he looks fed up being paraded, one day at a sports match and on another day at a celeb party. Harry is unable to stage the rictus smile which actress Meghan always displays for the cameras."
Expert weighs in on why Prince Harry looked unhappy at birthday bash
Royal expert Tom Bower further suggested that Prince Harry may be worried about his brother, Prince William, especially after the harsh demotion of their uncle, ex-Prince Andrew.
Bower said, “Clearly, he is now worried [about] what revenge his brother might one day carry out against himself and his ambitious wife.”

Last year, Harry and Meghan were not invited to Jeff Bezos’ 60th birthday party, even though it was held near their Montecito home. Bower claimed that since then, Meghan has instructed her staff to secure invitations to major celebrity events to ensure she is noticed in Hollywood.
“The Duchess has become not so much a guest-for-hire but a guest searching for publicity,” he said. “And this time she has landed a major party trophy. For the first time, she is mixing with A-list celebs. That's a great coup for a Duchess searching for security and approval."
The couple’s appearance at Jenner’s birthday bash also came with some drama. Police reportedly responded multiple times to the lavish event after neighbors complained about loud noise at Bezos’ Beverly Hills mansion.
Famous singer Bruno Mars performed live, raising the decibel levels. Police issued only a warning, allowing the party to continue, but returned after reports that massive fake hedges blocking the road had been placed without a permit. The hedges were later removed to comply with local rules.
