Did you feel something in the air change? Perhaps a little bit of magic and awe? Can you feel … the love tonight? Well, that’s probably because Meghan Markle and Beyoncé, two duchesses in their own ways, have finally met in person. The two were seen chatting at the London premiere of Disney’s The Lion King on Sunday, probably talking about how amazing they both are. A royal correspondent for The Daily Mail posted videos of the two, ahem, royals’ interaction on Twitter, saying there was “lots of baby chat” between Markle, Prince Harry, Bey, and Jay-Z.
Markle attended the event alongside her husband a day after cheering on close friend Serena Williams at Wimbledon. While the former Suits actress attended her fair share of movie premieres pre-royal status, this marks her first red-carpet appearance as the Duchess of Sussex. Additionally, this appears to be the first time Markle and Beyoncé have met, at least publicly, although Bey hasn’t been afraid to show her admiration for the duchess in the past. During her and Jay-Z’s BRIT Awards acceptance video in February, she posed in front of a portrait of Markle. “In honor of Black History Month, we bow down to one of our Melanated Monas,” Beyoncé wrote on her Instagram. “Congrats on your pregnancy! We wish you so much joy.”
