25 of Prince Harry & Meghan Markle’s Best PDA Moments

They may officially be known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but let's be honest here, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle really should be called the Duke and Duchess of PDA. They're always all up on each other! In a tasteful way, of course. But as far as members of the British royal family go, Meghan and Harry really do take the cake when it comes to being touchy-feely with each other.  

It's actually kind of refreshing. For so long, appearing ultra-prim-and-proper at all times was de rigeur for the royal family, but Meg and Harry have bucked royal protocol at seemingly every turn.

Almost as soon as they started dating, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were touching each other in public. It started off semi-small — as in a sneaky hand-holding stint at the Invictus Games — but then the couple kicked it up a notch at their engagement photo call. And then in their engagement interview? The two were basically one! It was adorable. Their love and affection for each other is undeniable.

No matter where Harry and Meghan are, or what they're doing, they seem to always be conscious of each other's body in some way, shape, or form. Whether it's in the form of holding hands, linking arms, playing with each other's hair, or full-on smooching, Harry and Meghan are the reigning king and queen of PDA. We absolutely love how authentic they are with each other.

Here are 25 of their cutest PDA moments. Make no mistake about it: These two are crazy about each other. Cover your eyes, Archie!

Wedding Day Romance

Of course Harry and Meghan's first kiss as husband and wife was recorded for the world to see, but the newly married couple was definitely overcome with affection for each other throughout their big day. They were caught kissing at various points during their wedding day, including when they left the church and were riding in the carriage together to go change before the reception.

Pure Joy

Meghan and Harry truly enjoy just being together. They are so intertwined all the time and there's an obvious connection between the two of them. We love seeing them smile ear to ear when they are with each other. The closeness they share is evident in the way they hold onto each other.

These two are always arm-in-arm. You can tell that they are committed to supporting each other no matter what. They support each other emotionally, in their careers, and physically when they make public appearances. They've each expressed that being in the public eye is challenging for them, and they clearly rely on each other to get through those experiences.

It's All in a Look

This is one of our favorite photos of Meghan and Harry. It was taken during their royal tour of South Africa, and they looked like they were having the best time ever in a gorgeous destination. We love the way they always make sure to maintain a physical connection, even in the middle of chaos.

Lean on Me

We don't know how Meghan managed her rigorous schedule of official royal appearances while she was pregnant with baby Archie, but however she did it, Harry was there to help and support her. She literally leaned on him during a baby shower that was held for them by their patronages.

Oh, Hey

When you're trying to say hi to a crowd of adoring fans, but also, you're into holding your man's hand. Don't break the connection no matter what! This royal couple is so, so into each other they manage to engage with the public without breaking the attention they give one another.

The Look of Love

Not only is this photo super cute, because, technically, it was Harry and Meghan's PDA coming-out party at the Invictus Games, look at Meghan looking at Harry. So darling! Not many people knew it yet, but they had already been a couple quite awhile when they made their public debut, so the bond was already set.

Christmas Love

While Prince William and Kate Middleton are keeping it profesh in the background as is the norm for them, Harry and Meghan are holding on for dear life. This level of public attention isn't easy for Meg and Harry, so they almost always stay close to each other during these sort of engagements.

Engagement Boos

There was no mistaking the fact that Meghan and Harry were (and are!) in love at the photo call for their engagement. This was such a big deal! It was truly an iconic moment for the royal family and we love that Meghan and Harry maintained their connection with each other the entire time. It was all about them.

Just an Arm

If they're not holding hands, they're holding the smalls of each other's backs. That's just the way it goes, people. They are definitely not embarrassed to be affectionate with each other, even in the public eye. They prioritize each other and their relationship above all else, which is probably a good sign for the longevity of their union.

Hair Police

One of the cutest things Prince Harry has ever done? Flatten out Meghan Markle's hair on a windy day. What a guy! It's rare to see a royal with a hair out of place, and Harry knows it, so he made sure to fix Meg up just right. It was such a sweet and genuine gesture from a caring partner.

Pickpocket

What's going on there, Harry? Is digging in your wife's pocket the new hand holding over in Britain? Maybe Harry's hand was cold. More than likely he was checking her pocket for something, but it still looks cute. There's a certain closeness between them that we're not really used to seeing from the royal family.

Serious Hand-Holding

Even when Prince Harry looks super serious, he's still always got his wife's hand in his. Actually, it's really sweet. They keep a good grip on each other. We think it's pretty obvious that Meghan and Harry are both physical people that need to maintain a tangible connection in order to feel love. Yeah, we think we've got their love language figured out.

Animal Friends

Even when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are meeting new animal friends, they want to make sure their relationship status is known. They are a unit no matter what they are doing. It really seems like their partnership is so steady, and maybe a big part of that is their commitment to physical touch in any situation.

Double Serious

And even when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are both feeling serious, they grab each other's hands. They are there for each other all the time. Happy or sad, serious or playful, Meghan and Harry hold onto each other through thick and thin and always back each other up. They definitely present a united front.

The Double Double

What's better than holding your wife's hand with one of your hands? Holding your wife's hand with BOTH of your hands. Harry is so protective of Meghan in all situations. After what happened to his mother, Princess Diana, it's no surprise he takes special care to guard her everywhere they go.

Heads Together

Heads Together may be the name of Prince William and Kate Middleton's charity, but Harry and Meghan are the embodiment of it. As they've proven since they moved to the US, Meghan and Harry prefer to keep their private life private, so we now know why the were always sharing whispers during public appearances.

Date Night Love

Look at these two dapper, PDA-loving members of the royal family. Well done, Queen Elizabeth: You've got quite a family. They definitely know how to show up and show out for an event. They have that power couple strut totally down, even while holding hands they are slaying.

Side Hug

Here, Prince Harry is kind of hugging Meghan Markle, but not really. To us, this counts as PDA. Sorry, guys. We still can't get over what supportive guy Harry is. Even while walking he manages to embrace his wife and it's really so endearing. He is always there for her when she needs it, as far as we can tell.

One Touch

There he goes again. It's obvious: Sometimes Prince Harry just can't resist touching his lovely wife. She is drop-dead gorgeous and she looked amazing in this all-green ensemble, so we totally get it. It's clear he's not willing to risk her ever not knowing exactly how he feels about her. We're into it, guys.

Butt Grab

The mother of all PDAs: Harry grabbing Meghan's butt! Get it, Harry! Who cares if the paps are watching, Meghan looked incredible while pregnant with Archie and her booty was definitely on point. Harry clearly couldn't resist copping a little feel, and who are we to blame him?

Getting Handsy

Prince Harry doesn't know who to hold closer — his suit jacket or his wife. We say Meghan, Harry! But then again, he always holds her hand, so we think he knows that already. We don't think these two will ever stop gripping onto each other, although we can't help but wonder if it's because Meg's so often expected to be in teetering high heels.

Heart Eyes

More than their hand-holding in this sweet picture, we love how Prince Harry is looking at Meghan. They both speak volumes with their eyes and we love that they seem to always be sharing some secret, special moment between them. From their embraces to their gazes, there's just so much love on display between Meghan and Harry.

Holiday Hugs

Again, while the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge leave a little room between them, Meghan and Harry have become one. Their body language makes it crystal clear that they care more about each other than they do about all of the pomp and circumstance surrounding royal life.

Summer Lovin'

What's better than seeing Harry and Meghan looking all glowy and summery? Seeing them looking all glowy and summery while holding hands and with a baby in Meghan's belly. They looked especially joyful and connected while Meghan was expecting Archie. Harry really makes an effort to tend to her needs at all times.
