Prince Harry has been dragged along to a concert by his wife, Meghan Markle, for the second time in three months—and he’s not happy about it. Or at least, he doesn’t look happy about it. In a video captured by fans that has gone viral on TikTok, the ex-royals can be seen standing next to one another at a Katy Perry concert, with Meghan swaying to the music and Harry looking “bored” and “miserable.”
In September, a similar scene was captured on film at a Beyoncé concert, where Harry again looked bored while Meghan enjoyed the show. Whether Harry just isn’t a fan of concerts or there’s something deeper going on we don’t know for sure, but there are rumors swirling around about Harry wanting to move back to the UK to “get his old life back.” And this showing from him doesn’t help shut down these allegations.

Prince Harry sulks at Katy Perry concert with Meghan Markle
The former Duke and Duchess of Sussex were caught on camera at a recent Katy Perry concert in Las Vegas, and they were not on the same page. The Suits actress seemed to be enjoying the show, swaying and singing along to the music, while Harry looked like he’d rather be anywhere else.
The pair took a private jet to attend the show, and are receiving some backlash from environmentalists, who are comparing the pair to Prince William, who just recently took a commercial plane to Singapore to receive the Earthshot Prize.
Prince Harry reportedly wants his old life back
Royal commentator Phil Dampier claims had some thoughts on the matter, speculating that Harry might be attending these concerts with Megan even though he clearly doesn't want to be there because he has nowhere else to go. "Not only has lost his family, his royal status and military connections, but he’s also lost a lot of friends," Dampier explains.
He continued, "I get the impression he hasn't got a circle of drinking buddies he can unwind within Montecito, which has a population of older people, and I'm sure that takes its toll."
He's "dependent on Meghan for his social life," the royal expert said simply.
Entertainment expert Mark Boardman agrees, telling OK! magazine that "Prince Harry's social life has notably shifted over the past decade." The former Prince of Partying has definitely settled down a lot since meeting Meghan, but it isn't enough for her.
"Meghan is frustrated that Harry wants his old life back," Boardman continued.
Prince Harry does have a few activities he does on his own. Just last month at the Grand Prix in Austin, Texas sans Meghan, and he looked happy as can be...
Fan reactions
Fans felt for Prince Harry, taking to social media to share their thoughts. "He always looks bored…Meghan just drags him along," one user wrote.
"Poor Harry!" another fan commented. "He does his best. Bless him."
"I think it's a big red flag when your significant other essentially forces you to distance yourself from family and friends," one user posted. "He's given up everything for her, and it sounds like he resents it."
But other users had no sympathy for the Prince, writing, "His old life? That's gone forever, due to his own actions."
"Maybe he should have thought of some of the consequences of his actions and his words—something most adults do," another cheeky commenter posted.
