These two lovebirds really like their PDA

A photo speaks a thousand words, especially when it comes to the royal family and their body language. As reserved and proper as they can sometimes be, it's impossible for them not to betray how they're feeling when cameras are catching their every move (take Prince William's wild football game reactions, for example).

And this was certainly true yesterday when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended the 2025 Invictus Games Opening Ceremony in Vancouver, Canada. As they sat next to one another, their body language was on full display—and it said a lot about their relationship and their marriage. (Spoiler alert: They seem madly in love.)

As they sat in the stands of BC Place, surely the Duke of Sussex, 40, and the Duchess of Sussex, 43, knew they were being watched closely. And yet, they seemed fully at ease and comfortable with one another. Their body language was relaxed, playful and, dare I say, quite flirty.

They were photographed leaning into one another, making tons of eye contact and really connecting. In one image, Markle is photographing or videotaping her husband with her phone and he's making a silly face.

During a more serious, emotional portion of the ceremony, their strong bond was evident as the duchess laid her head on the prince's shoulder as he was visibly choked up. This level of physical connection during the high-stakes moment reveals that they truly are there to lean on one another, during the fun and not-so-fun times.

Of course, it wasn't all serious. There was plenty of celebrating and cheering (as evidenced by Markle's blue pom-poms). The way Prince Harry looked at his wife as she cheered was full of love and admiration, both signs of a strong, healthy marriage.

Then, of course, there was the full-on PDA. It wouldn't be a Harry-Meghan outing without some kind of PDA, and in this case, they really delivered. The pair were photographed sharing a passionate kiss, with neither afraid to let the world see, "I'm wild about this person."
