The couple surprised concert-goers at one of Elton John’s farewell gigs in California by recording a special message. The video was played before the iconic singer’s concert at Dodger Stadium, which was recorded for Disney+.
In the personal message, Harry, 38, thanked the singer for being a friend, not only to his late mom Princess Diana but to him and his young children Archie, 3, and Lilibet Diana, 1, too.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex also revealed that they attended one of Elton’s long-running globe-trotting farewell tour shows.
“Hi Elton, we just wanted to say congratulations,” Meghan, 41, said at the start of the couple’s video message.
Harry then chimed in with his “congratulations” before Meghan added, “And we are just so proud of you. We’re so grateful that we were able to see you on your farewell tour also.”
“And thank you for entertaining everybody for so many decades,” Harry added. “Thank you for being the friend that you were for my mum, thank you for being our friend. Thank you for being friends with our kids and thank you for entertaining people right around the world.
“Even though this is officially your retirement, this will not be your last gig, we know that. But we love you and congratulations on an incredible career,” he concluded.
At the end of the video, Meghan lovingly rested her head on Harry’s shoulder.
