Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan were seen out and about in Canada on Monday while making an appearance at the Vancouver Canucks hockey game.
The Duke of Sussex took the ice and made the first puck drop in the matchup between Vancouver and the San Jose Sharks. Harry and Meghan then caught the remainder of the game from box seats.
This isn’t the first time a British royal family member has dropped the first puck during a Vancouver Canucks and San Jose Sharks game. The late Queen Elizabeth II did so during a trip to Canada in 2002 in recognition of her Golden Jubilee.
The night out follows Meghan’s outing at Variety's Power of Women gala last week where she stole the show.
On the red carpet, Duchess Meghan told the outlet she had "so many exciting things on the slate" and couldn't wait to announce them. "I'm just really proud of what we're creating," she said. "My husband is loving it, too. It's really fun."
In October, the couple spoke at a panel discussion on youth mental health coordinated by their Archewell Foundation in New York City as part of a second annual mental health awareness festival hosted by a nonprofit called Project Healthy Minds.
The couple will be back in Canada next year for the seventh iteration of the Invictus Games, founded by the Duke of Sussex and set to be held in Vancouver and Whisker.
The goal of the games "is to give soldiers who are wounded, injured or ill in body and soul a greater awareness and recognition in society and to support their path in rehabilitation," according to its website. Harry created the games following his deployment in Afghanistan and attending the US Warrior Games in 2013.
