Prince Harry leaves Meghan at home to attend Super Bowl with cousin Princess Eugenie

Prince Harry hit Sunday’s Super Bowl game with his cousin Princess Eugenie – but there was no sign of his wife Meghan.

The rebel royal, 37, was snapped with his cousin at Los Angeles‘ Crypto Stadium for Sunday night’s game. They sat in luxurious leather seats inside a private box. 

Both Harry and Eugenie, 31, wore masks, in accordance with Los Angeles County rules ordering KN95 or N95-grade masks for outdoor events attended by large audiences.  

Their presence at the star-studded event was announced by the NFL itself. 

NFL UK’s Twitter account shared a snap of them and wrote: ‘Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie in the house at #SBLVI.’  

Although it comes as no surprise Harry would attend what is arguably America’s biggest event of the year – despite having previously claimed the spotlight of royal life had taken a heavy burden on him – it is unusual he was not accompanied by his wife.

Some social media users initially mistook Eugenie for Meghan, but the 40 year-old former-actress was nowhere to be seen. 

The couple, who wed in 2018 and live in nearby Montecito, are parents to Archie, two, and eight month-old Lilibet. 

They dramatically quit royal life in early 2020, and are now carving out a niche for themselves as professional do-gooders after signing huge deals with Netflix and Spotify. 

Harry is also set to publicly spill all on his relationship with his estranged family in an explosive $20million memoir due to be published later this year. The Queen, Prince Charles and Prince William are said to have been completely blindsided by news of the book.

The ex-royal secretly collaborated with Pulitzer-winning ghostwriter JR Moehringer for more than a year now to pen what publishers have described as ‘the definitive account of the experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons that have helped shape him’.

Meantime, the royal family is battling scandal surrounding Eugenie’s disgraced dad Prince Andrew who is facing a civil rape claim in the United States, from Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre.

Andrew, 61, denies the charges against him.

He retired from public life in the UK in the wake of a disastrous TV interview, and faced further disgrace after his close pal Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of being a pedophile late last year. 

The disgraced prince was also stripped of his royal title and remaining military and charitable affiliations. He must now fight the claims of rape and sexual assault in the US courts as a private citizen.
