THE HEARTWARMING moment Meghan Markle leaned in for a good luck kiss with Prince Harry before he went off to play polo has been caught on camera.

The pair could be seen locked in a passionate embrace as they stood in a car park at Cowarth Park polo club in Ascot, Berkshire, for a charity match, The Sun reports.

The private moment took place on the pair’s second outing as a couple, which comes as yet another indication that Meg and Harry are serious about their relationship.

It also follows revelations Meghan will attend Pippa Middleton’s wedding to hedge fund mogul James Matthews later this month — upping the relationship stakes yet again.

Sparkling Meg, 35, dazzled the crowds as she made the surprise dash to watch her boyfriend, 32, play polo at the event.

The pair were snapped enjoying the intimate moment away from the star-studded crowd on Saturday, before Harry rejoined brother Prince William, 34, on the field.

The kiss appeared to do the lovestruck royal a world of good, as he and William went on to win the game.

Suits star Meghan — who started dating the royal last year — was pictured with his close friend Mark Dwyer and his wife during the event.

An onlooker at the Audi Polo Challenge even said: “Nobody had any idea Meghan was coming, so it was a surprise to see her there.

“She looked an absolute picture of happiness, laughing as the match was played.

“Meg obviously wanted to be there for Harry and to support such a great cause.”

In Coworth he was joined by a galaxy of other big names from the world of film and TV,

Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne, Dr Who actor Matt Smith and Darcey Bussell were also seen.

The two princes are a fixture at the event and were pictured there last year.

Kensington Palace tweeted yesterday afternoon: “Prince Harry is today taking part in the #AudiPoloChallenge, playing in support of his charities @Sentebale and @WellChild.

“The Duke and Prince Harry will play in polo matches once again this summer to raise funds & awareness for charities they support as Patrons.”
