In April, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended the Sentebale Polo Classic in Wellington, Florida with a film crew in tow to shoot scenes for their fourth project with Netflix, a docuseries called Polo. On Tuesday, the series premiered on the streamer, and Meghan and Harry’s day at the tournament is featured in its final episode, and so is the kiss that Meghan planted on Harry when she handed him the championship trophy.
Though the couple aren’t the focus of Polo, which follows a group of professional players through the 2024 season, they do make a brief cameo alongside players Nacho Figueras and Adolfo Cambiaso, who are featured throughout the series. Harry is shown participating in the Sentebale charity tournament, while Meghan cheers him on from the sidelines alongside Figueras’s wife, Delfina Blaquier. The couple’s friend Serena Williams also makes a brief appearance.
The episode shows Harry introducing Meghan to Cambiaso, a professional polo player from Argentina and Harry’s teammate on the day’s winning Royal Salute team. “She’s also fluent in Spanish,” he says, gesturing to his wife. Meghan goes on to tell Cambiaso about her days living in the Buenos Aires neighborhoods of Palermo Viejo and La Cañita. (When the duchess was 20, she interned at the US Embassy in Argentina during her senior year at Northwestern University.)
Polo’s premiere comes nearly two years after their first docuseries, Harry & Meghan, broke records on the streamer. The five-episode series follows Figueras, Cambiaso, and a handful of others through the 2024 polo season. Miloš Balać, the series showrunner, told People that Meghan and Harry were closely involved in the production of the series. “They were wonderful. They were extremely hands-on,” Balać said. “They really had a vision for trying to get polo to be accessible to a wider audience.”
Harry’s experience as a polo player—a passion he shares with his brother Prince William and father King Charles III—also added to his ability to contribute. “To have a polo expert in-house with him was so special,” the showrunner added. “I think a lot of projects have EPs that can give great notes, but it’s rare that you have someone who’s truly an expert in the subject that you are documenting.”
