Prince Harry, Meghan Markle make rare public appearance at movie premiere
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were spotted at the premiere of ‘Bob Marley: One Love’ in Jamaica, greeting Prime Minister Andrew Holness and his wife.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped out for a movie night Tuesday while the monarchy deals with a major health saga.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were spotted at the premiere of "Bob Marley: One Love" in Jamaica. The couple were all smiles as they showed their support at the Carib Theatre in Kingston.

Holness shared highlights from the evening on his X.
"Witnessing the premiere of the Bob Marley: One Love Movie right here in Jamaica was truly inspiring," Holness shared. "Bob Marley's legacy continues to resonate deeply with our nation."
The social media post comes on the heels of the Prime Minister of Jamaica speaking out about his country cutting ties with the U.K.
In 2022, Holness told Prince William and Kate Middleton that the British Commonwealth intends to become fully independent in an unexpected announcement that came after other countries considered cutting ties with the monarchy.
Holness also noted at the time that there were "unresolved" issues as he greeted Prince William and MIddleton in his country.

The former British colony would become only the second Caribbean island to sever relations with the U.K. in recent years.
Holness’ announcement surprised many on the island of nearly 3 million people, which caused quite a stir among critics and citizens.
Meanwhile, during the movie premiere in Jamaica, Harry and Markle were also seen posing with Paramount Film chief Brian Robbins and his wife, Tracy James.

Their rare appearance comes one week after the royal palace revealed King Charles III and Kate Middleton’s medical procedures.
