Prince Harry and Meghan Markle dine and bond with Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez at Miami restaurant
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle seem to have departed Canadian shores at least for the moment and were spotted having dinner with another power couple, Jennifer Lopez and her fiancé Alex Rodriguez.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex bonded with the singer and the former baseball star on Thursday, February 6, at the Habitat, a luxurious restaurant inside the 1 Hotel South Beach in Miami, according to Page Six.
"Harry and Meghan got on really well with Jennifer and Alex, and spent some time chatting with them over dinner," a witness at the restaurant revealed. "J-Lo was overheard inviting the couple and their baby Archie to her and Alex’s house in Miami to spend time with them and their kids.
The dinner followed shortly after Harry and Meghan made their first public appearance since quitting the royal family by giving keynote speeches at the JP Morgan 'billionaire's summit' that was held in the same city.
Attendees at the summit reportedly included the likes of Patriots owner Bob Kraft, billionaire philanthropist Robert Frederick Smith, basketball legend Magic Johnson, and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Harry is said to have spoken openly about a variety of subjects, including his and Meghan's decision to step away from royal life, his mental health, and his years seeing a therapist to deal with trauma over the death of his mother, Princess Diana.
He also talked about their struggle to deal with the British media and how they hoped for more privacy and normalcy as they start their new lives in North America.
Harry and Meghan may have earned as much as $1M from that appearance alone, according to the Daily Mail, and could be set for a year where they earned north of nine-figures.
"Harry and Meghan will be the highest-paid speakers that exist on the corporate market," said Ronn Torossian, CEO of New York-based firm 5W Public Relations. "I would not be shocked if they earned in excess of $1million [for the address]. Over the year their earning power could be unlimited."
