It’s always nice when we get a glimpse of Prince Harry outside, doing something cool. Last night, Harry was in Los Angeles for a special event. He was supporting his good friend Jose Andres, at the launch of Andres’ newest cookbook. It was apparently a star-studded affair, if you consider big-name chefs to be A-list celebrities (I absolutely do).
The Duke of Sussex stepped out for a solo evening in Los Angeles on Monday, attending the launch of José Andrés’s new cookbook at San Laurel in the Conrad Los Angeles hotel.
Prince Harry, 41, was photographed looking smart in a navy suit alongside the celebrated Spanish-American chef.
His latest publication, Spain My Way, showcases recipes from his homeland spanning his distinguished culinary career.
The event drew an impressive guest list, with conductor Gustavo Dudamel, journalist Maria Shriver, actress Kyra Sedgwick, actor Tyler James Williams, and renowned chefs Wolfgang Puck and Roy Choi all in attendance.
The father-of-two’s night out comes just days before Princess Lilibet turns five on Thursday, June 4. Last year, the young royal enjoyed a particularly special celebration when her parents whisked her off to Disneyland.
They already took the kids to Disneyland close to Archie’s birthday, I don’t know if they’ll go again so soon for Lili’s birthday. But it’s possible – it feels like Meghan and Harry enjoy Disneyland just as much as the kids. As for Harry turning up for Chef Andres… in 2024, Prince William tried to “poach” Chef Andres, and once Andres was given a spot on Earthshot’s board, William gleefully gloated to royal reporters about how Andres had chosen a side. Soon after, Andres happily posed for photos with Prince Harry at the Clinton Global Initiative. Andres has repeatedly defended the Sussexes, and he also appeared on With Love, Meghan (as did Roy Choi). Basically, Andres has already chosen a side.

Santa Barbara, CA Prince Harry and wife Meghan appear together at the One805 Live! event at Kevin Costner’s Santa Barbara polo field to honor first responders. The couple arrived together at around 5pm (Sept 20). They greeted well wishers in the backstage area and went to a VIP section. Meghan appeared briefly onstage with Harry as he gave an award to a first responder called Sam Dudley who helps colleagues with their mental health issues via a ‘Peer Support’ scheme. Meghan left the stage after Harry said to her ‘Oh hi hi hi’ and said nothing. She was criticized when she appeared at the same event two years ago for taking the spotlight away from those being paid tribute. Harry also made friends with and kissed the Sam’s dog, Rhonda. There was no sign of Kevin Costner himself at the event. Also spotted in the crowd were Rob Lowe, Oprah Winfrey and Maria Shriver.
