Meghan Markle’s private sentiments about Prince Harry’s deep connection to polo have come to light, highlighting how the sport impacts their daily lives and social dynamics.
A source close to the Sussexes revealed to Closer magazine that polo plays a significant role in Harry’s life.
“Polo is Harry’s life; he put his heart and soul into it. The lack of enthusiasm and harsh critiques around recent events have really affected him.”
While Meghan is supportive of Harry’s passion, she reportedly sees the current challenges as a silver lining.
“Meghan is trying to be understanding, but she’s somewhat relieved,” the insider disclosed.
“She’s hoping this is an opportunity to shift Harry’s focus to other hobbies like surfing and hiking, which they can enjoy together.”
Despite her perspective, Meghan isn’t aiming to eliminate polo entirely. “Obviously, she can’t ban Harry from playing polo,” the source clarified.
“But it’s no secret she’d prefer it not to dominate their lives, especially as she hasn’t really connected with most of the WAGs (wives and girlfriends) in the polo circle.”

Meghan’s expectations of forming new social bonds within the polo community reportedly fell short.
“She thought it would be a great social opportunity, but it hasn’t panned out that way for her,” the insider explained.
The source also hinted at a more strategic shift: “She’s not asking Harry to completely move on from polo, but she’s encouraging him to explore other activities and passions. Given the current climate, he might be more open to the idea.”
The dynamic underscores the balance Meghan and Harry aim to strike between their individual interests and their shared goals, a reflection of their evolving partnership.
Whether Harry chooses to recalibrate his priorities or maintain his dedication to polo remains to be seen, but Meghan’s perspective adds a new layer to the conversation.
