It’s showtime! Prince Harry and girlfriend Meghan Markle were photographed together for the first time when they stepped out for a date night at the Gielgud Theatre in London’s West End on Wednesday, December 14.
Though reports initially stated the pair saw Peter Pan Goes Wrong, Us Weekly can confirm they went to see the stage adaptation of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. “They had a great time and really enjoyed the show,” a source tells Us. “Meghan’s loving London more and more with every visit. You can say the same thing about Harry too!”
An official Twitter account for the play confirmed their attendance on Thursday, writing, “We were delighted to welcome HRH Prince Harry to last night’s performance at the Gielgud Theatre in London’s West End.”

In photos of their outing published by British newspaper The Sun, the pair were bundled up for their night out. The Suits actress, 35, sported a black coat and matching black beanie, while Harry, 32, wore a dark green blazer and blue hat. The royal seemed to be pointing something out to Markle in one snap.
As Us Weekly previously reported, Markle flew from Toronto, where she shoots the USA drama Suits, to the U.K. on Sunday for a last-minute trip before the couple’s upcoming romantic getaway. “Harry and Meghan weren’t going to see each other until the vacation, but they really wanted to see each other,” a source told Us. “Meghan had an overwhelming few days in Toronto — cameras everywhere she went, feeling like she was being followed.… This is all very surreal to her. She feels safe with Harry.”
The Horrible Bosses actress has been staying with Harry at his Nottingham Cottage home at Kensington Palace. They also ventured out on Monday to buy a Christmas tree at Pines and Needles in Battersea Park. They purchased a 6-foot Norman’s fir, which Harry carried home, a shop staffer told Us.
