We All Missed Prince Harry Rubbing Meghan Markle's Back at an Event
If you think you saw all the sweet moments from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent appearance at the WellChild Awards this week, think again. A newly-surfaced video from the event reveals an interaction royal fans might've missed: the Duke of Sussex giving the Duchess a little back rub during the engagement.
In the clip, which is originally from a foreign news outlet, Harry and Meghan are seated while speaking to a young girl attending the ceremony, Cosmopolitan points out. During the conversation, the prince sneaks in a small rub on his spouse's back.

Later in the evening, Harry was seen putting his hand on Meghan's back again while they made their exit.
The Sussexes are no strangers to PDA, as royal fans are well aware. Their shows of affection have ranged to their frequent hand-holding to a rare kiss, depending on the nature of the event. More formal engagements have understandably seen less displays of affection.
For example, the couple noticeably didn't touch during the Queen's Young Leaders Awards back in June, because it was a formal affair at Buckingham Palace in the presence of Her Majesty.

In spite of the PDA at Tuesday's event, the couple's cutest moments were with the young attendees that night. (The WellChild Awards honors children with serious illnesses and their caretakers.)
In fact, when Harry was rubbing Meghan back, they were speaking to a 10-year-old girl named Scarlett, who was highlighted for helping her sister, who has a disability. The Duke of Sussex praised Scarlett in his speech, pointing out her "determination and incredible spirit."
