Sunday famously marked the first meeting between the Duchess of Sussex and Beyoncé, who voices Nala in the new Lion King. The two hugged and expressed their admiration for each other—fans even caught the singer mouthing “my princess” as she embraced Meghan!

This isn't the first time the Sussexes tapped Schwartz's design skills. For his first wedding anniversary, Prince Harry collaborated with the jewelry designer to build an eternity ring for the Duchess of Sussex. The ring features an emerald, sapphire, and peridot stone—the birthstones of Harry, Meghan, and Archie. Harry also had Schwartz resize and reset Meghan’s engagement ring with a new diamond band.
