Meghan Markle is showing some social media love to Prince Harry, posting a rare and playful video of her husband surfing in California.

On Thursday, Aug. 22, the Duchess of Sussex posted a video on Instagram of Harry surfing, set to Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue's 1993 hit "Whatta Man."

She captioned the clips: "We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you this important message: 🦊."

In October 2024, professional surfer Raimana Van Bastolaer shared footage of him riding waves at Kelly Slater's Surf Ranch.

Van Bastolaer praised the prince in his caption: "In Tahiti, we still call you Prince Harry but at Surfranch, it’s my Brother. It was an honor to have you surf with me & @kellyslater @michaelanders_ at @kswaveco."

The surf tribute comes just days after Meghan marked her 44th birthday.

She posted a photo of herself blowing out candles with the caption: "Blowing out the candles on a beautiful 24 hours, and thanking my husband, friends and family for making it so special. To those of you I don’t know, but who send love every day — thank you so much. Please know I feel it and appreciate it ❤️."

Meghan is also preparing for the return of her Netflix series "With Love, Meghan," which launches its new season on Aug. 26.
