The Suits star declared she’s in her ‘concert era’ in the caption of her post.

Meghan also thanked the legendary musician, 77, after he appeared to gift her with some signed copies of his pop-up book, ‘Sweet Baby James.’

One snap showed the couple with their arms around each other as they posed with the Grammy winner for a group photo. 

In another, the As Ever founder was seen leaning over Taylor as he autographed two copies of his book.

Meghan opted for a laid-back look, wearing a dark cashmere sweater and black pants.

The ‘With Love, Meghan’ star’s raven tresses cascaded down her shoulders in loose bouncy locks.

Harry — who was recently captured on a doorbell camera outside a stranger’s house — matched her casual attire in a grey t-shirt with a tweed jacket, a pair of black jeans, and a grey beanie.

The Duke of Sussex also posed for a solo snap with Taylor, who sported a blue t-shirt, grey pants and a newsboy cap. 

A fourth image showed Taylor performing onstage during the show at the Santa Barbara Bowl. 

Meghan’s Instagram comments are turned off, so fans were not able to share their reactions.

Taylor is an iconic American singer-songwriter and guitarist who rose to prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Some of his most famous songs include ‘Fire and Rain,’ ‘You’ve Got a Friend,’ ‘Carolina in My Mind,’ ‘Shower the People,’ and ‘Your Smiling Face.’

The outing comes just days after Meghan and Harry were spotted dancing the night away at the fifth night of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour in California in a series of sweet behind-the-scenes snaps.

The couple were among thousands of fans who crowded into the SoFi Stadium on Friday, as the artist performed her last show in Los Angeles before heading to Chicago.

Afterwards, Beyoncé shared a photograph of the royals on her website, capturing the grinning couple as they cozied up inside the luxurious VIP lounge to watch the Crazy in Love singer perform. 

Among the four snaps shared by the Suits actress was one of Harry posing with Taylor

Meghan also took to her own Instagram, to share a glimpse to her and Harry’s night on the town among the crowds of adoring Beyhive fans, with the Duke planting a kiss on her cheek during the show.

Meghan shared a series of smiley snaps of herself, Harry and friends, sporting cowboy hats, in keeping with the tour’s theme, as they swayed to various hits from the Cowboy Carter album.

Another short video showed the Duchess appear emotional while she cheers on the superstar songstress as she sings her hit song 16 carriages, while sitting on a floating American-style car.

Alongside the series of jubilant photos, she penned: ‘About last night… Thank you Beyonce and team for an amazing concert (and a very fun date night) All love.’

Fans also snuck footage of Prince Harry from nearby seats, with the Duke somewhat awkwardly shuffling around as his wife danced in front of him.

Following Beyonce’s cowboy dress code, Meghan sported a tight denim dress, while Prince Harry sported a dark green cowboy hat with ‘My Love’, Lili and Archie inscribed inside alongside a US and UK flag.

She wore her hair up for the night, and was later spotted wearing her husband’s hat as the concert amped up with a remixed rendition of Texas Hold ‘Em.

The Halo singer – who kicked off her tour just over year and a half after she wrapped up her whirlwind Renaissance World Tour — has welcomed Harry and Meghan to her shows previously.

In 2023, the royals attended the Renaissance World Tour, also at the SoFi Stadium, where Prince Harry once again appeared less than impressed – and more interested in his phone.

It comes just days after the two were spotted dancing the night away at the fifth night of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour in California in a series of sweet behind-the-scenes snaps

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had attended the concert to celebrate the 67th birthday of Meghan’s mother Doria Ragland – but this was far from the first time the royal couple had crossed paths with Beyoncé.

In fact, in 2019, Queen Bey accepted a Brit Award in front of a portrait showing Meghan as a royal version of the Mona Lisa.

In a post explaining why they had decided to put Meghan in the frame, the power couple wrote: ‘In honour of Black History Month, we bow down to one of our Melanated Monas. Congrats on your pregnancy! We wish you so much joy.’

Beyoncé publicly praised Meghan’s bravery after the Sussexes’ bombshell interview with Oprah, during which the Duchess claimed to have been subjected to racist treatment within the Royal Family.

Beyoncé posted on her website: ‘Thank you Meghan for your courage and leadership. We are all strengthened and inspired by you.’

In one episode of their Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex claimed to have received a supportive text from Queen Bey.

She told the camera crew: ‘Beyoncé just texted, just checking in… I still can’t believe she knows who I am…’ She said she wants me to feel safe and protected.

‘She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability and thinks I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed.’

The couples previously had a cringe-inducing meeting with the pop megastar and her husband Jay-Z during The Lion King premiere in 2019.

The famous couples met up on the red carpet and engaged in small talk, with Beyoncé reportedly calling Meghan ‘my princess’.

However, things took an awkward turn when the Sussexes spoke to the film’s director Jon Favreau and appeared to ask him if there were any voiceover roles available for Meghan.

Video of the encounter showed Beyoncé covering her face before uncomfortably looking away, with social media users suggesting she was cringing over the exchange.

There was to be a similar exchange later in the evening when Prince Harry touted his wife’s acting chops to Disney CEO Bob Iger.

During conversation, Harry asks: ‘You do know she does voiceovers?’

Iger can be heard replying: ‘Ah, I did not know that.’ Harry then responds: ‘You seem surprised. She’s really interested.’ The Disney chief then says: ‘We’d love to try. That’s a great idea.’
