The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, stepped out for a glamorous Hollywood affair on Saturday, joining a host of global celebrities at Kris Jenner's 70th birthday celebration. The lavish party, held at the $165 million Beverly Hills mansion of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, embraced a thrilling James Bond theme.
A Star-Studded Guest List
Kris Jenner, renowned for her legendary parties, chose the 007 motif as a clever play on the number 70 for this milestone birthday. Her previous 60th was inspired by The Great Gatsby. Insiders confirmed that the exclusive event, attended by 300 invited guests, was kept private with no reality TV cameras present, though a music star was reportedly scheduled to perform.
Fashion and Arrival on the Red Carpet
As they arrived, the couple presented a study in contrasts. Prince Harry maintained a stern expression, dressed in a classic black tuxedo and bow tie. In a poignant nod to his British heritage and the upcoming Remembrance Day, he wore a false poppy on his lapel. Meghan, however, was radiant, holding her husband's hand and flashing a broad smile.
For the black-tie theme, the Duchess of Sussex showcased her style in a figure-hugging black top paired with a chic wrap skirt that featured a daring leg slit. The birthday girl herself, Kris Jenner, commanded attention in a sumptuous strapless crimson gown with a voluminous, frill-detailed skirt and a train. She completed her look with an elegant updo, dazzling drop earrings, and a pair of sophisticated black opera gloves.
Speculation and Celebrations
Her longtime partner, Corey Gamble, 44, arrived in a more casual ensemble of a black t-shirt and trousers, accessorised with gold jewellery and carrying a jumbo-sized bottle of wine. The celebration was not without its own intrigue, as unconfirmed reports surfaced suggesting the birthday party could potentially be a decoy for a surprise wedding for the couple after their 11-year romance.
The event solidifies the Sussexes' continued presence in elite Californian social circles, marking another high-profile appearance since their move to the United States.
