Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made their first public appearance together since the coronation of King Charles III when they were spotted enjoying a date at the renowned Sushi Bar in Montecito. However, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were not alone on this occasion.
In photos published by TMZ, the couple was apparently seen dining with Gwyneth Paltrow and her husband, TV producer Brad Falchuk. The foursome was also joined by Cameron Diaz and her husband, Benji Madden, as well as Bumble CEO and founder Whitney Wolf Herd and her husband, Texas oil heir Michael Herd.
Meghan wore a brown satin “Napoleon” mini-dress by Heidi Merrick, with long, fitted sleeves. She paired it with an off-white bucket bag from Cesta Collective and a pair of brown leather Hermes “Oran” sandals. She completed her look by pulling her long hair back into a ponytail and adding a pair of gold earrings.
Harry meanwhile wore white trousers, a black T-shirt, and brown suede shoes.

The sushi place has “an intimate counter housing 10 prized seats where you will sit right up to the chef’s cutting boards”.
“Relax and enjoy as the chefs prepare a playful reverie on new wave nigiri and other delicacies from both land and sea in a free form interpretive take on the traditional sushi counter experience where you can expect unexpected riffs on beloved standards,” it says on its website.
A plate of food at this sushi restaurant can cost $165 per person if eaten from its omakase menu, and diners have to pay a $25 deposit to secure a reservation.
