Meghan, Harry hobnob with Oprah, Kevin Costner at glitzy Santa Barbara fundraiser

From actual royalty to Hollywood royalty.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle took center stage on the star-studded One805 Live! charity event in Santa Barbara on Friday.

The couple — who’ve just returned from the Invictus Games in Germany — appeared of their element as they hobnobbed with fellow guests Oprah Winfrey and Ellen Degeneres on the frundraiser, held at Kevin Costner’s $26 million estate.

Other VIP guests included the parents of Katy Perry, in addition to Maroon 5, who treated guests to a live performance.

General admission tickets for One805 Live! cost $350, while a table of “last likelihood tickets” was advertised for $12,000. The event raises funds for First Responder agencies in Santa Barbara County.

Harry, 39, kept things casual in a black shirt and blazer, while Markle, 42, covered up in a trendy monochrome coat. She wore her hair back in a decent bun and was seen flashing her $20,000 Cartier Tank watch, which previously belonged to Princess Diana.

Harry and Markle were also seen on stage on the event, speaking with Costner before he took to the microphone to handle attendees.

‘Good afternoon, everyone,” the “Yellowstone” star stated. “I get asked loads by my friends who haven’t any manners … “Kev, what’s this place cost, what’s it value?” I can just simply let you know on a day like today, it’s value every penny.”

Costner has recently been embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with estranged wife, Christina Baumgartner.

Earlier this week, the star settled the contentious court case along with his ex, agreeing to pay more cash than was initially stated within the prenup.

Costner didn’t reference his highly-publicized divorce, as a substitute praising Santa Barbara County’s First Responders.


Harry and Markle reside in Montecito, one of the most upmarket areas of Santa Barbara County, so it was perhaps no surprise to see the couple turn out to support the fundraiser for their local community.

However, the pair are purportedly plotting a move further south, eyeing an $8 million mansion in Malibu.

In addition to their recent appearance on the Invictus Games, Harry and Markle have been making more frequent public appearances over the past month.

The pair were spotted in attendance at Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” Tour concert in Los Angeles on Sept. 1.
