The pair – who are exploring the western city in Canada this week – shared a grin with the delighted duo, who bumped into the royals during lunch.
In the photo, believed to have been taken yesterday, an excited Meghan, 42, huddles with a smiling mother and her young son.
The little boy seems elated, his arms wide open, clearly excited to meet the couple.
A happy Harry, 39, has his hands in his pockets and smiles nonchalantly in the photo as he leans into the frame.

Meghan wore a chic camel-colored trench coat over matching beige flares and wore a crisp white blouse underneath.
Meanwhile, the Duke of Sussex opted for a gray sweater worn over a button-up, paired with a woolly charcoal cardigan and black jeans. The couple appeared to meet their fans in a cozy cafe.
In the post, social media fans commented on how “effortlessly fashionable” the couple looked.

“Harry and Meghan are aging backwards,” said one poster on X. “Love this photo,” a second added. “I would be the child in the photo with Prince Harry and Meghan.”
‘Harry and Meghan are alive!’ a third written.
It comes as Meghan made a surprise visit to a feminist climate change group on Tuesday.
The Duchess visited the Justice for Girls group to discuss ‘girls’ and young women’s leadership and have a ‘heartfelt conversation’ about ‘justice and equality for teenage girls living in poverty in Canada‘.

She first visited the group in January 2020, just days after she and Prince Harry sensationally announced their plans to leave the royal family.
The royal opted for £1,349 Ralph Lauren Charmain silk wide-leg trousers, which she previously wore to Wimbledon, a white jumper and £46 Edge of Ember ‘Wave’ earrings as she chatted to women at the charity.
She added her favorite Cartier ‘Love’ yellow gold bracelet for £7,050, Princess Diana’s Gold Tank Française Watch and her £15,000 Lorraine Schwartz ‘Against Evil Eye’ bracelet.
The former actress wore her hair sleek and straight and opted for a low-key, natural makeup look, pairing black eyeliner with a creamy pink lip.
Writing on Instagram after the visit, Justice for Girls said: ‘Justice for Girls was delighted to receive a return visit from Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
“Joined by Jessica Lake and Lauri Thompson of the Lake Family’s All One Fund, we had a compelling and heartfelt conversation about justice and equality for teenage girls living in poverty in Canada and around the world.
“Together with our teen interns, staff, directors and board members, we spoke about Justice for Girls’ decades-long commitment to advocating for girls’ access to education, freedom from violence, Indigenous rights and environmental justice.
“A highlight of our conversation was the focus on leadership of girls and young women.
‘The Duchess herself has been a feminist advocate from a young age and was keen to speak to two of our teenage interns to discuss their personal battles for justice.

‘Her sincere and understanding approach made the girls feel heard, supported and inspired.’

The California-based couple watched the Vancouver Canucks beat the San Jose Sharks 3-1 from a VIP box at Rogers Arena, at one point watching the action while hugging and later jumping in the air to score a goal to applaud.
When the Canucks won the game, Harry jumped up and Meghan put down her wine glass so they could both dance to celebrate the win to Simple Minds’ hit Don’t You Forget About Me.
Also with them was Markus Anderson, a friend of Meghan’s from Toronto when she was filming Suits, who helped organize her first date with Harry in London.
Harry’s ceremonial puck drop came 21 years after the late Queen did the same when the same teams played each other in 2002. She was on an 11-date tour of Canada in honor of her golden anniversary.
