Inside Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s entourage on ‘date night’ including couple’s lawyer and podcast staff

PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle enjoyed "date night" at a basketball game yesterday.

But instead of spending the evening alone, the couple were joined by their lawyer, PR exec and a load of Archewell employees.

The Team Sussex entourage watched the LA Lakers take on the Memphis Grizzlies from a luxury box.

Also among the celeb-studded crowd were Kim Kardashian, Adam Sandler and Diddy, also known as Sean Combs.

Here we take a look at duke and duchess' inner circle.

Rick Genow

Sitting next to Meghan at the game in Los Angeles, California, was top Hollywood attorney Rick Genow.

The lawyer, founder of powerhouse firm Stone, Genow, Smelkinson, Binder & Christopher, has handled the former actress' legal affairs for years.

Genow, a Harvard graduate, has also represented actor Sir Ben Kingsley and As Good As it Gets star Greg Kinnear.

He featured in The Hollywood Reporter's list of Hollywood's top 100 attorneys in 2018.

Genow is credited as executive producer on the 2015 film
The Wannabe and is given "special thanks" for the comedy Fifty Shades of Black.

ShaMya Williams

ShaMya Williams is also understood to have joined the clan at the Cryptom.com Arena.

She works as the manager of unscripted and audio at Archewell Productions and is based in Los Angeles.

According to her LinkedIn profile, ShaMya joined the organisation in November 2021.

Maren Thomas

Spotted enjoying a glass of wine in front of the Sussexes was Maren Thomas, who manages communications at Archewell.

She works alongside Deesha Tank, though it is unconfirmed if she was also in attendance.

Maren previously held positions at Bully Pulpit Interactive.

Chanel Pysnik

Also cheering on the LA Lakers was Chanel Pysnik, it is believed.

Chanel used to work for Disney+ and CNN, but in 2021 took on the role as head of unscripted at Archewell Productions.

She oversees non-fiction series and documentary film productions, working closely with Netflix.

Andrew Meyer

Meghan's business manager Andrew Meyer was spotted among the Sussex crew.

He has also represented Grey's Anatomy actress Ellen Pompeo, Bad Moms actress Kathryn Hahn, and Succession actor Alexander Skarsgård.

Meyer was among the 600 guests at Harry and Meghan's wedding in 2018.

He has known Genow for almost 20 years.

Miranda Barbot, Barack Obama's former PR guru who now managers comms for Team Sussex, was also likely in the posh NBA seats last night.

Meghan and Harry were caught on camera just days after it was confirmed the prince will attend his father's coronation alone.

Meg will remain at their £12million Montecito mansion with their two children.

The historic ceremony falls on May 6 - the same day as Archie's fourth birthday.
