Ms Williams took a break from her Wimbledon preparations to support the newlyweds, who she last saw at the Royal Wedding at St George’s Chapel in Windsor in May.
Prince Harry was competing in a polo match for the second day in a row, after he made a surprise appearance at the British Polo Day in Henley-on-Thames on Friday.
The Duke took on the UAE alongside the US team Valiante on Friday, and raised £200,000 for two of his charities, the Royal Foundation and Sentebale.
Ms Williams attended the Royal Wedding in May alongside husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, and described the event as “super fun”.
Speaking with InStyle, she commented on Meghan’s big day, stating: “You know, I’ve known Meghan for years, so it was good to see my friend happy.”
The tennis superstar drew attention for her Instagram videos which she posted throughout the Royal wedding celebrations.
Commenting on her light-hearted videos, she said: “That’s how I think you should be. I think it should just be really fun and not pressured, you know?
“Sometimes it feels like a lot of pressure. It should be what you want, when you want it, and how you want it.
“That’s kind of how I live my social media life. I just want to be myself.”
The tennis ace has also been linked to the Royal family in the past week after branding the Duchess of Cambridge a “badass” woman.
Asked who she regarded as the strongest and most powerful female role models, Ms Williams placed the Duchess at the top of the list, pointing to her speedy recovery after giving birth to Prince Louis in April.
Outlining her top picks, she said: “Well, obviously Beyoncé. That goes unsaid. Rihanna goes unsaid. Kate Middleton. She’s official No. 1.”
The tennis star has been an outspoken champion of female rights, and played a large part in the fight for equal prize money for female tennis players.
When questioned what constitutes a strong woman in her eyes, she replied: “You have to be confident. Someone who’s a badass is incredibly confident and unapologetically herself.
“And she doesn’t care what anyone else says — but in a positive, not a negative, way. It’s more like standing up for yourself and others.
“The whole #MeToo movement, those women are badass. They’re not afraid to say what’s wrong and what affected them.”
Ms Williams is scheduled to compete in the first round of Wimbledon on Monday, where she will be vying for her 24th Grand Slam singles title.
