Meghan Markle had her first appearance after the release of her and Prince Harry’s documentary titled Harry & Meghan: An Africa Journey. The moment was so significant since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex received mixed reactions in their interviews in the ITV program.
The mother-of-one looked stunning in her purple dress as she attended the opening ceremony of the One Young World Summit at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Meghan Markle walked confidently to the stage to hug founder Kate Robertson.
Unfortunately, Meghan Markle and Kate Robertson had different things in mind, leaving the Duchess of Sussex with her arms awkwardly hanging in the air as the latter decided to drop into a curtsy at the last minute. Although the wife of Prince Harry made it look like it wasn’t a big deal, she was noticeably startled and, reportedly, looked embarrassed.
In the end, Meghan Markle did get her hug as the two women embraced on stage. The Duchess of Cambridge had been supporting One Young World Summit way before she married Prince Harry, proving that the organization has a special place in her heart.
Meghan Markle’s little blunder happened a week after the release of Harry & Meghan: An Africa Journey, where she and Prince Harry shared some explosive revelations. The Duchess of Sussex revealed the struggles that she had been going through after joining the royal family.
In Harry & Meghan: An Africa Journey, the Duchess of Sussex shared that she had a tough time dealing with all the hate that she was getting. "It's hard. I don't think anybody can understand that,” she said. “I know what it seems like it should be. It’s a very different thing. That’s okay.”
Prince Harry also shocked the world when he released an online rant regarding how the press treated his wife. The Duke of Sussex even sued a couple of publications to teach them some lesson of respect.
This gesture is something unexpected from a royal since most of the members are known for ignoring these fake and hurtful allegations. In fact, Queen Elizabeth would always avoid any controversy as much as possible and had been hoping that the rest would follow her footsteps. Unfortunately for Her Majesty, the tabloids have finally got into Prince Harry's nerves, making him feel like he had no choice but to fight back.
