The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will make their first public outing together since returning to the UK, carrying out engagements in Nottingham.
On Thursday, Prince Harry, 42, and Meghan, 45, will visit Community Recording Studio (CRS), where they will watch an acting workshop, according to The Times. The Duke last visited the studio in the St Ann's area of Nottingham in September 2025.
The Sussexes will then join members of the Hubb Community Kitchen at the Himmah food bank.
The Hubb Community Kitchen was set up in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy, which claimed 72 lives in June 2017. Meghan has been a long-time supporter of the group, including writing a foreword for its Together cookbook, published in 2018.

The couple's joint visit to Nottingham will be their first royal-style engagement together since they arrived back. The city is said to hold a special place for the couple, having been the first place they visited following their engagement in 2017.
The Duke and Duchess have reportedly settled in the Cotswolds with their children, Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, moving from Montecito in Santa Barbara, Montecito.
Settling back in the UK
Meghan was spotted enjoying a girls' lunch with former Montecito neighbours Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi at The Three Horseshoes pub in Burford, Oxfordshire in September, as well as a date day with Harry at the Falkland Arms on 2 October.
And after being pictured leaving Claridge's hotel with Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai last week, Meghan shared on Sunday that net proceeds from sales of her lifestyle brand's jams and teas on International Day of the Girl (11 October) would be sent to support the Malala Fund, a non-profit advocating for girls' education.

The Duke was also spotted in the stands at a rugby union match on Friday, watching the Leicester Tigers beat Gloucester at Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium in Leicester.
Skipping royal Christmas
HELLO! understands that the Duke and Duchess will likely spend Christmas with Meghan's mother Doria Ragland, 70, who lives in California, and not with the King at the traditional royal family gathering at Sandringham, Norfolk.
It has been reported in The Times that they are "not going to be invited" to the event and are "not waiting for an invitation".

The following year, they took an extended break from their royal duties and spent time on Vancouver Island in Canada. Just a few months later, in early 2020, they announced their departure as senior royals and moved to the US.
