Meghan Markle enjoyed a special meet-up with Art Historian and Advisor Lauren Rotenberg in London following her high-profile outing in the city.
The Duchess of Sussex made her first public appearance in London since returning to the UK. On June 7, Meghan was spotted with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai at London's Claridge's hotel.
It seems Meghan also met with Lauren on the day, having worn the same outfit for both occasions. The 45-year-old looked stylish in a brown coat from Tove that was layered over a beige sweater from Co and styled with high-waisted tailored pants from Ralph Lauren in an elegant ivory hue. For accessories, Meghan kept things classic with a pair of Saint Laurent loafers, a vintage black leather Chanel bag, and gold jewellery from Logan Hollowell.
Meghan's luscious locks were swept back into a sleek ponytail while her makeup was left natural and radiant, courtesy of a bronze eye and a nude lip.
Meanwhile, Lauren also embraced autumnal dressing in a beige trench coat that was layered over a black sweater and styled with dark gray pants. She accessorized with a simple black leather handbag accented with a gold chain.
Following the reunion, Lauren took to Instagram to share a sweet photograph of the pair. "An absolute pleasure," she penned in the caption.
Prince Harry and Meghan, along with their children Archie and Lilibet, have been adjusting to life back in the UK since relocating in late August. The couple were spotted enjoying a pub date on October 2 at The Falkland Arms in the Cotswolds. Meghan also spent time with her friend Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, on September 21 at The Three Horseshoes pub in Oxfordshire.
"She's there in central London and it's one thing to be discreetly spotted at the table. But then she was photographed coming out in some very elegant clothing with Malala," shared HELLO!'s Royal Editor Emily Nash on HELLO!'s A Right Royal podcast. "It may not be her responsibility at all that that has happened, but what's changed? They must be confident that they are either having or about to have some better security, perhaps? Intriguingly, it seems to deviate from what we were told just a couple of months back."
