Although they stopped representing the British Royal Family years ago, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to act as if they were still one in the United States, where they have lived since March 2020. This week, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have joined the events. Remembrance Day in England, which serves to honor those members of the armed forces and civilians since the First World War.
The couple moved forward to this date, since two days before they were seen at Camp Pendleton, in San Diego, to meet with military veterans and their families. Through their Archewell foundation, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared several images of this meeting where they wore the traditional insignia of the poppy, the flower that symbolizes this memory of the fallen and worn by all members of the Royal Family.
In addition, Meghan wanted to reinforce this particular tribute with a cardigan from one of her favorite brands that had several embroidered poppies. The protagonist of Suits chose a Carolina Herrera piece in navy blue that had this distinctive symbol that represents the flowers that sprouted in the devastated fields of Flanders after the First World War.
The design, from a new collection, has a price of 1,490 dollars (1,396.24 euros) and it is very difficult to buy it since it is already sold out. Markle combined it with a black skirt from Lafayette 148 New York and matching pumps. He also wore his long hair in waves and soft makeup.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex later honored United States Navy veterans and presided over the dedication of a new Navy SEAL Foundation training base. For this occasion, the actress opted for a Giorgio Armani silk suit valued at almost 4,400 euros. An ensemble consisting of a fitted blazer, palazzo pants that stylized her silhouette, and a matching top with a round neckline.
Once again, the couple wore the poppy insignia on the lapel of their jackets and Meghan opted this time to wear her hair up in an elegant low ponytail with a side part and minimalist jewelry. Her attention was drawn to her nails painted in maroon, a tone that she would not have been able to wear as an active member of the British Royal Family since strict protocol prevents it.
