Meghan Markle Makes First Public Appearance at Trooping the Colour After Welcoming Archie — See Her Return!
She’s back! Just five weeks after giving birth to her first child, baby Archie, Prince Harry‘s wife, Meghan Markle, made her highly-anticipated post-baby debut at Trooping the Colour 2019.
On Saturday, June 8, the Duchess of Sussex, 37, put her maternity leave on pause for a day to attend the annual Trooping the Colour parade to celebrate Queen Elizabeth‘s birthday. The new mom was spotted sharing a carriage with her husband, 34, Kate Middleton and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall. Prince William and Prince Charles also attended the event.
The former actress turned heads in a navy ensemble designed by Clare Waight Keller, who happens to be the same person who created her wedding dress. Meghan matched her dress wth a blue hat by Noel Stewart.
Meghan, who did not bring the royal baby along, was all smiles upon seeing her fans at the celebration — which also featured 1,400 soldiers in ceremonial scarlet coats and bearskin hats.
