Meghan Markle read stories to children in a Los Angeles hospital

Meghan Markle visited a children's hospital in Los Angeles as part of the Make March Matter charity campaign, which helps raise funds for the hospital with the help of celebrities, businesses and the community. She read several fairy tales to the children.

For the exit, Meghan Markle chose a dress with a floral print from Oscar De La Renta, worth $3,490 (about 323 thousand rubles), and black suede shoes with low heels from one of the duchess’s favorite brands, Aquazzura, worth $747 (about 69 thousand rubles).

The Duchess of Sussex, who now lives in Montecito with her husband, Prince Harry, and two children, four-year-old Archie and two-year-old Lilibet, has been appearing in public quite rarely lately. But she made an exception for a charity event to raise funds for hospitals. Meghan Markle remembered her acting skills and read several books to the children, including the one she loved as a child - “Rosie the Riveter.” As part of the “Literal Healing” campaign, 65 thousand books will be donated to the families of patients at the children's hospital, this is an annual event, DailyMail reports.

Meghan Markle herself also became the author of a children's book - she released a collection called “The Bench,” which she began writing when Archie was only a month old. She dedicated her first poem to Prince Harry and her son.

The network recalled that Princess Diana also took part in charity work and visited children's hospitals, in particular, in early 1989, she visited the pediatric AIDS ward at Harlem Hospital during her visit to New York. This was an important step in combating the stigma of the disease - at that time, many did not know exactly how HIV was transmitted, and patients faced discrimination.

Note that two weeks ago Meghan Markle and Prince Harry issued a public message of support to the Princess of Wales, who was recently diagnosed with cancer. “We wish health and healing to Kate and the entire family, and we also hope that they will remain in peace and that their privacy will be respected,” Fox News Digital reports the words of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Some British tabloids believed that this would help reconcile the Dukes of Sussex with the rest of the British royal family. In the meantime, relations between the relatives are strained: insiders say that Prince William “does not trust his brother.”

Due to the fact that the Princess of Wales has disappeared from the public sphere, many rumors have appeared in the press about what is really happening to her. Among other things, the opinion was voiced that she was no longer alive. According to another version, she was very upset by the betrayal of Prince William, who allegedly cheated on her with a family friend, aristocrat Rose Hanbury. The rumors were fueled by the fact that Kate Middleton published a family photo, which quickly showed signs of photoshop, and then an implausible video was leaked to the press, in which inconsistencies were also found. Even in the video where the Princess of Wales spoke about her diagnosis, some saw the ring “disappearing”. This gave rise to a wave of rumors that it was created using artificial intelligence.
