Meghan Markle Just Rewore the Green Parosh Dress from Her Engagement Interview
After sporting a relatively casual wardrobe during her and Prince Harry's royal tour of southern Africa, Meghan Markle is once again getting dressed up.
For the second year in a row, the Duchess joined Harry, patron of WellChild, at the WellChild Awards. Last year she opted for a stunning pantsuit from Altuzarra, but this time around, the Duchess wore a simple green dress by Parosh, paired with a neutral-hued coat and suede heels.
Meghan recycled a special dress for today's event: the Duchess chose the same green design she wore to announce her engagement to Prince Harry back in November 2017. While she paired dress with a white wrap coat for her engagement photo call nearly two years ago, Meghan later removed the coat for her BBC interview with Harry, revealing a bow detail on the right side of the waist.
Although it has many of the trappings of a traditional awards ceremony, the WellChild Awards have a special angle. The winners are inspiration children struggling with serious illnesses. Just like last year, Harry and Meghan will take the time to meet with each winner individually ahead of the ceremony.
As Harry's quote reads on the WellChild site, "These awards were created to shine a bright light on an amazingly brave group of children and young people. Life for families caring for seriously ill children is exceptionally tough. And without WellChild it is even tougher."
Tonight's award celebration marks Meghan's first public engagement since the royal tour of southern Africa, while Prince Harry previously attended two royal engagements in Nottingham on October 10.
Memorably, Harry and Meghan's royal tour ended with the couple's surprising announcement that the Duchess had filed a lawsuit against the Mail on Sunday for publishing her private letter. Soon after, news surfaced that the Duke had also filed a lawsuit, this time against the Sun and Mirror.
Royal watchers and the press alike have struggled to understand this move. But a new documentary about the Duke and Duchess's trip to Africa may clear things up: as British news anchor Tom Bradby shared on Twitter, it "will explain a lot when it airs." (That'll be on October 20 in the U.K., for anyone anxiously awaiting its premiere).
Just finished filming a documentary on Harry and Meghan in Africa. I think it will explain a lot when it airs.
